AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES AND USA TODAY BESTSELLER In Cool Food, celebrated actor and philanthropist Robert Downey Jr. and…

New York Times bestselling author Thomas Kostigen team up to discover how we can erase our carbon footprints-one bite at a time. What we eat matters-to us, and to the planet. Cool food is a game-changing new food category and way of thinking that can help fix the climate. This engaging and persuasive book will show you how to make simple choices, starting today-in the supermarket, in your kitchen, and in the world-to reduce your environmental impact. Hundreds of cool foods exist, but until now have gone largely uncelebrated for their climate-positive powers. Some of these foods may already be on your shelf, and some are just on the horizon. But cool food is much more than just a shopping list: it's a way of life vitally important to our future. Packed with eye-opening information, actionable items, and two dozen delicious recipes, Cool Food comes alive with engaging storytelling and refreshing humor. Robert and Tom have talked with experts around the globe-from farmers who are pioneering new pathways to more sustainable food, to cutting-edge, climate-friendly chefs. In seeking answers to what each of us can do, this intrepid duo discovered: the power of ancient grains; revolutionary farming techniques that create more sustainable foods; the unexpected benefits of meal kits; future foods that are made of thin air; delicious and different recipes that do the world good, and much more. What we choose to eat, where we shop, and how we plan our meals are daily choices that can have a wide impact on the world, whether we realize it or not. We have the power with each one of our daily purchases and our individual food habits to encourage a healthier and more sustainable food system for everyone. Join Robert and Tom on this fun, exciting, and enlightening adventure and learn how to become part of the Cool Food revolution

Ristigouche: le long cours de la rivière sauvage

Entre le Québec et le Nouveau-Brunswick s'étend une rivière majestueuse aux eaux d'une rare transparence, aux imposantes berges boisées, où…

foisonne une population de saumon qui en a fait un lieu prisé des animaux et des hommes depuis des temps immémoriaux : la Ristigouche. Naviguant ses flots depuis l'enfance, l'écrivain et journaliste Philip Lee remonte dans son canot pour nous entraîner sur les anciennes routes de portage jusqu'au cours principal, qu'il descend vers l'estuaire de la baie des Chaleurs. Dans une prose aussi souple que les sinuosités de la rivière, il nous en raconte l'histoire, en explore les innombrables strates - géologiques, environnementales, humaines, industrielles - et nous invite à découvrir cet écosystème parmi les plus riches de notre planète pour mieux le protéger. Ristigouche, c'est faire du canot en compagnie du meilleur guide imaginable. En plus d'être un grand conteur, Philip est un fabuleux chercheur. Vous croiserez bien sûr des gens riches et célèbres - les Irving du Nouveau-Brunswick, Teddy Roosevelt, les Vanderbilt, le marquis de Lorne et son épouse, la princesse Louise, fille de la reine Victoria -, mais vous rencontrerez aussi des gens ordinaires qui vivent le long de la rivière et vous vous en éprendrez : bûcherons, pêcheurs, francophones, anglophones, Mi'gmaq. C'est un cours d'eau qui a connu bien des tumultes, depuis l'ignoble expulsion des Acadiens il y a près de trois siècles jusqu'à ce jour de 1981 où des agents de la Sûreté du Québec et des gardes-pêche québécois ont battu et arrêté des membres de la Première Nation de Listuguj pour avoir pêché le saumon au filet. Le saumon, bien sûr, est au cœur de ce superbe livre, tout comme il est l'attraction principale des eaux cristallines de la Ristigouche. Infatigable défenseur de l'espèce, Philip décrit les ravages de la surpêche, de l'exploitation forestière, de la pollution et du changement climatique. Ce livre est son plaidoyer pour la conservation, la protection et la restauration de ce magnifique cours d'eau. Mais c'est aussi, par bonheur, un livre rempli d'amour pour la rivière et d'espoir pour son avenir. Roy MacGregor, auteur et chroniqueur
