Allan Savory places emphasis on management practices, rather than fossil fuels and livestock themselves, in identifying the root causes of desertification and climate change, As a result, he argues for the global adoption of holistic management, which necessarily accounts for the social, cultural, environmental, and economic complexities of the issue.

Greening the Desert: Holistic Management in the Era of Climate Change - Allan Savory

The 1st Annual E. F. Schumacher Lectures of October 1981 emphasized the importance of vibrant regional economies at a time when the focus of the nation was on an expanding global economy. Much has happened since then. The promise of the global economy has faded in face of ever greater wealth disparity and environmental degradation. There is growing interest in building a new economy that is just and recognizes planetary limits. The speakers of the Schumacher Lecture Series continue to be at the forefront of this movement.
