  • Since the 1970's Majuli islander Jadav Payeng has been planting trees in order to save his island. To date he has single handedly planted a forest larger than Central Park NYC. His forest has transformed what was once a barren wasteland, into a lush oasis.
    Humble yet passionate and philosophical about his work. Payeng takes us on a journey into his incredible forest.

      Simple people in India live life that is far more compatible with the environment than the city slickers who have heard of Greta thunberg. Jadav Payeng happens to be be one of many people who care and make the necessary effort to heal nature. If you're not Indian, don't rush to judge. If you are Indian, don't look for credit by trashing your own people

      A. Nobel Prize would mean nothing to him. I would ask what he needs to help him plant more trees. Does he need tools or seed or seedling trees. Is there a tree he wants but does not have? I would ask if I could bring a group of children so that he could teach them how to plant trees. If you sent him 100 children and only one listened, then there would another forest in 50 years. Perhaps two or three children would listen. Planting seeds of wisdom is as important as planting trees. That is how to get a thousand trees planted.

      @@ViriatoII Great! And I'm sure you will agree with me that it is very important to plant only indigenous trees, not trees from other parts of the world. In my part of the world "people" had planted trees that look ugly and destroy the indigenous plants with shade (sunlight starvation), acidic leaves dropping on the ground, and aggressive seed growth. These non-indigenous trees look truly "alien" and ugly because they did not evolve there ... they take over and destroy the beauty of the once-amazing landscapes ... turning it into a crappy Disney World of mixed-up trees, rather than the perfect tapestry of colors and textures that is the earth when it is left the way it was.

      @@ce7857 Yes, completely true! If you met me in person you would see that I'm always talking about invasive species, my country is full of invasive Australian trees, it's terrible!!! We don't even have Autumn colors anymore, and fires kill dozens every year, besides destroying soils, biodiversity and even rivers :(
      I became a biologist and now I go even further: Just planting blindly native species can be problematic, as you should respect regional genetic richness. So I have mixed feelings about "industrial" native replantations, as they can bring seeds from 200-1000 kilometers distance, bringing genetic adaptations to wrong conditions. The best solution is these random guys that pick seeds up and plant them closeby, like in this documentary. Cheers!

      Planting a forest = dude. Breaking a Mountain = not a dude. Building a road out of plastic = not a dude. There is a big difference between a Man whom assists nature in regreening a destroyed area of this beautiful Earth and a person whom destroys a part of it or a person whom, without meaning harm, covers it in a toxic material that takes 10000 years to spontaneously biodegrade. Those plastics will break down into micro plastics that cannot be dealt with by friction and the effects of UV rays amongst other unintended consequences. The mans forest on the other hand will grow and in death support it’s own life and the lives of all whom dwell within, ad infinitum.

    When I was a kid, the local Hardware store was giving seedlings away on Arbor Day. I got one and planted it out in the yard where I lived. It was a tiny Blue Spruce, about six inches high. I can't believe that was thirty five years ago. As time went along, I didn't think much about the tree.
    My Mother has since passed and now someone else lives there in the house with the big Spruce. Every now and then I drive through the old neighborhood and it's surprising to see how big the tree has got. When I see it, I get a memory burst in my head of the young me planting that tiny thing and it gives me a warm fuzzy feeling. Jadav Payeng must get a thousand warm fuzzy feelings every day.
    It was frustrating watching him getting awards, when I know a guy like that doesn't want trophies. A guy like him, wants you to plant some fucking trees. If you think what he has done is great, have him cut the ribbon on the new tree planting project.

    This man is truly amazing and what he has achieved is phenomenal. However, I would like to just acknowledge that the women in his household have spent the same number of years preparing and packing everything he needs to be able to to go out and do this wonderful thing. No-one ever really does anything singlehandedly, we all have help that enables us to do great things :-)

I'm also glad to see small parts of India that are not full of trash, as I was told (and saw photos showing) most of India's ground, rivers and river banks are covered in depressing, soul-destroying plastic trash.

    I do believe that regardless of whereever we are from, how old we are, and how different our lives can ever be, we can still contribute in saving nature.
    If you are reading this comment, I hope your desires in life, are not those that can only benefit yourself. Try dreaming of a better place for everyone!

Every problem you will face in live, you will learn from it and grow by it. You will learn, because that is what growing looks like. I hope you will find a friendly girl, who has the same dream like you. Together you will have more strength to fight together for a better world for animals, trees, plants, oceans, rivers and humans. But be carefull with humans. Some will let you grow and inspire you. But some will try to rob your faith in you. Be strong, vulnerable, a deep thinker, forget your ego. Be you.
      Do never forget your dream, your purpose in your life path.
      One day, your children will be happy to have a dad like you.
      The animals will love you too and they will live in your dreams.
      The trees, the water, the plants, will florish and remember the life you protected.
      I do not believe in any god.
      But i believe in you, little boy... who will be a friendly man with a heart in the right place.
      Kind regards from belgium and be carefull to protect you allways. Stay healthy and well.

    Hi John Carlos , I am a 50 year old white boy who's still dreaming a lot. I am inspired to by these kind of people too. In my country, the Netherlands, people lost their connection with nature and reality. So things are very bad now. But, it gives us the opportunity find the connection back with nature again.

      Stay where you are and plant trees on your own lawn. We should all do the same right where we live. Plant trees and shrubs native to your area that support local insects, reptiles, birds etc.

    • @kennylambert6498
      @kennylambert6498 7 лет назад +8

      You can't just plant trees on your lawn in a suburban area unless you take into account house foundations (yours and neighbours), pavements, roads. The roots of some trees will crack foundations and you will have to pay to have it repaired. The local council or city will charge you for repairs to pavements/sidewalks. take into account your neighbours window placements, you cannot just block out someones light, they will sue you. I agree totally, go plant some trees but use your noggin.

    Children, now that is a superhero you should be following. That is a superhero whose comic books you should be ready.
    We all come from very different backgrounds; we all share our own unique stories. This man example should serve as a reminder that EACH and every one of us can and will make a difference! You might not have access to untouched land/island/ private backyard. BUT you do have access to roads, you do have access to streets, you do have access to parks, and even garden… and if you go a bit further out of your comfort zone, you will find plenty of barren “spots” Hey throw a seed :), plant a tiny bush or a plant, or even a tree… Hey you could even play Ninja, and even pretend as if no one saw you do it. Crazy idea right? But it will make a difference! And the difference is coming from you! And by the way, seeds are so cheap! May be there is a street you walk ever day, and it has a few barren spot. Wouldn’t it be nice to throw a few flowering seeds and watch that spot change after a few months???
    I have a little over half an acre of land. I have a pick, I even have a shovel. And I am throwing seeds where I want the place to change. The most important thing is to be patient!

      @nims60 8 лет назад +10

      +adnan tariq Yes, very true. When we bought our house, we got rid of the lawn and planted trees everywhere. Now we have a mini forest with lost of shade. There is no need for aircon as the trees keep the house cool enough, so that saves energy and CO2 emissions. And the beauty of living with a canopy of trees! Since then, we have planted a tree whenever we can, even in the smallest courtyard garden. My husband is thinking of buying some land that you cannot build on to just plant trees. That could be very nice, and we could go and camp there sometime.

      nims60 very impressive! I have to ask, where do you live? Because I live in NJ, and I have a lot of trees. some very close to the house, which could be a hazard during strong winds and storms. other than that, i'm fine with the tress growing as is.
      I plant some bamboo, to visually block a part of the landscape (yes i know bamboo can bgo out of control, i'm hopinf for it)
