Water Crises SOLVED! | Paani Fdn India #4

Permaculture instructor Andrew Millison journeys to India to film the epic work of the Paani Foundation’s Water Cup Competition and Farmer's Cup Competition. We tour the village of Savargaon Tal, in Maharashtra, who competed in the 2019 competition to install the most amount of water harvesting structures in a 45 day period, and competed had farmer's groups compete in the Farmers Cup Competition in 2023. Guided by Paani Foundation’s chief advisor, Dr. Avinash Pol, we visit the work and see the effects of a watershed-scale groundwater restoration project that has dramatically improved the lives, economy, ecology and stability of this village, and experience the feeling of deep stability that comes with a healthy and abundant landscape.

I live in Maharashtra and I'm a water conservation engineer. As a subscriber, I feel so proud seeing this video. Pani foundation is the main inspiration for me for transperant and effective colab working. I'd suggest you make another video showing how pani foundation and water cup competition are held how they are scaling up. Training part be covered in detail. Awesome video btw.🎉

[@Grimsage777]

I would love to see that video idea!

[@amillison]

I would love to visit during the water cup competition and film the process. Right now they have not run that competition since 2019. But I believe that now that Paani has figured out the full cycle of education, from Water Cup to Prosperous Village to Farmer's Cup, they will go back to the Water Cup competition to get more villages beginning the process.

First we start here locally. We coordinate doing one in each state. OOOOOOooo! They already have obstacle course racing going on. We could pitch an idea to these companies that host these and organize an event where land is sectioned off by the local government that has unused land and it's the Water Cup Challenge. Boom!

@@JasonMullavey And if you know much about the history of California you know that is going to be a hard fought battle.

Even harvesting rainwater here was illegal up until 2012ish

Hey Andrew, I am also a farmer from Maharashtra and have loved following your work with these villages. Just a humble suggestion to add Hindi and Marathi subtitles/audio to your videos for better reach. It would make it easier to share this information with locals here :)

[@amillison]

I would very much like to. I am talking to someone about dubbing into Hindi, but now it looks like AI may be able to do that easily. So keep on checking and hopefully this will be done. The first series does have Hindi and Marathi subtitles already

[@The_Rencho_Tech]

Hey Andrew, I am not a voice artist, but I can dub your videos in Hindi, as you are bringing such quality video which can be so informative for Farmers and people of my country so for me it will be a community service, as I can’t make quality video as you, but at least can make it available for everyone… Again Kudos for doing such amazing work Man..🫡

Greed and entitlement from white people

[@PC-tz6rw]

I am a Maharashtrian, ( same place the video is about ) and stay in a city fed by three large dams. .. meaning water surplus.... But the practices of hoodlums as farmers with large tracts of lands in government positions are running the state dry. They flood their lands with open furrows leading to loss by evaporation and percolation (this isn't by way of rains , which would have been beneficial as it would recharge ground water) Add to them the blasted city dwellers who have such pigheaded people who waste water as a matter of inheritance! ( Having "bought" their rights to use water in toilets the way they want🤬😵‍💫☠️ ! ) The amount of water flushed down toilets in pigeon-hole apartments is enough to aquify several sq km of arabel land! This water is actually drinking water ! Extreme sacrilege. When you wrote "mother nature is so forgiving.." I had tears in my eyes! We got to stop taking nature for granted. Am a grown man who has seen a lot in these past 5 decades of my existence on earth. And we are not being kind to ourselves..at all. Nature has a way to deal, and I shudder at the consequences! Just venting my frustrations! Hope no harm done!

Deep respect from Canada 🇨🇦

[@sutapasbhattacharya9471]

This is not the first time something like this has happened in India. I recall back in the mid-1980s watching an Open University TV series here in the UK called Wheels of Fire about sustainable development initiatives in rural India and the episode that I still remember something of was about the now quite famous Mulkanoor Cooperative and the Milk Production Revolution that occurred in India [which is now the world's largest milk producer]. The rise of anti-Collectivist NeoLiberalism in the West after Thatcher and Reagan has reinforced the hyper-individualist ethos and apotheosis of political economy as the be all and end-all of society in the modern West leading to such unsustainable emphasis on wasteful and polluting growth, housing crises etc. Of course, prior to the British colonial parasitization, deindustrialization , creation of dozens of manmade faines and looting of tens of trillions of dollars in wealth and false propaganda image-making of India as a land of Eternal Poverty, India was famed throughout the Old World for its vast wealth and abundance of produce etc. Indeed, not only was India the world's largest and richest economy just prior to British occupation, economic historian Angus Maddiosn estimated, that India was the world's largest economey for well over 3/4 of the last 2,000 years.

