Rachel Carson's book made a big impression on me too, and we're growinging a food forest using permaculture principles.

They say that if dandelions didn't grow everywhere, they'd be considered a superfood. I pick and eat the leaves and have them as part of my breakfast every day.

Interesting post, and video by Monbiot. I think rewilding is generally a good idea as long as (1).Rural economies are not destroyed, with people driven into the cities to eke out a poor living; (2).The rewilded areas are held in common for all, and not owned by billionaires for their private trekking adventures; and (3).The rewilding process is done competently (the example of Yellowstone seems to show it was).
