00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.000
[music]

00:00:10.000 --> 00:00:18.000
[sil.]

00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:25.000
[music]

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:34.999
Thing about morning is there’s not so many
people up. There’s lots of space in it.

00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:39.999
And the way the light comes pouring into barn
doors is like God calling, you’re awake yet

00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:44.999
or if you don’t believe in that kind of
thing you could say, “It’s relay race,”

00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:49.999
and the moon gave the sun the baton again.
In the morning, dirt smells best,

00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:54.999
here, smell this. It’s a merge of life and death
and mystery. It’s the bones of all the mixed in,

00:00:55.000 --> 00:00:59.999
we will become carbon again certainly.
Oh, we don’t talk about this actually,

00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:04.999
it’s too close to home. Funny what kind
of information people skip over. Like,

00:01:05.000 --> 00:01:09.999
how we have this, your Island was such beautiful
soil and the irony is, even though there’s so much

00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:14.999
iron in it, it seems to not be enough. So people
sticking it was too much, it’s rough what we’re doing.

00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:19.999
The earth up to a certain point will be forgiving but
she’s not going to feed us if we keep stripping her,

00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:24.999
we forget we’re the fetus
and she is in nurture.

00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:29.999
She doesn’t need us as much as we’ll be needing
her when the fields are ravaged and the nutrients

00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:34.999
we want scavenged are limited, scattered. We forget
that good food, healthy plenty is what we’re after.

00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:39.999
And there’s lots of ways to get that.

00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:45.000
[music]

00:01:50.000 --> 00:01:54.999
[music]

00:01:55.000 --> 00:01:59.999
The PEI’s little more than a million
acres and about half its agriculture.

00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:04.999
So is really 500,000 acre farm and we’re surrounded bwate!
Tableo, we this… this differentiation just by where we are.

00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:09.999
Farming has been really closely
associated with being an islander,

00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:14.999
I think. For a long time, it was
rural people over on the farm

00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:19.999
they moved went to the city but the
home was still back on the farm.

00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:24.999
[music]

00:02:25.000 --> 00:02:29.999
Right now, agriculture in
PEI’s definitely increases.

00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:34.999
Prince Edward Island it’s not a place
to get your product moved off,

00:02:35.000 --> 00:02:39.999
it’s more expensive than other places.

00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:44.999
So even if commodity anti farming worked for
somebody in the Midwest, it’s even harder here.

00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:49.999
’Cause a lot of farmers that have been
involved in commodity farming for a long time

00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:54.999
and my prices are been suddenly going down.

00:02:55.000 --> 00:02:59.999
[music]

00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:04.999
Five, ten years from now people may say, “Well,
geez, I wish I’d known that that was happening,”

00:03:05.000 --> 00:03:09.999
I wish I’d known that, you know, so
many farm families were abandoning

00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:14.999
the farm or no one was there to take it
over because the debt loads were so high.

00:03:15.000 --> 00:03:19.999
We have the food palaces, there’s no food prices as far
as people would go into these food palaces are concerned.

00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:24.999
Nothing that you can see, nothing that you can
feel, nothing that you can taste that says,

00:03:25.000 --> 00:03:29.999
”There’s trouble,” why are you
going to worry about that?

00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:34.999
[music]

00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:39.999
I’m the fifth generation farming,
this particular part of the farm.

00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:48.000
The other side of farm I’d
be six generation on that.

00:03:50.000 --> 00:03:54.999
The farming here I think was
basically organic farming,

00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:59.999
if you were(ph) for the first 100
years or so and around 1945,

00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:04.999
around the end of the World War II that’s when
really it started becoming one industrial.

00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:09.999
So, yeah, bigger and bigger, bigger
machinery and bigger, bigger farms.

00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:14.999
We’ve been told for last, at least one generation
probably two that we have to be more efficient,

00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:19.999
more efficient, more efficient, more efficient, and the only way
you’ll be more efficient is get bigger and produce more of something,

00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:24.999
and do it cheaper.

00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:29.999
[sil.]

