Featuring renowned environmental journalist Richard Manning
“In Wildness Is the Resurrection of Our World\\"
Tuesday 30 \;March
7\:30 pm\, Education Auditorium\, University of Regina \;
\\"Six thousand years of agriculture have created ecological crisis throughout the world\, but nowhere is the story more dramatic than in the North American grassland. But here also\, nature has given us clear instructions as to how we must redesign agriculture and economy to resurrect the creative power of the plains. These instructions point the way not only to ecological restoration\, but also to revived economy and human well-being.\\"

Manning has written numerous award-winning essays\, magazine articles and books\, and in 1995 he was the recipient of a John S Knight Fellowship from Stanford University. His recent books include Against the Grain\: How Agriculture Has Hijacked Civilization (2004) and Rewilding the West\: Restoration in a Prairie Landscape (2009). Manning teaches at the University of Montana and resides near Missoula.
