Book overview
The global food trade is driving catastrophic climate change while depleting the world's freshwater and topsoil. Since World War II, a staggering 80% of small farms have vanished, replaced by an extractive corporate monoculture. This book charts an urgent, practical course to reverse this trend. Blending hard environmental data with the vital spiritual ecology needed to inspire a human migration back to the soil, it provides a comprehensive roadmap for a localized agrarian future.