00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:34.999
What we used to have was a
whole lot of farms in between,

00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:39.999
little dairy farms, little bee farms little, little
mix farms scattered all over the place between.

00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:44.999
Now if your free time, basically none.
They’re all in rotation to potatoes.

00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:49.999
To huge environment impact, to
having these big fields of potatoes

00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:54.999
with all the insecticide in ‘em and as we go on, year
after year, after year, and rotating them around,

00:04:55.000 --> 00:04:59.999
we… we with the impact insects
and, and the biodiversity.

00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:04.999
So, we have two very distinct
direction, we can go.

00:05:05.000 --> 00:05:09.999
Do we wanna get more out of what we’re doing or do we wanna produce more of
something and selling at cheaper. We can neither have PEI in a hundred years

00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:14.999
with three or four farms maybe. Or
do we wanna really do something now

00:05:15.000 --> 00:05:19.999
and preserve the ability to be a family
farm. I think going organic can do that.

00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:24.999
[music]

00:05:25.000 --> 00:05:29.999
I’ve been protesting against
what was wrong in the world,

00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:34.999
for a long time and I felt like I wanted
to do something positive instead.

00:05:35.000 --> 00:05:39.999
I wanted to be part of positive change.

00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:44.999
Sometimes what people say when they
want to discredit organic to say

00:05:45.000 --> 00:05:49.999
that they don’t want to go back to farming like
their grandparents did, that just not the case.

00:05:50.000 --> 00:05:54.999
Organic farming has evolved in the
same way that chemical farming has.

00:05:55.000 --> 00:05:59.999
We have many things that are
disposable now, lots of tools

00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:04.999
and understanding of how pests work
and how beneficial insects work

00:06:05.000 --> 00:06:09.999
that our grandparents didn’t have.

00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:14.999
And, it’s true that when our grandparents or great-grandparents
start using chemicals, their production increased greatly

00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:19.999
but that’s because they had super healthy
soil and they didn’t have a lot of pests.

00:06:20.000 --> 00:06:24.999
Their production started to
decrease after a few years,

00:06:25.000 --> 00:06:29.999
because the health of the soil
and the plants was compromised.

00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:34.999
And so, then they started having to use
pesticides to control all those imbalances.

00:06:35.000 --> 00:06:43.000
[sil.]

00:06:50.000 --> 00:06:54.999
I grew up on the farm.
Farm, it kind of evolved,

00:06:55.000 --> 00:06:59.999
it was uh… like the, the next farm
back when my grandfather run it

00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:04.999
and then dad had the dairy and the conventional
potatoes and I was involved in the potato operation

00:07:05.000 --> 00:07:09.999
and uh… spraying and all that stuff.

00:07:10.000 --> 00:07:14.999
One day, I just decided that
it has to be a better way.

00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:19.999
I’m a fourth generation farmer

00:07:20.000 --> 00:07:24.999
and uh… it means quite a bit to
me to, to be able from there

00:07:25.000 --> 00:07:29.999
and speaking with Dad and numerous conversations since
we’ve become organic. Yeah, some of the practice

00:07:30.000 --> 00:07:34.999
and stuff that I’ve learned in college
and I’ve had a farm organically,

00:07:35.000 --> 00:07:39.999
has been the exact same practice
that he’s done as a child.

00:07:40.000 --> 00:07:48.000
[music]

00:07:50.000 --> 00:07:54.999
Look what we’ve got. The country roads
that shine in the eyes of tourists,

00:07:55.000 --> 00:07:59.999
the meals we make to pass around tables not only to feed
but to nourish. Our ground have flourishes in all seasons

00:08:00.000 --> 00:08:04.999
whether resting or yielding, flowers
from seed giving pollen to bees

00:08:05.000 --> 00:08:09.999
that would be grateful to
keep toxins from their honey,

00:08:10.000 --> 00:08:14.999
and children can go running with clean air in their
lungs, less dusting to settle on all of our lawns

00:08:15.000 --> 00:08:19.999
and the mood on the farm could be communal and
calm. “Competent women and men keeping on,

00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:24.999
beating the woods by the highway,
your next door neighbor in this city,

00:08:25.000 --> 00:08:29.999
where plants are still food and animal
husbandry means caretaking, means kindness,

00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:34.999
means some kind of loving, because what we take inside
is should not get there poisoned and struggling.”

