There’s a great secret, at least for most of humanity, and as close as us, so we do not see it: namely, ecological and cultural restoration and justice are as one. What's more, until we *personally* assume the localizing terms of such reconciliation, any 'fix' simply won't work.

Because the root cause of hunger is inequality, any method of boosting food production that deepens inequality will fail to reduce hunger. Conversely, only technologies that have positive effects on the distribution of wealth, income, and assets, that are pro-poor, can truly reduce hunger. -Miguel Altieri
