Trying to save a saltwater farm is my challenge. A friend said the best way to start a parade is to find a parade, follow it, and turn it around and you will be at the head of the parade. So agriculture and navigation are skills that are slipping and are essential to survival, if not directly, indirectly. Encouraging and nourishing flourishing requires intention, effort, and feedback. Some would say mankind is thriving on the planet. Aren't we prolific? Procreative? I can hardly appreciate 6 billion or 9 billion on the planet when a hundred times that lives and die in my gut by the minute.