00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:39.999
[music]

00:08:40.000 --> 00:08:44.999
Organic to a lot of people

00:08:45.000 --> 00:08:49.999
is the growing of crops with (inaudible). I’m not
spraying, I’m not doing this I’m not doing that

00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:54.999
but organic to me is organic
with, looking after the soil,

00:08:55.000 --> 00:08:59.999
so the soil looks after your crops and then you can
feed your livestock and making that whole circle.

00:09:00.000 --> 00:09:04.999
So when you have a conventional family, switching to organic
but still is of the mindset that have to control nature

00:09:05.000 --> 00:09:09.999
then have a great deal, difficulty.
And have to understand

00:09:10.000 --> 00:09:14.999
how to work with nature
instead of trying to

00:09:15.000 --> 00:09:19.999
control nature, that’s the fundamental
difference in organic and conventional farming.

00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:24.999
What they don’t take into account is,
it’s a life cycles inside the soil

00:09:25.000 --> 00:09:29.999
and all of the, bacteria and
fungi and worms and nematodes,

00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:34.999
everything else that living inside the soil,
they’re providing nutrients for the plants.

00:09:35.000 --> 00:09:39.999
The insect populations
or the weed populations

00:09:40.000 --> 00:09:44.999
all tell you a story of what
that soil is going through

00:09:45.000 --> 00:09:49.999
and you can adjust it to use it
in a proper way to grow a crop.

00:09:50.000 --> 00:09:54.999
Organic land will come through a drought,
a lot better than uh… a conventional l

00:09:55.000 --> 00:09:59.999
and because there’s so much more of a
water holding capacity in the soil,

00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:04.999
and once you get that soil health at a, at a viable stage
and the organisms and within the soil kind of come back,

00:10:05.000 --> 00:10:09.999
some of those diseases to look after.

00:10:10.000 --> 00:10:14.999
We’re bringing a (inaudible) really nice yields on the
farm and comparable to conventional agriculture which,

00:10:15.000 --> 00:10:19.999
which is good.

00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:24.999
It would benefit a lot of the conventional farmers as well
to be able to change some of their cultural practices

00:10:25.000 --> 00:10:29.999
to reduce that spray bill, but it
just so much easier to go to a store

00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:34.999
and pick up a jug and put it in the
sprayer, spray it and it’s done.

00:10:35.000 --> 00:10:39.999
Somewhat done then, then worry
about it next year again.

00:10:40.000 --> 00:10:44.999
[music]

00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:49.999
Behind the scenes of picturesque

00:10:50.000 --> 00:10:54.999
are the country’s highest rates of
cancer and respiratory illness.

00:10:55.000 --> 00:10:59.999
”Pesticides flow from fields to kill of the fishes and the nitrates in the
groundwater are higher than we should it live with. An expiry date on potatoes

00:11:00.000 --> 00:11:04.999
don’t cost as much as the debts farmers are building,
as they’re again without plans to pass the land

00:11:05.000 --> 00:11:09.999
to future generations, farms forced
to expand over their neighbors

00:11:10.000 --> 00:11:14.999
and community ties are compromised
in our stewardship is weaning.”

00:11:15.000 --> 00:11:19.999
I’ve spent many hours

00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:24.999
in kitchens with farmers with the camera turned
off, having, you know, with a beer or two,

00:11:25.000 --> 00:11:29.999
you know, having talks about this and believe
me, you know, “I’ve had your real hard assed

00:11:30.000 --> 00:11:34.999
conventional farmers say we can’t do this forever, there’s
gonna to come a point where we’ll have to stop doing this,

00:11:35.000 --> 00:11:39.999
we’ll have to find some other way but my God, you
know, I’ve got three quarters of a million dollars

00:11:40.000 --> 00:11:44.999
invested in my crop and cavendish are expecting the
potatoes and I won’t get paid unless they’re such quality

00:11:45.000 --> 00:11:49.999
and so on what am I supposed to do? So,
it’s not that they’re unaware of the risks

00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:54.999
and, and I know some farmers who will
say, “They hate bringing their sprayer,”

00:11:55.000 --> 00:11:59.999
they hate every moment of it.

