The Green Family Cook Book

With equal emphasis on environmental and human health, this cookery book aims to show how simple adjustments can be made to shopping and cooking habits in order to reduce stress on the environment. The topics considered include energy efficiency, water quality, waste, pesticides and animal welfare. Meat and fish recipes by Robert Parfitt, a cookery writer who has experience of rearing animals organically for meat, are included among the 150 seasonal recipes, and the book is intended particularly for women with families to feed. Christine Smith has a degree in biology and psychology and is the author of "Good Children's Food" and "Casserole and Bakes".
