Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2022
This book should be required reading for every citizen in the world, certainly for every politician, teacher, environmentalist and student. Concisely written and beautifully composed, this book brings science to system after system in nature, society, and more to demonstrate nature's amazing ability to regenerate itself -- when we do the right thing.

There is no bigger threat to our future than climate change, and this book espouses natural solutions that address climate in more ways than just restricting carbon emissions -- even though the author clearly states we have to do that as well.

But while that is going to take time, given the current reluctance to take the extreme measures necessary, drawing carbon down and working with nature's natural systems, can be another way to address the damage we are causing. But more than just sustainability, regeneration shows how everything actually gets immensely better when we work with nature and her natural healing properties.

I read this book cover to cover and was sorry when I got to the end that it didn't go on longer. The research shows in each ecosystem niche 1) how we have harmed that niche 2) what's being done to restore it, and 3) how that's working. It restored faith in me that maybe we aren't doomed for distinction, but have promising things we can actually do to mitigate -- and eventually turn around -- the impending climate crisis.
