The solutions to some of our most pressing issues -- food insecurity, deforestation, overgrazing, water scarcity, rural poverty, forces migration -- lie in adopting, improving, and scaling up organic and regenerative agriculture best practices.

In The Regenerative Agriculture Solution, authors Ronnie Cummins and André Leu start with the story of how two brothers - José and Gilberto Flores González - are at the leading edge of this approach, pioneering the use of the previously discarded leaves of the prodigious agave plant to regenerate agricultural soils, reduce erosion, and improve water capture. after exploring the brothers' work in San Luis de la Paz, Mexico, Cummins and Leu examine other visionary, cutting-edge work around the world, illuminating projects that will revolutionize how we understand the climate catastrophe and make clear what we need to do to heal our planet. Throughout, readers will not only discover how regenerative our forests, rangelands, and farming ecosystems can cool our planet and restore the climate, but also how it can enrich our communities.
