The author makes a potent case that we need to defend planet earth from being destroyed
I love that the author, Dr. Vandana Shiva, does not mince words. She is a strong advocated for local food security and food sovereignty, NOT agriculture by machines and planned by people in offices.Dr. Shiva explains why Bill Gates philanthropy-captitalism is actually "philanthropy-imperialism". He is using his money to bypass democratic structures of society. His foundation is involved in ignoring or derailing alternatives to his vision, a totalitarian world view that is shaping so many fields ... health, education, agriculture, economy and finance. Gates ignores contributions of women, indigenous and peasant farmers who have knowledge of the land.She inspires us to stop the greed machine and defend our humanity and freedom to protect life on earth.

An excellent call to become self-organized, self-reliant, and create local economies
In this must read book for anyone that cares about themselves and the Earth, Vandana and Kartikey Shiva explain clearly with data and references, how the richest people in the world negatively affect the nature, biodiversity, agriculture, and ultimately our health and wellbeing in order to keep increasing their profits.The authors did an excelleng job explaining how the solutions like GMO, industrial chemical agriculture, geo-engineering, AI and computer models based technocracy, etc., proposed by the super-rich to solve the world's problems are horribly affecting the earth and making all of us weak and sick.For example, the authors argue that the vector mediated horizontal gene transfer (genetic engineering) causes new pandemic strains of bacterial pathogens, and call all the people of this world to throw away the pseudo-science of the super rich.
