READING, WRITING

Read 60 seconds in SAPIENS by Yuval Noah Harari.  He discusses the changes that occurred with advent of the Agricultural Revolution.  Foragers were living on a large variety of plant & animal species, but farmers focused on only 1 or 2 of potatoes, rice & wheat.  They relied on maintaining control over their lands, but if their lands were threatened by others, they had to move on, or fight.  This resulted in Sapiens becoming more violent than their foraging ancestors.

This makes sense to me.

I'm guessing that Harari is making the case against the Agricultural Revolution is such a way as to prove his point, which is IMO largely valid.

But what shoud we 21st C Sapiens do about it?

Dunno.  Reading on.
