#ChineseGovernment says #relocations are poverty alleviation measures & new locations are ecologically sound, so that affected #Tibetans can improve their livelihoods by relocating, Pearson said.
“But in reality, that hasn’t been the case because many of the people are #pastoralists, and they live off the land, but when they move to more urban-like areas, the work options are different & they would need to speak #Chinese rather than Tibetan,” she added

Invasive species of #Opuntia are a big problem in #Kenya,
especially in the dry north, threatening grazing land and livelihoods of #pastoralists.
Most people who are confronted with them do not know that the whole Opuntia plant is edible/useful.Meet Pera Foods, who know how to make #wine from the cactus' fruit.
They employ locals to forage fruit from wild Opuntia,
creating jobs and income from the presence of the unwelcome invader.

#Opuntia , an invasive and unwelcome #plant in many places,
e.g. in (northern) #Kenya, where it threatens the livelihoods of #pastoralistsmay also be a source of food for both animals and humans (e.g. known as #nopales) - an article from #southafrica 2019

Livestock are often considered harmful for the #environment and for #climatechange (especially in the west and in factory farms), but in India, #livestock herders and #pastoralists can play important roles in #conservation and restoration of ecosystems, especially open natural ecosystems.

More on the #Opuntia (stricta) invasion in #Kenya, rendering grazing lands useless for #pastoralists and their cattle, while the #plant itself, though edible and a source of biofuel, is not utilized.
