How the “lost cities” of the Amazon were finally found
Martin Crowford's forest garden tour
# Physical ecosystem
This is Men Made
To the surprise of all, Amazon may have been a man-made ecosystem. Pieces of evidence pile up toward this idea. But this idea stays alien to us. We know that commercial civilisation builds cities and trade roads, but what is the metaphysic of a civilisation that builds forests?
Imagine a world where the leaves of trees are eatable. And the food forest ecosystems are self-managed. Martin Crowford Filmed by Commonfactory rediscovers these techniques for temperate ecosystems in Devon.
One of the solutions for a food-sustainable future.

# Physic ecosystem
This is the Night Sky
All ecosystems are like Matryoshkas dolls. Each Doll is the content of another doll. The doll above will determine what you find below. And each doll is a riddle that you may solve.
From the East to the West, cultures tell this story as a box inside a box. Where the above will always drive the beneath. This simple understanding is useful to orient yourself. By knowing the sky you will know what time is it, without the need for a watch. And You will know where you at without needing a map.
So now, check your skyline and ask yourself what is the function of the tallest thing you can see. And what is your position about it, if you don't know, enquire about it. Note that all the cultures before us was fearing the sky like mad, and there are good reasons for it. The solar system may not be as stable as we currently believe. If everything goes well you should learn only humility.
