Way out of Ecocide and Climate Collapse


Hardly anyone knows what is at stake: no fungi - no future. Most of the CO2 in our biosphere is not stored by plants, but by fungi mycelium in the soil. The fungi mycelium creates fertile soil and recycles plants, animals, and humans. Fungi are the biochemists of our evolution. Deforestation and the monocultures of global agriculture are leading to an extreme loss of fertile soil. This then lowers the nutrient content and increases the environmental toxins in our food, a systemic effect of the way we live, poisoning and destroying our ecosystems, the conditions for our own survival.


Because the fungi genome, as the oldest kingdom of life, has allowed us to evolve on land, we depend on the same antiviral, antibacterial, and antifungal effects of fungi for our survival as our ecosystems. This is why all substances found in plants, insects, and animals are also in higher fungi. Together with their mycelium, higher fungi, the architects of our ecosystems, are also the perfect starting point for expanding fungi-mycelium-based environmental technologies for energy production, as substitutes for many depleted or eco-unfriendly resources, such as building materials or plastics, and other biotechnological innovations. This way we and the ecological cycles we depend on, can survive. For our life on land, the production of fertile soil and the use of mycopesticides in food production is ecologically most urgent. This is how we can assure a long-term essential food supply and low-cost, effective solution that regenerates our soil and balances our carbon footprint.


The primary focus of intervention against ecocide and climate collapse must be the transformation of our lifestyle, culture, and agriculture via investment in fungi-based environmental solutions. We need to think of fungi as food and our food as nature's medicine. Mushrooms are empirically suited for this because they have been the basis of traditional medicine worldwide since the Stone Age.


We need to transform agriculture and clean rivers and seas, clean the water of our blue planet. Without water, fertile soil and our forests turn into deserts.


To prevent this, we must clean polluted waters and contaminated soil through myco-filtration and myco-restoration. To counteract the increasing devastation of our planet and the associated species extinction, we must make our forests and their key evolutionary species like bees resilient to the ecocide through myco-forestry and myco-medicine! We must make our countries and cities resilient to climate collapse through strategic reforestation, land use, and home farming.


As bio-engineers of evolution, the regeneration of the fungi genome enables us to regenerate our currently collapsing living conditions. Only when we live in symbiosis with our environment and all its living kingdoms can we sleep safely again. For our survival, clean waters, healthy forests, and fertile land, fungi and their mycelium must play a critical part in our future. No Fungi - No Future.
