Born from a frustration with today’s sound-bite driven “rolling” news, Pocket Issue titles pull together the background to some of the biggest challenges facing our world – delivering the facts in an independent and quick-to-digest format.

Designed for our time-pressed lives, these short and pithy handbooks quickly brief you with enough facts to join the debate.

Is Organic food really better for us? Do we care about Fairtrade or food miles? Should we buy locally or from the supermarket?

Eating has been described as the “most political act we do on a daily basis”, with our choices affecting our health, landscape, climate and economy.

Food what are we really eating? Lifts the lid on food production and the dizzying array of food choices we face each time we shop. Read it and learn how to shop with confidence.
