The more you try to sterilize the environment, the more abnormal the ecosystem gets, and the more aggressive everybody needs to get for those limited resources. And so that’s where we see overwhelming infection and pathogenesis happening. In a field of organic soils, and wildflowers and massive biodiversity of a jungle, you don’t see viruses affecting the plants, you don’t see viruses taking up. It’s only when we start to monocrop anything – and that’s why it wasn’t really discovered until tobacco – until we started monocropping potatoes in the great Irish famine or the phenomena of corn, soybean and wheat and all of this – until we started monocropping we never saw viruses behave at all pathogenic. And so I would argue that it very much was a change in terrain that led to the emergence of the discovery of the tobacco mosaic virus, as you laid out so beautifully, and to say that they were unhealthy plants – like you said, it’s not like they were stressed or having – this was a healthy field of tobacco. Well, it’s because we keep trying to define health within a single organism that we’re failing there. And in the same way, we fail to identify what a healthy immune system is, as you pointed out there. Health, actually, now that we back up to the 30,000 foot view that we’ve seen in the last 20 years, has nothing to do with the individual organism. Health is entirely dictated by, entirely necessitated through and entirely created by biodiversity. And as soon as you lack biodiversity, you become vulnerable. Because the genetic updates that are happening to the virome, for example, are unbalanced in their messaging. You don’t have, you know, 10 to the 31 viruses in that same pocket of air because you’ve sprayed herbicide, pesticide, or you’ve created a monoculture environment where you’ve overplowed the soils, you’ve destroyed the bacterial microbiome, so they’re not producing the same exosome-like bacteriophage, introduction of viral information in the environment. And so a single virus that now blows into that environment can overwhelm the genetic, you know, matrix or the genetic update process that’s going on and that can take on the behavior of a pathogenic process, when in fact, there was no pathology intended. The virus that was causing that had no intention of harming tobacco. It was simply giving it a genomic update, but the terrain had become this monocultural environment. And so we suffer a very severe version of this philosophy when we look at a child today. We think we have to protect this child from all the bacteria, the viruses and everything else, and so we want that child, like you mentioned with the chickenpox example, we want that child to be introduced to the maximum amount of biodiversity as early as possible to make for the most resilient biological organism possible. We’ve taken the opposite approach.” <br /><br />01:52:08 - 01:55:21<br /><br />Zach Bush on A New and Ancient Story E49: Life is a Community<br /><br /><a href=\"https://charleseisenstein.org/podcasts/new-ancient-story-podcast/dr-zach-bush-life-is-a-community-e49/\" target=\"_blank\">https://charleseisenstein.org/podcasts/new-ancient-story-podcast/dr-zach-bush-life-is-a-community-e49/</a>",
