Description: Eating Earth, written both for environmentalists and animal activists, explores vital common ground between these two social justice movements - dietary choice.  This highly readable book, complete with detailed figures, summary slides, and a tough of wry humor, exposes the weighty - oftentimes astonishing and downright infuriating - environmental effects of hunting, fishing, and animal agriculture.  With ecofeminist currents and an eye to human population concerns, Eating Earth is an inclusive, critical examination of ethics, environment, and dietary choice.--INSIDE COVER.
