#016 Grassroots Revolution: Radical experiments regenerating land & life
Description
Over 250 people filled The Dome at the recent National Sustainable Living Festival for this feature forum hosted by Anthony James, with special guests Frances Jones & David Pollock from Wooleen Station, and regenerative farmer Charles Massy AO.
Frances Jones and David Pollock’s radical project to remove income-earning livestock from their historic property, in remote Western Australia, shocked their entire district, and has gone on to produce remarkable results.
Charles Massy's ground-breaking new book features a range of similar experiments. It is a comprehensive account of how a grassroots revolution is helping to turn climate change around, while building healthy people, communities and landscapes.
Many thanks to our sponsors for this event - Sustain: the Australian Food Network, the William Angliss Institute & the National Sustainable Living Festival.
