Andy is a father and lifelong gardener living in Los Angeles. Working as a professional aquaculturist and a student of the environmental sciences, he thinks about the world in a deeply insightful manner. Drawing upon theories of Social Ecology, Andy inspired me with his Youtube Channel - The Solarpunk Farmer where he shares his knowledge and expertise with a global community. He's thought long and hard about many topics such as Radical Agriculture - an approach to Regernative Agriculture that he feels empowers individuals to do what is right in a society that can often get things wrong. Amongst many things, he is driven by a desire to create a SolarPunk future where humans partner with nature, just as he has done in his own Resilience Garden. Andy reminds us of the famous Mollison quote - "Though the problems of the world are increasingly complex, the solutions remain embarrassingly simple." Along with his Youtube content, Andy keeps us optimistic about his journey via the gram @solarpunkfarmer --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/solarpunkpermaculture/message
