Radical:
of, relating to, or constituting a linguistic root
of or relating to the origin: FUNDAMENTAL
We are bringing the ‘Rewilding’ movement back to it’s origins
Regenerative:
relating to the improvement of a place or system, especially by making it more active or successful, or to making a person feel happier and more positive:
The time for sustaining what we have has now passed - we need new systems, lifestyles, that don’t just sustain us, or the planet in it’s current state - but regenerate what we have lost..
RE-Wild:
Means to RE-turn to a more natural
or WILD state.
This can mean re-wilding a landscape
(returning a landscape to a more natural / wild state)
And often people think this means the land should be left alone
without people
a landscape museum
only to visit, but NEVER to inhabit!
and whilst nature is awesome and glorious
we don’t think people should stay away
Humans have benefitted the landscape they dwell on for millions of years…
Our mission is to:
Rewild the People too!
Humans are not separate from nature
We are a KEYSTONE SPECIES
Nature is more biodiverse, healthier, and has more chance of thriving
when
people INTEGRATE
Our mission is to help people return to a more:
natural
balanced
integrated
connected
AKA
more WILD state!
just as our ancestors were
Until the last 20,000 years or so of agriculture - things were going quite steadily!
NO! This doesn’t mean we want to go backwards
It means to take all the lessons we can from history
together with new knowledge
and
new technologies
new ways of building soil
new ways of integrating
people and landscapes
and creating a future
where we can
RE-Learn
Our lost skills and traditions
RE-Connect
With nature & land
RE-Generate
The soils & ecosystems
Only then we will truly Re-wild our planet
when we
Re-Wild
OURSELVES
