The Bioneers: Revolution From the Heart of Nature: Biodynamic Growing: Sacred Cows and Cosmic Science

Industrial agriculture is the single most destructive human activity against the environment.

Bioneers Series II "Improving Environment By Changing The World
Bioneers Series III 

"The Bioneers: Revolution From the Heart of Nature" introduces us to the past half-century's most visionary designers, practitioners and pioneers of sustainable living. Inspired by the philosophies of the Deep Ecology movement, the Bioneers are heroic examples of people living as if nature mattered. Join us as we look deeply into the magic and mystery of the convergence between leading-edge science and ancient wisdom for a Declaration of Interdependence for the new millennium. Though these programs were produced in the 1990s the contents of this series are timelessly relevant.
