Description

Defending Beef: The Ecological and Nutritional Case for Meat, 2nd Edition by Nicolette Hahn Niman. A passionate argument for responsible meat production and consumption, Defending Beef challenges common assumptions about the environmental impact of livestock farming. Environmental lawyer turned rancher Nicolette Hahn Niman presents a nuanced view of the role of cattle in maintaining grassland ecosystems, arguing that proper management can mitigate negative effects and even provide benefits. In this updated and expanded edition, Niman delivers a compelling case for a more sustainable approach to meat production, one that balances the needs of human health, the environment, and the economy. As the meat industry responds to growing concerns about climate change, plant-based alternatives, and animal welfare, Defending Beef has never been more timely.
