Regenerate
With so many changes in our forestry..
can "global warming" be the source that fuels the next 'global cooling' ??
Ecologist and engineer John D. Hamaker was convinced of it, having studied the current state of the Biosphere and the 25 Glacial and Interglacial cycles of the last 2.5 million years. It led him and co-author Don Weaver to publish The Survival of Civilization to warn the world in 1982 of this danger and to offer fundamental solutions to the complex problems involved in the regeneration of a late-interglacial demineralized soil and biosphere.
John D. Hamaker saw that this Interglacial Soil Demineralization and Retrogressive Vegetational Succession required humanity to reverse the ongoing soil depletion practices of most agriculture and forestry, and to wisely and generously replenish soils worldwide, restoring them to high mineral and fertility levels such as were known to produce the awesome forests and vegetation of the Climatic Optimum sometime 8000 to 5000 years ago.