00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:04.999
For most of them, it’s not the
most enjoyable thing that they do.

00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:09.999
[sil.]

00:12:10.000 --> 00:12:14.999
To people who is seriously

00:12:15.000 --> 00:12:19.999
look at whether they can feed the world or not organically would have to
say, “Well, why have we not been doing a whole lot of research into looking,

00:12:20.000 --> 00:12:24.999
we’ve done a huge amount of research into farming
with all the chemicals and, you know, fertilizers.

00:12:25.000 --> 00:12:29.999
There’s been very little government sponsored
research or an industry sponsored research

00:12:30.000 --> 00:12:34.999
and to do farming without, and the reason for it is that companies
don’t see how to have something they want to be in a cell,

00:12:35.000 --> 00:12:43.000
yeah, and if the farmer can produce it on the
farm but himself, how’s a company make any money.

00:12:45.000 --> 00:12:49.999
It’s kind of unique situation
on PEI because, Cavendish farms

00:12:50.000 --> 00:12:54.999
and McCain’s and McCain do the same thing, of course, not
only do they buy the potatoes, they supplied fertilizer

00:12:55.000 --> 00:12:59.999
and the chemicals and the
fuel to the farmers.

00:13:00.000 --> 00:13:04.999
I don’t think you’re going, either of them guys switching to wanting to
do organic products unless they think so that they can sell, you know,

00:13:05.000 --> 00:13:09.999
organic inputs for just as much money as they can
sell their, because they make that, you know,

00:13:10.000 --> 00:13:14.999
when they don’t make money under potatoes still making money
on the fertilizer, still making money on the chemicals.

00:13:15.000 --> 00:13:19.999
[music]

00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:24.999
If we had a big corporate structure

00:13:25.000 --> 00:13:29.999
that farmed all PEI and and that
corporate structure collapse

00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:34.999
for some reason which is not unlikely,

00:13:35.000 --> 00:13:39.999
because corporate
structures tend to do that.

00:13:40.000 --> 00:13:44.999
Food security with the compromise and
is compromised by corporate production.

00:13:45.000 --> 00:13:49.999
Food security is no small thing.
It’s the core of our survival.

00:13:50.000 --> 00:13:58.000
[music]

00:14:00.000 --> 00:14:04.999
People don’t necessarily look at the whole
picture when they calculate things.

00:14:05.000 --> 00:14:09.999
What are all the things that it
cost to produce that food not just

00:14:10.000 --> 00:14:14.999
the farmer paying for the
pesticides and the fertilizer.

00:14:15.000 --> 00:14:19.999
What happened after that pesticide
got in the water? Who got sick.

00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:24.999
What animals died? How does
that affect everybody?

00:14:25.000 --> 00:14:29.999
How is that factored in.

00:14:30.000 --> 00:14:34.999
[music]

00:14:35.000 --> 00:14:39.999
We have this are incredible food
system towards all this stuff in

00:14:40.000 --> 00:14:44.999
the supermarkets that prices
that no one’s ever heard of.

00:14:45.000 --> 00:14:49.999
But at what cost, you know, both to the
environment and to uh… the farmers themselves.

00:14:50.000 --> 00:14:54.999
And there really are two groups of people. I mean,
there are people uh… that are that know about farming

00:14:55.000 --> 00:14:59.999
and how much trouble farmers are in and
there’s a lot of limiting about how

00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:04.999
difficult things are. And then, you know, there’s
others that really don’t think about it very much.

