"We definitely need art, and music, and disciplined, nonviolent, but very real anger. Mostly we need to tell the truth, resolutely and constantly. Fossil fuel is wrecking the one earth we've got. It's not going to go away because we ask politely. If we want a world tht works, we're going to have to raise our voices". Bill McKibben

This special fallowing of the land is written into the Torah and demonstrates an understanding of agriculture little known today in commercial agriculture.
