[@EmpressOfExile206]

Wait... so months later the *only* green is exactly where you dumped grass seeds at (guessing drought tolerant) and the rest of the soil is as arid as always with *zero improvement⁉️* 🤔 Also the fact those bundts were shown with standing 💧 in them means they *also* aren't "absorbing water" which was _the entire point..._ and in Sub-Saharan Africa those tiny puddles will lose far more to *evaporation* than absorption and be dry within a day 👏 Why not just build 1 large reservoir which would have *_real utility_* and can be used for irrigation (among other things) the same way *every* developed nation does it⁉️ Oh wait, maybe because that would require the "budget" actually being spent _on the project_ due to the costs of needing real heavy equipment, operators, & engineers! Instead of the budget going to the salaries of 1 or 2 "oversight managers" who then hand shovels to locals/volunteers while they use clever narratives and pseudoscience to market a positive PR story on social media 💯 This is literally just giving the *_illusion_* that it's having any real effect for people who don't ask ?'s or think too hard 👍 The worst part of this sham is *millions* of 💵 are being embezzled through this project as going towards the _salaries_ of 1 or 2 "project management staff" (cos we *know* they aren't paying the villagers who are listed as "volunteers") on a "project" which they admit doesn't take any expensive equipment and is done using local/"volunteer" labor 🤨 And anyone who's skeptical about how *useless* this "project" is... Grady from "Practical Engineering" channel has a video in his hydrology series *disproving* the "dry soil doesn't absorb water" myth and he even references the _original video_ that they stole the image of the "3 cups draining into the ground" from‼️👍 If a world renowned professional civil engineer who's specialty is hydrology can't convince you this is a scam; you're a lost cause... It's a shame because I truly believed in a lot of the work I've seen from you guys! Now I gotta take a 2nd look at old projects and maintain healthy skepticism of future ones 😔

It's like how bison used to till the soil of the great plain from just walking around in huge herds. Then people starting migrating west and building railways. Bison got in the way of transport so hunters from the Americas and across the world came to hunt them down, killing most of the bison. Thus the natural tilling of the soil disappeared, and the Midwest got dust storms.

@@sarahwatts7152 wouldn't call him an activists, but more like a visionary. Most of the techniques used for regeneration of degraded landscapes used in Africa come from his work during the drought in the Sahel during the late 80s and 90s. Unfortunately because he was a poor farmer with little formal education he couldn't promote his innovations beyond his local community. However, his work has been studied by international organisations and the traditional methods he applied have been widely adopted for land recovery.

Hoofed animals coming back helps break up the hard surface of the soil in between the smiles, allowing water to soak in everywhere. When we slaughtered the bison in North America, people didn't realize how vital their roaming was to the prairie ecosystem.

Huh. I never knew the roaming of bisons and other hoofed animals help water soak in the soil. That's a whole new perspective, expanding on how every little thing has a purpose in life! thanks for letting me know something new

[@sergegainsbourgii1852]

Same thing for the Kenyan elephants. Remember the UK "conservationist" who ordered the massacre of 40,000 elephants to "protect" the local ecology? Colonial arrogance has been so incredibly destructive & deadly.

[@LorannaKenny]

The same thing was done to millions of a keystone animal, the beaver.

[@winstonsmiths2449]

The hard surface is created by...hoofed animals! Wildebeest are native and they travel by the millions. It is what the ecosystem has evolved into. Breaking up the hard soil is not what they do, they compact the soil. Hoof shape and weight have certain effects.

[@CritterKeeper01]

@winstonsmiths2449 I attended a lecture on this very subject within the past few years, and it was described as relatively recent findings. The large hoofed animals do indeed break up the dry, hard surface, allowing both water and plant seeds etc to penetrate. This is still an active area of research, so they could still find even more new information that complicates the picture further, but this was the latest fairly recently.

[@karlsjunior466]

I drove through South Dakota, Nebraska, Eastern Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona this last week. The entire time thinking how simple it would be to catch the water and green the place up. I have seen similar techniques and am always amazed that we haven't done this EVERYWHERE!! The water shortage would be solved along with better food production and more wildlife. It should be a huge project.

[@NJTRAF]

Not only that but in areas prone to flooding it’s fairly simple to prevent it by planting certain plants and introducing certain wildlife to the area (the beaver for example) … I live in the U.K. and we have a lot of areas that are susceptible to flooding, and the obvious fix is to reintroduce the beaver. We hunted it out of the U.K. and the flood problems got worse. Reintroduce it and their damming would help to solve it, a basically free fix for an expensive problem. Similarly in Scotland because we hunted predators out of the area the native deer population exploded and had become a nuisance that hunting alone can’t control so now they’re wanting to reintroduce wolves, bears and wild cats to Scotland - although that in itself also brings some other issues around public safety and protection so it’s a lot more complicated a process. It’s amazing how many problems that man has created that we can solve by natural means though

[@karlsjunior466]

@NJTRAF I'm not a tree hugger either. It would just make sense to slow down the water so plants and animals can come back. I like plants and animals. They are both very tasty and we should have more of them. If we don't then we just use up what's there and then starve as a species. A food forest that takes care of itself is a good thing.

[@LorannaKenny]

@NJTRAF London has already started this process. They have introduced 200 beavers to the London area. Once they can see the results( about 5 years ), hopefully, they'll repeat this process in other parts of the country.

[@williamwade2674]

amazing video!!! In environmental science we were taught that soil is a non renewable resource that takes 10s of 1000s of years to regenerate, and while i guess that is true on the scale of the entire lithosphere, this video has been enlightening to me as it shows how quickly we can restore soil fertility in a matter of years!!!

[@neolight5694]

​@@thorwaldjohanson2526 This plus the soil is not actually useless soil. It's just dried out and probably still has a high potential for fertility if treated the right way.

[@Patrick-y4d1z]

@@thorwaldjohanson2526 It's not that - soil IS a finite resources and finite in nutrients. Take X amount of soil, and plant something in it - in order for the plant to live it'll utilise many of the nutrients within the soil. Over time those nutrients get depleted, which is a huge issue in farming and why they keep adding fertilisers. This is why protecting environments is important. All of those nutrients in the plant being taken away from the source expedites the soil running out of nutrients.
