Produktbeschreibung
"Out future diet will be shaped by diverse forces. It will be shaped by novel technologies by geopolitical tensions, and the evolution of cultural preferences, by shocks to the status quo-pandemics and economic strife, the escalation of the climate and ecological crises-and by how we choose to respond.
