The time to act is Now! Please read and sign the Soil4Life manifesto to show your support! https://ccivs.org/soil-manifesto/ Sign the petition here: https://form.jotform.com/212072578209052 Our planet and the beings who reside here and make up the complex, whole, living system on which all life depends are under serious threat. Life functions are being threatened by exploitation, short term thinking, and a worldview that values economic and financial growth over the continuity of life and living systems. The complex, interconnected systems through which life on our planet has been able to flourish and grow over millennia have been misunderstood, misrepresented and ill treated for too long. We, as humans, have attempted to detach ourselves from the web of life. We have created a hierarchical worldview and placed our species at the top, instead of playing an integrated part in its life processes. This attitude and behaviour is destroying our planet´s ecosystems,
Always an inspiration! Wildflowers, hedges that offer habitat for biodiversity and wildlife corridors- listen to the birds in the background! You can just imagine the perfume of the May Flowers on this beautiful English summer day. Here is a quick video of the planting on the 11 acres at Othona, UK. We have tried to keep the bulk of the planting to the edges to keep maximum flexibility of the whole area. It is hoped that this will benefit the whole community and the wildlife of the area. This is on the Essex coast by Bradwell on Sea. The planting is 17 currents, 1 walnut and 1 greengage.
