Abstract
AbstractThe impacts of climate change continue to magnify, having devastating effects on populations across the world. Despite the mounting evidence that climate change will continue to intensify and it is due to human activities, humanity is slow to act. To encourage wider action among the public, this chapter discusses the use of food to tell the story of climate change, a growing yet underexplored area of research. The chapter first discusses the current state of food and climate change as an engagement tool. Next, the chapter describes how both food storytelling can overcome some of the challenges within the field of climate change communication. Lastly, the chapter provides examples of how food storytelling techniques can enhance engagement with climate change solutions and shift eating patterns.