00:15:05.000 --> 00:15:09.999
People are busy uh… life is tough

00:15:10.000 --> 00:15:14.999
uh… furnace oil cost a lot of money,
you know, it takes some commitment to

00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:19.999
think hard about where food
is coming from, you know,

00:15:20.000 --> 00:15:24.999
most people thankfully in this modern world that we live in
really don’t have to think about it too hard and they don’t.

00:15:25.000 --> 00:15:29.999
[sil.]

00:15:30.000 --> 00:15:34.999
Want to know our gas prices

00:15:35.000 --> 00:15:39.999
and much more just to the farmer. If the cost of
their production is reflected in what you make that

00:15:40.000 --> 00:15:44.999
you can afford to treat
the environment better.

00:15:45.000 --> 00:15:49.999
[sil.]

00:15:50.000 --> 00:15:54.999
[music]

00:15:55.000 --> 00:15:59.999
\"Though the harvest is
death giving us life,

00:16:00.000 --> 00:16:04.999
sunsets for moon rise and long nights,
it is also splendid communion

00:16:05.000 --> 00:16:09.999
and the sacrifice comes from all sides.
The farmers toil,

00:16:10.000 --> 00:16:14.999
the seeds grow, food when we feed the soil.
Let us stay as true

00:16:15.000 --> 00:16:19.999
as nature is wise on this planet for its
people let us plant something beautiful

00:16:20.000 --> 00:16:24.999
and reap something equally kind.\"

00:16:25.000 --> 00:16:29.999
[music]

00:16:30.000 --> 00:16:34.999
We’ve got between six

00:16:35.000 --> 00:16:39.999
and seven thousand acres that are certified organic. On Prince Edward
Island are in transition to be organic and we’re increasing by

00:16:40.000 --> 00:16:44.999
15 or 20% per year. So we’re getting to the
point now where we can actually supply

00:16:45.000 --> 00:16:49.999
steady supply of products, nationally,
internationally or locally.

00:16:50.000 --> 00:16:54.999
I don’t necessarily, mean, I’m waiting for

00:16:55.000 --> 00:16:59.999
Cavendish farms or for superstore or Sobeys to be to
market. I think the only way we can actually do this

00:17:00.000 --> 00:17:04.999
that we actually find their own markets
and that’s led to me travelling around

00:17:05.000 --> 00:17:09.999
the world looking to markets.
The market has to be there

00:17:10.000 --> 00:17:14.999
and I think if the market is there farmers are
entrepreneurial enough that they’ll go organic,

00:17:15.000 --> 00:17:19.999
you know, why, why wouldn’t they?
It’s not all that different.

00:17:20.000 --> 00:17:24.999
As a consumer, you know, I should have
some kind of relationship with the person

00:17:25.000 --> 00:17:29.999
that’s putting food on more than table, cheap
food is kind of degraded that relationship that

00:17:30.000 --> 00:17:34.999
it’s… it’s sort of stated
it’s not important.

00:17:35.000 --> 00:17:39.999
[music]

00:17:40.000 --> 00:17:44.999
PEI is very definable where problems of
Canada’s have our own provincial government

00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:49.999
which gives us a huge advantage so we can actually
make rules and then force the rules here,

00:17:50.000 --> 00:17:54.999
uh… we’re… we’re surrounded by water
so we have this natural boundary

00:17:55.000 --> 00:17:59.999
that nobody can dispute. We’d a huge opportunity
to be only organic on to North America for sure.

00:18:00.000 --> 00:18:04.999
Umm… Especially being big enough. I mean,
to actually have substantial agriculture.

00:18:05.000 --> 00:18:09.999
[sil.]

00:18:10.000 --> 00:18:14.999
It’s totally possible and
there’s certainly be benefits

00:18:15.000 --> 00:18:19.999
to the health of Islanders.
There would be tourism,

00:18:20.000 --> 00:18:24.999
there would be more jobs in rural PEI.

00:18:25.000 --> 00:18:29.999
We would be at the forefront of
addressing environmental issues

00:18:30.000 --> 00:18:34.999
that we all need to address.

