Joe Brewer's Bold Quest to Restore a Bioregion

Frontiers of Commoning, with David Bollier

Joe Brewer, an American activist with extensive background in earth sciences, embarked on a journey to heal the Earth, and ended up in Barichara, Colombia, helping to catalyze a bold effort to restore an arid tropical forest in the northern Andes. Here, Brewer describes his formal training in ecological sciences and complex systems; the techniques and tactics he has used in Barichara, and his expanding ambitions to help bioregions internationally to organize their own similar efforts. He also talks about his recent book, 'The Design Pathway for Regenerating Earth,' and the group he founded, Earth Regenerators.
