Shubhendu Sharma urges us to re-think lawns. To create a lawn, you must first remove what is already growing there, bring in non-native seeds, fertilize and water constantly, and use chemicals to prevent "weeds" from growing. Instead, Sharma encourages us to plant biodiverse forests, which have 30 times the green surface area of a lawn. Watch this INK talk to see how this former industrial engineer has devised a means of growing a mature forest in just 10 years. Me, you, plants, insects, animals - we are all connected by the same life force.  We cannot exist in isolation - we can only flourish if we co-exist.
