REGENERATION IS ABOUT RELATIONSHIPS THAT NURTURE ALL LIFE; THE FLORA, FAUNA, SOIL, HISTORY OF THE LAND, AND THE PEOPLES THAT INHABITED IT, PAST, PRESENT, AND FUTURE.
“We are here to accelerate regenerative food systems as a means to restore human and planetary health.” – Dr Zach Bush, Farmer’s Footprint
“The loss of the world’s fertile soil and biodiversity, along with the loss of indigenous seeds and knowledge, pose a mortal threat to our future survival. According to soil scientists, at current rates of soil destruction (i.e. decarbonization, erosion, desertification, chemical pollution), within 50 years we will not only suffer serious damage to public health due to a qualitatively degraded food supply characterized by diminished nutrition and loss of important trace minerals, but we will literally no longer have enough arable topsoil to feed ourselves. Without protecting and regenerating the soil on our 4 billion acres of cultivated farmland, 8 billion acres of pastureland, and 10 billion acres of forest land, it will be impossible to feed the world, keep global warming below 2 degrees Celsius, or halt the loss of biodiversity.” Regeneration International
Regenerative agriculture; a cradle to cradle circular economy for deep ecology.
“More than a mere alternative strategy, regenerative agriculture represents a fundamental shift in our culture’s relationship to nature.” – Charles Eisenstein
