b'It is time to sing the virtues of small farms and local food systems, anew, reinvigorated by all that we now know about soil fertility, carbon sequestration and health.

It is time to turn down the heat and turn down the volume and let go of our ideologies, so that we can discern the outlines of structural change and set off in its direction. It is time for we beneficiaries of and participants in the Greatest Transfer of Wealth in History to rise to the occasion, once and for all, no matter how, privately, we still cling to the gestalt of financial scar-city, no matter how we may despair over our shortcomings to date.It is 50 years since the first Earth Day and 50 weeks since Greta Thun-berg admonished the U.N.

The way each heart, each mind struggles against denial and despair, in order to engage. 38'
