Agriculture and its subsequent damage started 11,000 years ago in the Mesolithic Age. In the Neolithic Age men saw themselves as owners of the land. They felled our woods for more grazing land. They traded - in flint, salt, cattle and grain. As the population grew, their greed for power and control began pushing us towards a ruined world and climate change.

Visiting Neolithic sites while worrying about climate change brought the two subjects together. Something felt wrong. What had really happened so long ago? Surely some of those people were uncomfortable over what was changing their world? Slowly, in my mind, the characters in these stories made themselves known. All I had to do was to write their stories, their fear, their pain, their fleeing from the damage and coming together and fighting back.

All you have to do is read their stories - and take action.
