Judith D. Schwartz

Judith Schwartz is a longtime freelance writer with wide-ranging experience with books, magazines, newspapers, and a variety of writing and editing clients. She has written articles for women¿s magazines, co- and ghost-written books with therapists and doctors as well as a couple of her own. Her work then went in a different direction when she wrote an article on the Transition movement. When the 2008 financial crisis hit, she started asking questions like, What is money? Each inquiry led to more reporting, which took her on a whirlwind journalistic tour of New Economics, which sees the purpose of the economy as serving people and the environment. This lead her to environmental economics - which lead to soil. From all of this research came her book entitled Cows Save The Planet. In her book she shares insights on how we treat the soil can tilt us toward environmental and economic resilience.
