This timely and important collection of essays addresses connections between food and agriculture, the environment, and climate change. The essays interrogate the policies and practices that support and sustain the dominant model of food production, offer theoretical analyses of injustices in the global food system, and critique prevailing models of responsibility for change. Food, Environment, and Climate Change is essential reading for anyone interested in food and agriculture.

This volume provides a critical analysis of food and agriculture’s impact on the environment and climate change from a justice framework. Each chapter forces us to reconcile how our personal, societal, or legal decisions from farm to table (or landfill) impacts current disparities globally and alter future generations’ ability to feed themselves.
