Landwirte und Gärtner:innen in Deutschland sollten sich nicht zu schade sein, ein paar der in'ner #Sahara erprobten (!!!) #Dürre-Gegenmaßnahmen anzuwenden, statt mit Dieselpumpen (!) Grundwasser in die Sonne (!) zu sprühen. #Wendland ist ja ganz schön, aber klimatisch günstiger wird's wohl nicht.

#Permaculture instructor #AndrewMillison journeys with the UN World Food Programme to the Northern border of #Senegal to see an innovative land recovery project within the Great Green Wall of #Africa that is harvesting #rainwater, increasing #food security, & rehabilitating the #ecosystem. #restoration https://youtu.be/WCli0gyNwL0

Thanks @znetwork for publishing this story about Radical Oakland #Permaculture
Permaculture instructor #AndrewMillison journeys to East Oakland, #California, to visit the legendary plant nursery Planting Justice, which primarily hires formerly incarcerated people. They provide a fair wage & benefits to former #prisoners with unbelievable results: a 2% recidivism rate, compared to 60% for the State of California.

The nursery itself has an incredible #diversity of edible and useful #plant species & varieties, custom selected to grow an epic permaculture #garden.

Fossil Free Food Systems: with guests, Jason Bradford, #AndrewMillison, #VandanaShiva, Daniel Zetah
Host: Nate Hagens

They "discuss the feasibility of a #food system fully or mostly independent of #FossilFuel inputs. While a non-industrialized #agriculture system is certainly possible (it was the norm for the majority of human history), what that will look like and how we even begin such a transition is daunting with a population of 8 billion humans to feed. How do we teach people the skills they’ll need as fossil inputs become less affordable, reliable, and accessible? Can we create a cultural shift towards a slower lifestyle that is more connected to the land which provides us food? What do the people of a society look like where we are once again centered around agriculture & in tune with the flows of nature? How would our relationship with #jobs & the land have to change?
