Reviews
"Bren Smith's book on seaweed farming is something I've been looking forward to for years." --Mark Bittman, author of How to Cook Everything "What a remarkable book! Bren Smith has a (wild) life story to recount, a novel food-growing technique to describe, and a planet to help save. He's a deft enough writer to pull it all off, with a wry joy that left me (more than usually) hopeful about our future." --Bill McKibben, New York Times bestselling author of Eaarth: Making a Life on a Tough New Planet and Radio Free Vermont "Seaweed is the food of the future; it's a powerhouse of nutrition and holds a world of untapped flavor and deliciousness. Bren's underwater kelp farms can feed us for years to come and the more we eat, the more we also give back to the ocean. This book leads the way." --René Redzepi, Head Chef & Co-owner Restaurant noma

Synopsis
JAMES BEARD AWARD WINNER IACP Cookbook Award nominee In the face of apocalyptic climate change, a former fisherman shares a bold and hopeful new vision for saving the planet: farming the ocean. Here Bren Smith--pioneer of regenerative ocean agriculture--introduces the world to a groundbreaking solution to the global climate crisis. A genre-defining "climate memoir," Eat Like a Fish interweaves Smith's own life--from sailing the high seas aboard commercial fishing trawlers to developing new forms of ocean farming to surfing the frontiers of the food movement--with actionable food policy and practical advice on ocean farming. Written with the humor and swagger of a fisherman telling a late-night tale, it is a powerful story of environmental renewal, and a must-read guide to saving our oceans, feeding the world, and--by creating new jobs up and down the coasts--putting working class Americans back to work., In the face of apocalyptic climate change, a former fisherman shares a bold and hopeful new vision for saving the planet: farming the ocean. Here Bren Smith--a restorative ocean farmer--introduces the world of sea-based agriculture, a groundbreaking solution to the global climate crisis. The ocean is a vast, untapped opportunity, home to thousands of edible plants. Using simple DIY techniques, we can grow more than enough delicious and nutritious food--without the use of fresh water or fertilizers--to feed the planet and mitigate climate change, to boot.
