A very passionate take from my hero, Monbiot on what needs to be done to tackle environmental and ecological breakdown.

This is a crucial discussion on the importance of natural places and rewilding, written 10 years ago. It is UK based but still has relevance for all areas, particularly when considering reintroducing key species. It is a great starting point to get you thinking about this subject.

Absolutely brilliant book. Well researched and well written. Admittedly it did take me a while to read as I started it and then put it down for a while. That is not the books fault. I just wasn‘t ready for it at the time. F

Years ago I went on a walk with #Cumbria wildlife trust, looking at a traditional meadow. Belted Galloway cows were brought in to disturb the soil which allows seeds that are buried in the soil to come to the surface and germinate, something just described in 'Feral' p. 74
