Recipes for a Warmer World: Cooking up Plants of the Futurescape as Colors, Scents, and Foods invites multi-sensory appreciation for plants that will likely thrive in a future landscape, using the Climate Change Tree Atlas, among other research. It includes tested recipes for extracting color from seven plant species, along with secondary recipes for either scent or taste. Each plant is accompanied by photos and a description such as the common and scientific names, family, habitat, and ecological significance.
As a cross-disciplinary project, Recipes for a Warmer World offers four essays to frame the DIY making and instructional initiative of the book. These are—an essay on ethnobotany, one on the chemistry of color, another on the colonization of pokeweed, and a speculative hike along the Appalachian Trail. Essays are written by Pratt faculty—artist/designer Jean Brennan, chemist Cindie Kehlet, environmental scientist, Audrey L.M. Lindsey—and herbalist, Sarah Elisabeth (Director of A Farm for All!). The book was designed by Pratt GradComD alum, Janneane Blevins, and Jean Brennan, and printed by Lucky Risograph and Conveyor Studio.
