Wars in the 21st century are wars against the earth; against natural resources like water, soil, forests, minerals and seeds. The global corporate economy based on the idea of limitless growth has become a war economy. Trade wars. Water wars. Food wars.

Making Peace with the Earth outlines how a paradigm shift to earth-centred politics and economics is our only chance of survival; and how collective resistance to corporate exploitation can open the way to a new environmentalism of interdependence and earth democracy

Corporate control violates all ethical and ecological limits. It promotes technologies of production based on genetic engineering, geo-engineering and toxins; industrial development that entails the enforced appropriation of land, rivers, mountains; agribusinesses that deplete nature's diversity and land-grab. Exploitation of this order incurs the kind of ecological and economic debt that is unsustainable, unbailable and unbearable.
