In this 5th installment of our deep dive into Paul Hawken's new book and movement - Regeneration: Ending The Climate Crisis in One Generation, we dive into the 4th chapter specifically on Land. The topics covered range from Regenerative Agriculture to Composting and Vermiculture, Degraded Land Restoration and Returning Biodiversity. It's a hopeful chapter on everything we can do to change our current trajectory, reverse global warming, and return health to our soil, to our people, and our planet. We can draw down carbon - put it back where it belongs, and continue forward, creating a better future.
