The Fate of Food is a tremendous piece from award-winning environmental journalist Amanda Little and explores novel ideas and advancements we may have to take up given the world population is constantly rising and we are also facing threats to the planet such as global warming which will have a big impact on our food production capabilities. What we need is a sustainable way of producing food and the race to discover it is on. This is intensely thought-provoking and written in a relaxed, conversational style which held my attention well and was both informative and entertaining.

Ms Little details various methods to overcome these issues throughout the book and the ideas and information is solid and interesting. It opened my eyes to problems and possible solutions to the crisis we are now heading towards, and it is clear that Little has extensive knowledge of the subject as well as being incredibly passionate about it. Some of the methods are more than a little contentious, but this is a superb book that grapples with ideas we may need to seriously consider implementing in the future. Topical and highly informative, I learned a lot about agriculture and surrounding issues. Many thanks to Oneworld Publications for an ARC.

What impact is climate change having on our food supply, and what will that impact look like in the near future? This book looks at those very questions and also finds out about the increasing development of ideas and practical ways to address those impacts.
I found this book a difficult read, largely because it contained so much detail and so many facts, ideas, thoughts and nuggets of information, that I found it difficult to absorb it all coherently. This issue would probably have been helped if I was a part of the food growing/production industry, but as a consumer this is the first time I have read anything like this.
It was eye opening, and at times, more than a little worrying. It was obvious from the quality of the writing that the author, Amanda Little, is both knowledgeable and passionate about this topic, and anyone who reads the book will definitely be impacted upon by doing so.
My thanks to #NetGalley and #Oneworldpublications for allowing me to read this book
