   #ClimateDiary more on #UK harvest disaster this year. Particularly heartbreaking to read about struggles of an #agroecology farmer, who fears her veg box business might go bust. These are people who are trying to provide alternatives, pathways to transition - it worries me deeply that climate change is making this impossible.

   Reminded again of Roger Hallam’s trajectory (founder of XR): it was his struggles as a #permaculture farmer that brought him to protest.
