CSIRO Perfidy |

The CSIRO Total Wellbeing Diet is famously a “red meat diet”. The world’s cancer experts have no doubt that red meat causes bowel cancer. The world’s climate experts have recommended lower levels of meat consumption to fight global warming. But the CSIRO has chosen to advance the interests of its industry backers over the interests of you, your family and the planet.
"Read this book: it may save your life. And if enough people read it, it just
might save the planet.”
Peter Singer,
Professor of Bioethics, Princeton University
“You may not agree with everything in this book, but it's an important book. Everyone who cares about their own health and the sustainability of the earth should read it.”
Dr Rosemary Stanton, OAM
Nutritionist
“This book is a valuable contribution in the battle to keep our climate habitable.
It explains, for a general audience, the climate science behind the call
by the head of the IPCC for reduced global meat consumption.”
Barry Brook,
Professor of Climate Change, Adelaide University
