About this Episode
This week Rich talks to second generation biodynamic farmer Mark Rathbone about biodynamics, replenishment of the soil, creating a closed system (circular economy) and the relevance of biodynamics in helping farmers mitigate against the effects of climate change.
We also have a little chat about the upcoming climate change storytelling competition Climactic is running for University of Melbourne students.
Check out the competition at http://www.climactic.fm/competition
We've got a new Facebook group, Climactic Club, where we'll share stories and develop topics for new shows. We'd love you to join in!
