“You can fix all the world’s problems in a garden…”

Mr. Geoff Lawton is a permaculture consultant, designer and teacher. He runs the Permaculture Research Institute of Australia.
This next video is amazingly even more hopeful and positive. Watch as the first Greening the Desert Site has flourished, even when badly mis-managed. And behold the splendor of Greening the Desert Two, a sustainable, secure, homestead/classroom in Jordan, where Mr. Lawton and co-workers educate the next generation of international oasis builders. To watch this video is to see the seeds of the regreening of the world take root and sprout.