00:18:35.000 --> 00:18:39.999
But there has to be a political
component to providing a climate

00:18:40.000 --> 00:18:44.999
that conventional farmers
can transition to organics.

00:18:45.000 --> 00:18:49.999
It’s a complicated, expensive process. All
that land as a chemical supplied to it for

00:18:50.000 --> 00:18:54.999
the last 50 years. It’s going to take a
while to become healthy organic soil.

00:18:55.000 --> 00:18:59.999
[sil.]

00:19:00.000 --> 00:19:04.999
Because there’s been such a
concentration of potatoes and because,

00:19:05.000 --> 00:19:09.999
agriculture is so overlapped with
residential, there’s a real awareness

00:19:10.000 --> 00:19:14.999
of how much spraying happens. And so
there’s a real high level of concern

00:19:15.000 --> 00:19:19.999
and support for organic agriculture.

00:19:20.000 --> 00:19:24.999
I think more than a lot of places. Make it look like the moon, very
quickly. Yeah. And when they’re done, there’s… there’s no (inaudible)

00:19:25.000 --> 00:19:29.999
there’s no and nothing. Everything is gone. I mean,
when we walk, I’ll show you there with a pig-pen

00:19:30.000 --> 00:19:34.999
(inaudible). In the late ‘90s when we were doing the
potato breeding and I was going to put into meetings.

00:19:35.000 --> 00:19:39.999
If you went for a coffee at a… a (inaudible) stop. People
would literally turn your back on you and just walk away.

00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:44.999
They didn’t believe that it’s really
any merit or any future organic.

00:19:45.000 --> 00:19:49.999
It was a fad, it was just going to roots and berries people,
are tree huggers and so on. Now when you’re going to top,

00:19:50.000 --> 00:19:54.999
there’s less of the people who’ve got themselves turned out and
there’s more to people, asking the right questions itself.

00:19:55.000 --> 00:19:59.999
Can we feed the world? Is the
opportunity for us to do this really?

00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:08.000
[music]

00:20:10.000 --> 00:20:14.999
PEI has an opportunity still
to do something before

00:20:15.000 --> 00:20:19.999
we’ve lost all this knowledge, before we’ve heard lost
all farmers. So let’s just say, \"We have choices.\"

00:20:20.000 --> 00:20:24.999
You know, we can give this in chemicals, we can have organic,
we can add GMO free. All of these things are on the table,

00:20:25.000 --> 00:20:29.999
we can do it if we want to do it as farmers. So let’s not
say, \"We can’t.\" Let’s just say, \"We don’t want to.\"

00:20:30.000 --> 00:20:34.999
That’s okay. Say, you don’t want to but… but
not… not no longer say we can’t do the stuff.

00:20:35.000 --> 00:20:39.999
We’re relatively smaller for 1500 farmers.

00:20:40.000 --> 00:20:44.999
So we have the option of working together.

00:20:45.000 --> 00:20:53.000
[music]

00:21:00.000 --> 00:21:04.999
\"Hands dance. Seeds grab what they can.

00:21:05.000 --> 00:21:09.999
Seeking a place to crouch the Neil than stand there
are a thousand ways to bending kiss the land.

00:21:10.000 --> 00:21:14.999
And we need these plants, they hold nutrients
like hope like smoke let it rise and let it go,

00:21:15.000 --> 00:21:19.999
they are alchemist to chlorophyll
turning nit to gold.

00:21:20.000 --> 00:21:24.999
The planet knows had a breeze,
how to keep itself clean nature

00:21:25.000 --> 00:21:29.999
nurtures its babies, its elderly, its matrons
in a doesn’t need saving as much as we think.

00:21:30.000 --> 00:21:34.999
We are the impatient ones expecting,
quick, enormous in cheap.

00:21:35.000 --> 00:21:39.999
But there will be reason to grieve to one and
all. If we can slow the system’s changes,

00:21:40.000 --> 00:21:44.999
our planet subtle sadness. Let us take
for goodness sakes, a moment’s pause.\"
