“If they survive, today's children will inherit a world that our fathers and grandfathers have ravaged, where the seas are acidic cesspools that the whales have fled, where rain forests are Indian memories never to return, and where human greed has plundered Mother Earth's innards and turned human genes into factories for profit. They will inherit a diminished planet where fresh water is increasingly rare, and where fresh air is a commodity... We live in a world that fears and hates its young. How else can one explain the bequest of such a foul, polluted, and hollow inheritance?” IfsWorldHumansChildrenTodayEarthYoungMotherHateFatherWaterMemoriesAirSeaPlanetsReturnFutureRainGreedProfitForestsIndianFactoriesGenesGrandfatherCommodityInheritanceHollowOur FatherFoulWhalesMother EarthFresh AirFresh WaterFathers And Grandfathers Author:Mumia Abu-Jamal
“The reductionist measure of yield is to agriculture systems, what GDP is to economic systems. It is time to move from measuring yield of commodities, to health and well-being of ecosystems and communities. Industrial agriculture has its roots in war. Ecological agriculture allows us to make peace with the earth, soil and the society.” WellsWarEarthMovingCommunityEconomicRootsWell BeingSoilYieldAgricultureCommodityEcologicalEcosystemsMaking PeaceMeasuringEconomic SystemsGdp Author:Vandana Shiva
