THESE BOOKS ARE MEDICINAL
Literally lol-ed, as the kids say

I don't think it's hyperbole to suggest Greta Thunberg is literally, in every meaningful way, tougher & a better leader than any elected official. Every single one. Some much more than others.

Methods, policy, practicalities, those are all beside the point. You need passion, drive & humanity

A big thank you to Nathan Cornish, Ana Margarida Dias da Silva; Maria Teresa Gonçalves, John R. Schaefer, and Gabriel Tober for getting The Connected Past in Coimbra 2025 started with their exploration of plants, gardens, and modern farming through networks!
