So how big are your operations? How many people work at Regenerative Resources? I came here from the video about the Al-Baydha project video. And restoring ecosystems in as few years as that was, was incredible. Finally, anything common people can do to help?

@@howardwaz I have Howard, and it's thanks to your channel that I got to know about his great legacy.

[@cupofkoa]

@@howardwaz Just like your personal channel is a principle space for videos on Carl - might you be kind enough to share links to his principle papers please? I remember reading sporadic texts, then viscerally feel my mind bend a bit. For example, (disgustingly paraphrasing) - "minerals erode down the watersheds, into floodplains, then into the oceans. Our system brings the minerals back from the oceans onto the lands". All of a sudden, sea water isn't just a functionally infinite hydrological source - it's also an over-abundant source of nutrients (ie decades of agricultural runoff, etc). His thinking was quite unique as far as I can tell.

[@Nick-vl7lk]

@@regenerativeresourcesco.7735 That's great to hear, and noted. The website is looking great, as are the projects. The possibility of using seagrass as a potential grain crop is very interesting. After spending a good portion of time researching and helping design multi trophic marine aquaculture systems up in British Columbia, I understand some of the opportunities and challenges that you will face. Still waiting for macro algae farming to meet the audit requirements needed to qualify for Blue Carbon. Will your seagrass meadows qualify as part of the blue carbon funding schemes? So many questions for your projects, but I'm sure you are very busy. The idea of increasing real estate values based on ecosystem restoration is one that I'm currently investigating further, esecpially if it can be coupled with carbon offsets. Looking forward to see how the Meliton project comes together as I've got friends slightly further South in Todos Santos. All the best for your projects in the New year.

Do you focus on mycelium and Mycorestoration/Mycoforestry/Mycofiltration at all in your projects?

[@regenerativeresourcesco.7735]

We have never grown mycelium before, but we are seriously looking at it. We have proven we can grow on Salicornia straw. The biggest issue is whether WHERE our projects are located will support mushrooms in the marketplace.

[@AngelaMerkeltree]

@@regenerativeresourcesco.7735 Interesting! Thank you for the response! I was referring more to using Mycelium/Fungi to prep/regulate microbes in the soil and to filter and aid in the retention of water, but I understand that harvesting them may also be a desirable outcome. The books "Mycelium Running" and "Radical Mycology" are both interesting resources worth looking at - could possibly help with some of your projects.

[@cupofkoa]

@@AngelaMerkeltree I imagine you're generally referring to regenerating the mycorrhizal network? This occurs as a bi-product of restoring water and nutrient cycles where the land was once degraded. Mycelium is globally abundant, and remains dormant until conditions are favourable. If you revise Neal's work in the Al-Baydha project, ecological succession led to a regeneration of the mycorrhizal network within the watershed - a classic indicator that you're on the correct path.

Too bad there isn't more of this happening on a grand scale. You accomplish projects like this in a baron landscape with few resources in a poor country all the while the rich polluting nations find excuses and elect politicians that allow big corp. to reap rewards and huge profits from the Earth's resources. They never taking responsibility for the mess they left behind and leave it to the tax payer in many cases to restore as much as possible, even that is no match for eco systems that took 10's of thousands of years to create and will never bring back habitat for animals and creatures that once had a home.

@@regenerativeresourcesco.7735 These are great educational videos and I wish there was way more people watching and doing their part to help.

Fixed it up, got rid of my car, bought a peddle bike with baskets for shopping and grow all my own food. Next year I'm going to start converting to green energy. I may never really live long enough to reap the benefits but I'll leave something that will for someone and their family. For most of us, this is the path forward, convincing governments who's sole purpose is to look after their citizens as cheaply as possible doesn't work fast enough.
