[PeDAGoG] Reading list around regenerative futures for Young Adults?

[Christine Dann]

Dave Goulson (2019)/The Garden Jungle or Gardening to Save the Planet/

Goulson is Professor of Biological Sciences at the University of Sussex 
- and a really good writer who mixes up his practical gardening 
experiences with the science stories he tells. I was initially worried 
that it might be 'too English' to apply to New Zealand conditions, but 
all gardens everywhere have soil microorganisms, insects, birds, etc. as 
well as plants, and while each place has specific interactions going on, 
the principles behind them are all the same, and these are relevant 
everywhere.  I wish this book had been around when I started gardening 
in my teens.
