Cities cover just 2 of the world&s surface but consume 75 of the world&s resources Global food production increased by 145 in the last 4 decades of the 20th century
- yet an estimated 800 million people are still hungry In 2005 British supermarkets sent half a million tonnes of edible food to landfill
- the whole food sector put together sent 17 million tonnes One quarter of the British population is obese
- one in three meals we eat is a ready meal WHY? The relationship between food & cities is fundamental to our every day lives Food shapes cities & through them it moulds us
- along with the countryside that feeds us The gargantuan effort necessary to feed cities arguably has a greater social & physical impact on us & our planet than anything else we do Yet few of us are conscious of the process & we rarely stop to wonder how food reaches our plates Hungry City examines the way in which modern food production has damaged the balance of human existence & reveals that we have yet to resolve a centuries-old dilemma
- one which holds the key to a host of current problems from obesity the inexorable rise of the supermarkets to the destruction of the natural world Carolyn Steel follows food on its journey
- from the land (and sea) to market & supermarketkitchen to table waste-dump & back again
- exploring the historical roots & the contemporary issues at each stage of food&s cycle She shows how our lives & our environment are being manipulated but explains how we can change things for the better Original inspiring & written with infectious enthusiasm & belief Hungry City illuminates an issue that is fundamental to us all WINNER OF THE RSL JERWOOD AWARD
