Empty Harvest puts together a sober picture of how interconnected man is to the earth, and how this connection is being destroyed - link by link. While looking at the better-known man-made disasters such as the "greenhouse effect," the indiscriminate use of toxic pesticides, and the wholesale destruction of the world's forests, it clearly focuses on the existing dangers inherent in our agricultural system.Empty Harvest is a groundbreaking book that examines just what the total problem represents. But beyond simply citing impending crises, Empty Harvest offers a wide range of practical solutions that are still available to man - long-term solutions that can mend nature's broken links if applied in time.
