Indoor air quality is critical to the health and wellbeing of your staff and visitors, in and beyond the lobby. Plants are also a great addition to a space, both aesthetically pleasing and good for the environment and public health. Choose native plants, especially those that attract pollinators and support biodiversity.

Modern, large-scale agriculture destroys soil and wildlife, and uses vast amounts of fossil fuel energy. Industrial monocultures are destroying ecosystems, poisoning watercourses and removing soil, and don’t produce as much per hectare as small farms anyway.

I tend to focus on biodiversity loss – but again it’s always bad news. And they’re the pollinators and soil manufacturers. You can go and find little growing areas, or parks that have been neglected, or bit of disused railway track that has a lot of biodiversity on it. That doesn’t happen any more.

Loss of biodiversity. Soil degradation. Maybe however the best argument is not climate-change, animal suffering, health or low costs. The beauty of this type of agriculture, is that it does not require soil. This book is all about how we can increase our food production for all mankind in a tasty, sustainable manner.

OK, so we’re talking about a definite break with the current system – and as I’ve said before many times on this blog, system change is something that we do ourselves, or nature will do it for us; and if we wait until nature does it, it won’t be pretty. But the current system causes mental health problems already.
