How can we eat well without harming the planet?


The way we produce food today is damaging people and nature alike. Intensive farming, pesticide-heavy crops and ultra-processed foods are bad for our health and for the environment.


But there is real cause for hope. From supporting more sustainable farming to wasting less and rethinking what we eat, Dave Goulson shows that positive change is possible — and that everyday choices really do matter.


Clear, practical and optimistic, Eat the Planet Well cuts through confusion to help us navigate the decisions we face every day, and points the way towards a healthier future.

Everyone needs to read this book. Brilliantly explained, scientifically driven and yet pragmatic and personal – this is about the choices we need to make now, and every day, to secure the future we want for our children.
