How the Soil Healed Wounded Soldiers | George Monbiot

Learn how this mysterious "Angel's Glow" helped to heal the wounded soldiers, as described by George Monbiot in his new book Regenesis.

About the book: For the first time since the Neolithic, we have the opportunity to transform not only our food system but our entire relationship to the living world. In this brilliant, bracingly original new book, Regenesis, we find a breathtaking vision of a new future for food and for humanity. Drawing on astonishing advances in soil ecology, George Monbiot reveals how our changing understanding of the world beneath our feet could allow us to grow more food with less farming. He meets the people who are unlocking these methods, from the fruit and vegetable grower revolutionizing our understanding of fertility; through breeders of perennial grains, liberating the land from ploughs and poisons; to the scientists pioneering new ways to grow protein and fat. Together, they show how the tiniest life forms could help us make peace with the planet, restore its living systems, and replace the age of extinction with an age of regenesis.
