Anyone who doubts females mental capacities or girls in STEM education needs to watch this..... hat's off to depth of science discussed here - and all communicated in English. Wowza!

Put a title like "They lied to you about dehydration" in the thumbnail and increase your views. Sad, I know.

Listening to this extremely interesting interview I am thinking one thing. The EU subsidies must take into account the relationship between water needs and water availability and based on that limit subsidies for certain crops to aereas where they can be produced sustainably in terms of water. If they pay subsidies for an amount of broccoli that necessarily overexploits the available water, they miss a crucial responsability. That gap of control must be fixed!

The total amount of water is not changed by airplanes. They are not using water that was not already in the water cycle. So the notion that water vapor from airplanes changes global temperatures is nonsense.

This video needs to go to every government environmental departments immediately.....they are literally killing nature.

This video is pure gold, I've always known that where plants grow it naturally rains....this video proves my theory.

Critique: soils need to be aired out, not compacted. One way of alleviated the downstream eutrophication derived from agricultural runoff of fertilizers/waste is how you edge farm fields. Key is to berm it up at the edge. Impervious surfaces. Water runs off or floods. Answer: preserve more open space. Enough of having to develop every single piece of land.

Youd think improving the landscape would mean focusing on the 7 layer forest structure (canopy, understory, shrub, herbaceous, root, groundcover, vine) predominantly made of edible, commerical and habitat species most suited to the climate both foreign and domestic but 🤷‍♂️. Jmho.

Are there any updates on the al baydha project? I’d love to see how if evolved after Neal left

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

I am Egyptian and I support your idea about it

This is fascinating!

Thanks for this!

deserts are necessary landscapes, just like forests and mountains and tundra. Why do men have to conceitedly think they need to change nature? Leave it the f alone and learn to live in harmony with it. Have you learned nothing the last 500 years?

regreening the Sinai would also help encourage more population growth there. Currently the Sinai only has 600k people. If the sinai is greened it could help some of Egypt's congestion issues in its mega cities like Cairo and Alexandria. More people would probably be more open to the idea of moving there since there will also be new opportunities for tourism and other industries in the Sinai as it gets greener and greener and more able to sustain larger life. Having a larger population in the Sinai is also important for security reasons. HAving more people will mean more funding for security and safety and so terror groups that have ran rampant in the Sinai will be more challenged. Additionally, Israel has recently expressed interest in moving Palestinians to the Sinai which is illegal in international law. A big part for why it encouraged that is because the Sinai is so big and so empty. If the Sinai is properly populated by Egyptians there would be less logic and feasibility of pushing the Palestinians out of Gaza and into Sinai.

When he said, " I know cows, shit, grass and fungus", that made me laugh.

What kind of tree seeds are the cattle going to eat?

I'm do glad someone has finally seen what beavers can do. I'm from the west and we have had a beaver pond for decades. We have spoke as a family how important it is to keep that damn up and the beavers there. We have seen how it's changed the land and fertility of the soil for the farmers. My grandfather is Metis and a trapper. 85 and still going strong! You can see what the beavers have done for the area from space. It would be neat to get a scientist out there!

We all need to share this... lets do our part...

I enjoyed how you said "when we bring the wetlands back" rather than "if we bring the wetlands back". Such an awesome conversation, thanks for brining this to the world.

Gives a lot of credence to the large scale production and usage of activated BioChar

Geoff Lawton has begun successful projects in the Middle East and Australia. He also did a documentary about a community in (Oman?) centuries of water management and abundance. Also, Alejandro Carillo has restored a lot of acres in the Chihuahuan desert. Similar techniques.

You aren't getting support from the media or politicians because they profit, ideologically, from "climate change". The only solution they want is more government. Great talk! I'll be doing this on my tiny (relatively speaking) parcel in Texas.

Why only 996 views since July 2023? You need to post this on multiple channels - this vital information is not getting viewed.

Someone please connect Roger with Elon Musk

If I understand the graph at 51:00 correctly, then it makes sense to me that this could increase the amount of water going into the nile. Which could be very interesting for the Egyptian government, since it would give them even more food security than the sinai alone, and it could prevent a future war with Ethiopia

Cows will definitely be up early to graze when the dew in on and even more if it's Foggy. Definitely getting that moisture.

Your comment about water vapor made me think about cows seem to go to the lower area at night. Wondering if maybe they are doing this so they can absorb the water vapor created in the cool night air??

What a mind.

