    Sepp Holzer, the Austrian farmer renowned for his accomplishments in reshaping and revegetating the land, has paved the way for an ecologically rich and abundant future worldwide. Taking a radical and innovative approach to farming, Holzer chose to emulate nature. By embracing natural principles and replicating the intricate patterns found in ecosystems, he has transformed once-unfarmable terrains into thriving, self-sustaining landscapes with an abundance of water and food.
    Despite the challenging conditions of his steep and rocky childhood mountain side farm, Holzer defied convention and introduced groundbreaking techniques to nurture diversity and symbiosis. His unconventional methods were often met with skepticism and resistance, earning him the nickname the Rebel Farmer.
    This is the start of a feature length documentary on Sepp Holzer. This teasesr is for part 1 of the film "Courage from Nature: The Story of Sepp Holzer" the story of the inspiring journey endured by Sepp and his family as they championed their unique vision for creating paradise on earth.
    Part 1 is coming in summer 2023 to the Water Stories Community:

    What a legend! Imagine taking over your family farm as a teenager and then making it a paradise. We need millions of Sepp Holzers all around the world! Then we can heal our planet and ensure a prosperous future :)

    Zach Weiss, I am trying to get your attention. I greatly applaud what you are doing with "Water Stories". I've only known about your work for a few days now, but have already watched quite a few of your videos. There are ways that I could help you. At age 77 I have been aware of the problem and the solution for about half a century, and I have not been idle. Not sure if you noticed a comment I made on one of your other videos, to wit, that if you wish to see what I can offer, you could start with the link I will give in a moment. But there are two things I need to say up front about Sepp Holzer and about Keyline. They both have the right idea, but they depend on fossil fuels and they don't stick strictly to perfect contour lines with perpendicular drop structures but rather use earth moving machinery and transits to establish swales with slight slopes and then zigzag them. They also needlessly rely on ponds, which can do more harm than good. Shallow zanjas (de infiltracion) starting at weirs (as opposed to dams) on true contours, only about a foot wide and 6 inches deep, dug and maintained by hand (shovel and hoe) is a better way to go. No machinery is necessary at any point. If a pond develops, it will be upstream from the weir. The water will flow in either direction within the zanja according to which end of it is open. The zigzag effect is achieved by alternating the drop structures from one developing "anden" (or terrace) within the developing "andenaria (or terraced landscape) to the next. Think of rice paddies, but originally with individual slopes. Okay, here is the link: ruclips.net/p/PLuJbg6eLC7Y2zEoIQo-o7lDMqE18-L7B1

    And what about the illnesses due to 🦟 mosquitoes? Ideas 😅?

    • @Water_Stories
      @Water_Stories  5 месяцев назад +1

      It's counter intuitive, but healthy water bodies have plenty of predators and therefore very few mosquitos. Mosquito larvae in the water are sitting ducks and food for everything else. It's in areas with seasonal puddles, areas with water but no aquatic predators, where mosquitos really thrive.
      Usually it's a little more buggy at times around dusk and dawn right around the water, but outside of that you don't notice any increase. In fact some students have noticed a decrease, at times when there were tons of mosquitos elsewhere, around the water bodies there were fewer.

    Great video -- I'm not sure if the tropical leafcutter ants were the right choice for the animation though.

    Yeah, in reallife people don';t have the money for machines too digg bigg ponds fast.

    • @julialovesalice
      @julialovesalice Год назад +2

      That's not entirely true...Yes, not having money makes things harder, but there are a number of ways to acquire machinery. There are a bunch of people from Zach's course doing big things with little money all over the world right now.

      We use shovels and spades, they still work. Start small if you can't afford big machines. Rather than pointing out the problems find the solutions
