Lexicon Of Sustainability Explores Importance of Biodiversity

Video explores the importance of biodiversity in agriculture

“While agriculture companies control the patents and production of seeds used by many commercial farmers, backyard gardeners and local seed banks strive to preserve both the culture and biodiversity of seeds through their own methods.

The latest video from The Lexicon of Sustainability‘s Douglas Gayeton explores the seed banks, seed swaps and the work of environmental activist, author and physicist Dr. Vandana Shiva, who explains the “seed sovereignty” movement.”
