The organic pizza dilemma: The surprising guide to more sustainability

LOVE OF LIFE INSTEAD OF FRUSTRATION FOR THE FUTURE There can be no "business as usual" in the climate crisis. But all too often it seems that, apart from buying sustainable and fair products, we can do something to protect animals and save the rainforest. But is it really enough to say "organic" on the pizza? Doesn't this just suggest that consumers alone are responsible for the destruction AND the saving of the world at the same time?

The authors reveal that this only leads to excessive demands, frustration and confusion. They show that and how a different, real sustainability is possible. Because this is also an attitude - and an enriching one at that. With informative backgrounds, practical tips and life-saving insights, their book gives courage for a more pleasurable and sustainable life. Because what is good for the world is also good for all of us!