The snarky political comment about a right winger is off putting. This guy ignores that many permaculturists and similar practices vote right instead of left. Think his approach is faulty as well. Plants will grow in sandy, degraded soil, but they need water for reintroduction. For faster regeneration of water cycles they need biome-appropriate, pioneering trees as well as small, frequent water catchments from onsite materials, starting in the foothills. Starting in the foothills immediately decreases water lost to evaporation, as well as raising the watertable higher in the landscape. The catchments capture water, windblown soil, and plant matter. They raise the watertable rapidly, higher in landscape. They cool soil. They create spots for pioneering vegetation higher in the landscape. Brad landcaster wrote 2 books on the different ways to capture rainwater in drylands. Pioneering trees like prosopis are ideal as they fix nitrogen, provide food for larger animals, as well as food for people. When animals come in you get dung which covers soil, and hooves creating divots, that rebuild healthy soil biota. Larger animals also create divots that capture and hold water, silt, humus and seeds. With places that capture water wildlife can come in and build a place naturally. Using livestock in the lowlands is important. He is missing a key component of rebuilding lowlands. In addition to poop, larger livestock create diivots that accumulate silt, water and seeds. Dredging creates turbidity, harms fish, and disturb pollutants. Dredged silt can only be used with trees as the trees take up the pollutants into the bark. If used for grasses and other non woody plants, the pollutants are passed on to those eating from the softer plants. Dredged silt is of little use. To regreen and reclaim land they need to have plant and soil diversity. I heard zilch on agricultural practices. How you farm is important. Monocultured annuals in a harsh dryland environment is folly. Food-producing, alley-cropped, biome appripriate trees, shrubs, vines and perennials require less water in the long run than annuals. Avoiding synthetic chemical inputs is also key as they adversely affect important soil health/diversity. Livestock could be used in the place of synthetic chemicals to manage weedsm fertility, pests, cull, crop residues, etc . Mark Shepard wrote a book on restoration ag that has principles that could be applied here. At one point he says he isn't an engineer, then he says he is an engineer... Think considering mangroves is a possibility. Mangroves produce a lot of moisture into the air, which would help rebuild rain cycles. If the climate falls into the right hardiness range, and as much of the native vegation is extinct we need to consider mangroves along the coast.

Very inspiring! As a long time practitioner of permaculture and lover of soil science, this makes perfect sense to me. It's time our leaders make way for new, workable systems! Thank you for sharing this. Let it rain!

excellent video

Absolutely phenomenal, thank you Alpha this is so inspiring and optimistic. I am gonna write a blog post. 🤣😍

thank you ! Your works are so important !

Thank you!

It very interesting! Thank you Alpha Lo and thank you Anastasia for explaining again all the mechanisms. In France, following your studies, we are trying to show, with mapped weather datas, that biotic pump works also on much smaller scales and also that it still continue to work further if you have continuous territories with permanent photosynthesis (without tilled fields) like a mix of small forests, woods, regenerative agriculture zones, permanent prairies, wooded countryside etc... The first results shows that on such lands we have at least 300 mm /year more precipitation compared to neighbor areas with conventional agricultural practices wich are now suffering permanent rain deficits. Same conclusion for average ground temperatures : -5°C versus the intensely cultivated areas that are quite hotter (and dryer). The first idea could be that if we maintain sufficient natural forests along the ocean to start the biotic pump, we should maintain behind (under the wind) at least a mix of permanent photosynthesis combination to not interrupt the biotic pump and to obtain a rain corridor that go further and further inside the land. In case we interrupt this permanent green combination of landscapes with large tilling zone and conventional agricultural pratices with nude soils on hundred of kilometers it will probably stop the biotic pump process.

I would also be discerning because the pretty rainbow UN sustainable goals is concerning. It is anything but sustainable in disguise. Read the fine print

❤️ so right there with you.. how can we find the others to make ecosystem restoration one of the true careers of the future!? I feel I have been a lone permie walking this earth in pain because I can see it all...

... condenses into clouds ...

Isn't there a bacteria or a microbe on the leaves surface that helps form moisture? What is I called again,, besides just the stomata opening...

excuse me!? if you take MORE water from the Colorado to AZ & California you absolutely effect precipitation because you automatically decrease the vegetation & diversity in the eco system due to lower water levels!?

Its hard to put this in laymans term gj!

fascinating topic and you have some great information here. do you have any books on the subject of 💩 and it's importance in reforesting and restoring the soil? thanks for the time!
