The Holy Grail of Restoration: mending the Sinai Peninsula

Fascinating project, I don’t know if it’s starting or still needs funding.

A quote (I’m on my phone and don’t see how to format this):

“My own journey has led me to understand that it is possible to rehabilitate large-scale degraded landscapes, including restoring vast areas degraded over historical time. I have also learned that while this is possible, it is in no way easy. There are certain natural principles that it is necessary to understand—including that biodiversity, biomass, and accumulated organic matter are central to evolutionary outcomes and ecological function. When humans shift away from this scenario to degradation of these essential processes, it inevitably leads to ecosystem collapse.”

His YouTube videos are worth checking out.

Thanks Julia and Mandy.  Here's an easy link to one of his videos from his site to get folks started into his videos:
