Hi
Human Greed: too big of a bite to tackle all at once. I suggest we just start where we are and where we can. SUPPORT the already existing organizations doing work everywhere (US, Brazil,etc..) and like the seasons, wait for the snow ball effect .

Morning,

An equally significant question: can people acquire sufficiently
secure access to the necessary land to grow food in the first place?
Many people are only one or two generations away from forebears who
were more than capable of growing their own food, and in reasonably
sustainable ways, but have had their ancestral land access stolen.

What is the permaculture solution to human greed for more land
than the fair shares?

Thanks,

Amanda in the UK
