biodiversity

While more than two thousand pear varieties were grown at the beginning of the twentieth century, today only two varieties account for 96% of the pears on grocery stores. Just like the potato, which has more than a thousand varieties, has been replaced by four. All other cows sacrificed to raise the Dutch Friesian cow, perceived as a dairy machine, share the same fate as pears and potatoes. If the way of thinking called "productivity" continues to be the only concept focused on in food production, tomatoes, corn, strawberries and many more will be doomed to share the same fate, in fact it has already happened. Mancuso, a botanist scientist who made a name for himself with his extraordinary studies on plants, and Petrini, a journalist-writer and activist, the father of "Slow Food" and "Terra Madre" formations, two Italians, bring biodiversity to the agenda from two different perspectives and with extraordinary intuition. We are becoming poorer. Activating the minds of people who are concerned about the fate of the world, Mancuso and Petrini strive to reverse the poverty we face not in the future but in our daily lives. They invite the reader to look to nature as a source of inspiration. If we can manage to look at the capacity of plants with an open mind and a loving heart, a new way of life can be revealed to humanity. Biodiversity, from plants to animals, is a wealth that the planet must regain... As long as humanity is convinced that this is real wealth.