[@willm5814]

@@sutapasbhattacharya9471 obviously you know what you’re talking about! Very interesting insight - It looks like Vandana Shiva has been a key figure in fighting attempts from the US to ‘hijack’ the Indian agricultural system, what is your take on that?

[@sutapasbhattacharya9471]

@@willm5814 Unfortunately YT just deleted my lengthy response and I did not back it up it up - probably due to self-referential info. I will try resending my response to someone else from the USA which I made just before I saw your response to me: Although knoll9812 is largely correct in pinpointing the difference between India and the USA at the moment, there is a shift occurring in the USA and West in general emanating originally from India. That shift is related to the New Age Movement and the cross-over of the new Yoga-based Spirituality without Religion - with its interconnectedness to all things [contra the Judaeo-Christian Theist myths of human separation from Nature etc.] in terms of 'Ecospirituality' etc. Many of the best-connected US researchers into Consciousness-related phenomena and UAP etc. understand that we need a new Science based on the Primacy of Consciousness [i.e. equivalent to the traditional Indian Brahmanism - Harvard professor John Newport wrote that New Age essentially boils down to All is One - the universe is interconnected Consciousness/Energy - or Brahmanism. This new science will reverse the false despiritualization of Nature by modern Science based on the Christian Spirit/Nature dualism and and Galileo's false doctrine of Qualities which rejected conscious experience as supposedly unreal! I know about this because I myself am leading the way with my work synthesizing Science and Spirituality which has excited scholars worldwide [mainly in the USA]. The Western emphasis on hyper-individualism and apotheosis of political economy and GDP growth as the be-all and end-all of society is being challenged already. In the longer term the rise of Asia will accelerate the shift away from Western exemplars to a more sustainable, collectivist approach.

[@sutapasbhattacharya9471]

My second attempt seems to respond seems to have worked. I was also pointing out that the new Ecospirituality thought recognizes the need to reverse the Spirit/Nature Dualism of the West in order to address properly the environmental and sustainability crises. The likes of French Orientalist Guy Sorman has argued that, contrary to the Communist Party of China myth that Chinese ideas will become increasingly relevant [whereas China has eradicated it own traditions and become devoured by the West] - as many thinkers of the 20th Century such as Sorman's mentor Roman Rolland, Carl Jung and Arnold Toynbee - along with the likes of Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay (the father of Indian Nationalism) and Nehru argued - we need to blend Western Science with the Spiritual Genius of India. Sorman thinks that the Indian ideas that will dominate the globe will be Gandhian sustainable development ideas and eco-feminism [in the sense of the Feminine within all humans which Hinduism emphasizes]. But others have argued that it will be the rise of Indian Spirituality which will transprm the 21st Century. I am primarily a metaphysician who has synthesized Science and Mysticism and thus can confirm the latter as my work has recently been exciting directors of Consciousness Research Institutes across the USA and India etc. and scholars worldwide. The primary influence of such a synthesis and Universal Spiritual Philosophy based on NonDual Brahmanism and Buddhism is to undermine not only Physicalism-Materialism - but all Theistic Religion which imagines a Divinity separate from Nature and Humanity - opening the way for a Universal Civilization. The overthrow of Materialism with its false Multitudinism (separate particles or atoms) which arose with Capitalism (the Medici sponsored Galileo etc.) and shift to Oneness/interconnectedness will undermine the dharmic societal reflections of such materialism with its Transactionalism - exchanges of energy between distinct entities - as reflected by monetary transactionalsim with the apotheosis of the Capitalist god - the Invisible Hand of teh Free Market. Look up "Undermining the Walls of the Ivory Towers of White Mythology". You can also look up Jason Hickel India for startling stuff about what the British did in India.

i was watching a recent video about the clash between iran and afghanistan on water rights in their border region, especially the damage done to the Hamun Lake region. It would be great if the powers in the region would put aside their issues and ask for help like from the pani foundation( and millison, and any others i dont know of) to minimise the impact their conflict was having and repair the local eco system. countries around the world are facing conflicts over water and maybe if they asked for help in water conversation it would help reduce the regional tensions( it wont eleminate them though)

[@amillison]

I was just watching the same video (by Caspian Report) and I was thinking about how their climate is so similar to Rajasthan where I have seen really incredible water management projects (which I will publish soon). They need to stop thinking about only the large rivers flowing between the countries and start working on replenishing smaller local watersheds and building local groundwater supplies through rainwater harvesting.

Is there also en effort to protect the villagers of these illnesses?

[@karanprabhu4317]

The farm ponds are added with guppy fish that eat up the mosquito larvae so no new epidemics of malaria or other mosquito borne infections have occured
