Green the world.
The time is now.
Inventing a liveable world for everyone.
Inventing a liveable world for everyone.
Great men among us have invent all kind of simple to use techniques make the soil fertile. These men have observed and studied the nature around them. Those pioneers started to understand how to work with the flow of the nature, rather than trying to cultivate it. They developed methods to mimic nature. Most of them are simple and can be rolled out on a big scale.
The knowledge is there, the time is right. In history we never had so much resources as today. Their never was so mutch energy and information available. We can green the world, restore the landscapes, stop desertification, top up the groundwater levels, stop erosion, restore the forests and grasslands. And pass a green world over to the generations to come. .
The goal of this website is to share knowledge. A platform with usable methods. Methods for large and small areas. From complete ecosystems to small (artificial) projects. A meeting place for knowledge and the latest insights. The goal is to create awareness of the big picture, and to offer simple tools that everyone can use. You can contribute to this by providing us with information. Proven methods or usefull information will be posted on this website.
Holistic management is about how humans can live in a fragile ecosystem like the savanna or the big grass plains. The key is to mimic nature rather than cultivate the land. Discover the function of the grazers.
The Groasis water-box is a clever designed box who feeds a new planted tree exactly enough water to survive its first year and develop roots to become independent. The box also protects the tree against wildlife.
What happens to rainfall on bare dry soil? The rainwater runs off the bare ground and evaporated. JustDiggIt is a movement who learn locals to catch the rainwater and green the bare ground.
Permaculture is a science for designing the human living environment in a way that is ecologically sustainable and economically stable. It is a way of life. Learn everything about our natural place on the soil.
“Hoff is a visionary Dutchmen, inventor of the water-box with an “out of the box personality”. His goal is to stop desertification by planting 12 million hectares of trees. Over the years he has further developed the waterboxx into a Growboxx, to grow food and trees together. The brilliant of growing a tree in the boxx is that it gets a strong root system.”
“Zimbabwean ecologist born in 1935. Co-founder of the Savory Institute. He teach a holistic framework for decision making. Applicable for farmers, communities and nature conservation. His teaching's are based on a long life of observing and analyzing nature. His mission is to large-scale regeneration of the world’s grasslands. As he explains in an astonishing 2013 TED-talk.”
“Norwegian scientist invented a process to mix nano-particles of clay with water and bind them to sand particles to condition desert soil. The treatment gives sand particles a clay coating which completely changes their physical properties and allows them to bind with and hold water. It can change any poor-quality sandy soils into high-yield agricultural land in just seven hours.”
