I had a fascinating time teaching and filming in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Riyadh is the fastest growing city in the Middle East with the most ambitious tree planting and land restoration plans of any country I have seen. I was really glad to infuse some Permaculture into the process
اختتمت #جمعية_التنمية_الزراعية_بالرياض “#التجربة_العالمية_لنموذج_بيرماكلتشر_بالرياض”، بالشراكة مع @OregonState بقيادة الخبراء العالميين @AndrewMillison وماريشا أورباخ ، ومشاركة 25 متدربًا من عدة جهات حكومية وشبه حكومية وأكاديمية.

@AndrewMillison Love the illustrations Andrew creates and the deep ancient wisdom showcased in this video. Now that we're finally shaking off the weird elitist corporate American chains. Thanks to the survivors and the rocks their parents placed.

In this conversation, I sit down with permaculture educator @AndrewMillison to discuss the Great Green Wall project, a massive ecological initiative aimed at combating desertification in the Sahel region of Africa.

Thanks @WFP_Chad for hosting me to visit your powerful work bringing resilience to the over 1 million refugees from the Sudan war. It was a life changing experience to see how land repair can help people recover their livelihoods and dignity while building food security
Prof. @AndrewMillison was in #Chad a few months ago to discover @WFP's mission to ensure food security for Chadians & refugees at the #Sudan border.

The most important work happening now on the planet. Thank you, @AndrewMillison, for sharing this with all of us! youtube.com/watch?v=jfiH9T-i…
Nice to see my reporting on the massive restoration of the Sahel getting picked up by @Upworthy. If you haven't heard, check it out:

🌱 Witness ecosystem restoration in action.
These WFP-supported communities across the #Sahel are transforming barren lands into fertile fields and carbon sinks.
Watch with @AndrewMillison ⤵️
There's a shocking amount of progress for massive-scale land restoration in the African Sahel. I went with the UN to see it for myself. Here's the (first) video:

What the last 3 weeks in the African Sahel has taught me is that broad scale degraded landscapes can be rapidly transformed into productive ecosystems with surprisingly little investment. Restoring the 2 billion ha of degraded land on Earth will go far to stabilize climate chaos
Thank you @WFP_Chad for an incredible 2 week tour of land and life restoration in Chad. It is hard to describe in words how vast and intelligent the many projects we visited are. But luckily we have filmed them all! I will do my best to tell the uplifting story of your good work
Le talentueux Youtubeur américain et spécialiste en permaculture @AndrewMillison est au Tchad pour découvrir le savoir-faire agricole dans les provinces du Guerra et du Ouaddai. Sa dernière vidéo réalisée avec @WFP_Senegal a cumulé plus de 14 millions de vues à ce jour !
I am here in Niger, Africa documenting land restoration at a truly massive scale with the World Food Programme. One project we visited is 19 square miles of new water harvesting structures. Another visit was that same system 10 years on. This is the scale of solutions we need!
We just wrapped up a insightful exchanges and on-the-ground learning with permaculture instructor and documentarian @AndrewMillison, exploring Niger's ecosystem restoration efforts and engaging with local communities.
We can’t wait to see the results!
Your turn, @WFP_Chad!
The new plagiarism: people are feeding my 10 million view video into AI and making bad clones of it, using snippets of my footage, stock footage, and a creepy AI voice. The words are different, but the title and story are the same. AI artistic parasitism is a real thing now.
Quantifying carbon but not putting a value on biodiversity? President of Guyana calls out former colonizer on hipocracy.
Permaculture Design is seeping into mainstream ag discussions. The Capital Press is a major agricultural publication in the Western US, and they printed a profile of my Permaculture career. Who'd of thunk it....

OSU's Andrew Millison recently talked to Portland Monthly about permaculture design, part of the tiny forest movement taking root in Oregon.
