    Love your reflections on conservation and struggles with shaping ecosystems

      Thanks, it's an interesting idea to me that to conserve something you have to let it change.

    Can a big change be made to the pond structure so you only have to empty it once per 50 years as Geoff Lawton would suggest?

      I think so. It would probably need some sort of walls along the edges, to prevent erosion coming from the sides. A sort of pre-pond to catch erosion before it enters from uphill. And then probably a plastic so that when drought comes and the pond naturally dries up water stays there long enough to make it all worth it.

    Can you write what mistake you made? English is not my first language so I didn't understand from video.

    • @foresnauts

      The main mistake I made is rushing to design something before I was ready. Then practically, digging the soil out and putting it on the uphill side. Doing that means that it will erode into the pond, and makes me have to dig it out every year.

      @@foresnauts I see. But why you didn 't put soil downhill so you could have bigger pond? I know it is easy saying after something is done :) Maybe you can make a wooden structure uphill that will be catching soil, something like a fence.

      @@pawel19677 Becauase I make bad decisions sometimes :). And a structure would definitely help.
