Regenerative Agriculture and Permaculture Offer Narrow Solutions to the Climate Crisis Regenerative agriculture (Regen Ag) and permaculture claim to be the solutions to our ecological crises.

While the practices 'sustainable farming' promote are important, they do not encompass the deep cultural and relational changes needed to realize our collective healing.
