For 40 years we have lived with the world’s worst pandemic in recorded history.
This global pandemic has developed in out of the way places called Ethiopia, Yemen, Ruanda, Haiti. Yet this disease called starvation, which has killed millions, has over the years gotten a few minutes here and a few minutes there of coverage on the news.
I decided many month ago to write a book about hope and soils. A book about choices, the choices in a country that in a decade lost 31 million acres of farmland to development, in a country that has gone from being a net exporter to a net importer of food crops.
