Waste, Uncovering the Global Food Scandal – Tristram Stuart Paul Kingsnorth, author of Beast, and The Wake, and general agitator for (un)civilisation shows how Tristram Stuart’s exploration into food production and waste, uncovers some shocking truths: “This is one of those books that everybody should read, but that too few probably will. In particular, it should be read by every politician, bureaucrat, restaurateur and sandwich manufacturer in Britain; anyone with a kitchen and an appetite will benefit, if that is the right word, from reading Waste. It may well change your view of the way we treat food forever. And that goes for those of you who, like me, smugly compost their kitchen waste, grow their own veg, re-use plastic bags and try not to buy any more packaging than necessary. However hard you try, Stuart shows that you are probably contributing to the biggest, most wasteful system of food production the world has ever seen […] [However,] there are solutions: this is the book’s final, hopeful message. Stuart provides us with a manifesto for what he calls “Utrophia” – a land of good eating. He wants to scrap output-based farm subsidies, impose mandatory food-waste production targets on companies, ban the sending of waste food to landfill, ban the discarding of “bycatch” in the fishing industry, and much more. It’s a workable, well-researched and practical plan which only awaits a political party to start making it happen.” Read the full review from the Independent here: http://ind.pn/2jGCeHf
