Love this 🍎 🍏

In Norway, when people see that there is an excess of apples on their trees, they do this kind of action so others can pick them and consume them instead of rotting on the ground. Beautiful 👏👏

“Farming is the world's greatest cause of environmental destruction - and the one we are least prepared to talk about. We criticise urban sprawl, but farming sprawls across thirty times as much land. We have ploughed, fenced and grazed great tracts of the planet, felling forests, killing wildlife, and poisoning rivers and oceans to feed ourselves. Yet millions still go hungry.

Now the food system itself is beginning to falter. But, as George Monbiot shows us in this brilliant, bracingly original new book, we can resolve the biggest of our dilemmas and feed the world without devouring the planet. Regenesis is a breathtaking vision of a new future for food and for humanity.”

"C'est dans un désert américain, que je réalisais soudain que la pluie ne tombe pas des cieux : elle provient du sol.
La formation des déserts n'est pas due à l'absence de pluie, mais la pluie cesse de tomber parce que la végétation a disparu.
Construire un barrage en plein désert revient à essayer de ne traiter qu'un symptôme... mais le seul moyen valable pour augmenter les précipitations est d'apprendre à régénérer les anciennes forêts."
