    DescriptionIn this article, I discuss the concept of healthy food and healthy eating. The question of which food and style of eating is healthy, safe and good for us is as old as time. However, the answer to this question is structured by culture and society, just like or food and foodways, and thus, there are as many answers to this as there are humans on this planet. For us omnivore humans, there never will or can be a single solution.

    DescriptionThis articles opens the dossier on food and climate in the Slow Food Magazin 01/2018. I explain how our food and eating habits are not only affected by climate change - they are, to a considerable extent, also the cause of it. The global production and distribution of food in an industrialised system create large amounts of emissions and damage natural mechanisms that regulate the climate. Meat is a particular problem. Changing our personal eating habits even a little however may help to halt or even reverse the trend.
