Rezensionen

"This must read book emphasises the importance of regenerative farming, agroforestry and permaculture. These methods of farming work with rather than against nature, restore biodiversity, help to and slow down climate change. They can become truly sustainable and feed us for generations to come."

Jane Goodall, PhD, DBE, Founder - the Jane Goodall Institute & UN Messenger of Peace

"This inspiring book cuts through so much of today's wretched jargon about regenerative farming, and tells it as it is: it's impossible to regenerate agriculture today without significantly reducing meat consumption"

Jonathon Porritt, Campaigner and Author.

"If Earth is to have a future, humans will need to live differently within the web of life that feeds us. This future will like a liberation, if only we can unlock it. The keys to tomorrow's plates are in this wide-ranging, challenging, surprising, and ultimately hopeful collection of some of the planet's finest thinkers on the future of food."

Raj Patel, author, film-maker and academic.
