Grasslands and Carbon by John Fullerton

John Fullerton, founder of the Capital Institute, transitioned from Wall Street to become a sustainability advocate. Influenced by E.F. Schumacher's "Small is Beautiful," he collaborated with Allan Savory, founder of Holistic Management, to restore grasslands and return carbon to the soil. This work was highlighted in an October 2010 interview.

The Capital Institute seeks to harness capital for a just, resilient, and sustainable economic system. The Savory Institute restores global grasslands through Holistic Management. The Schumacher Society, founded in 1980, promotes strong local economies linking people, land, and community.
