Vandana Shiva, TERRA VIVA, and the Reality of Ecology

For over four decades Vandana Shiva has vociferously advocated for diversity, indigenous knowledge, localization, and Earth democracy; she has been at the forefront of global movement-building, seed saving, food sovereignty, and connecting the dots between the destruction of nature, the polarization of societies, and indiscriminate corporate greed.

Now, with her new book Terra Viva: My Life in a Biodiversity of Movements, she reflects back on her remarkable life, but also offers a clear-eyed assessment of the challenges we all face moving forward.
