We evolved to be problem-solvers, to create, to be choosers of our own future!

Nature has an incredible capacity for regeneration and growth, but we can't experience it if we stay fearful and focused on lack.

We hear, "Oh, we need to patent GMOs and develop new strains and new chemicals because Nature can't provide what we need." I have to debate people all the time who say that Nature can't provide enough.

[Fear] means that we are human beings walking into the unknown, and that we are risking breaking with others for something we believe in.

much agricultural land which might be growing food is being used instead to 'grow' money (in the form of coffee, tea, etc.).

What is different and exciting is how much we have learned. We learned we were right that we don't need the chemical model of agriculture. We know so much more about the life of soil now and we understand how plants synergistically work together with microbes and animals to create healthy conditions.

I was a compulsive eater in my late teens and until I wrote Diet for a Small Planet, so I know what it feels like when food becomes a threat.
