Video - Permaculture - Greening the Desert

Permaculture - Greening the Desert Final (2009)

Geoff Lawton elaborates on his successes in the re-greening of desertified, salted lands in Jordan.

Permaculture at its best!!!

This is just one example of how permaculture can transform the environment, and, in so doing, dramatically change lives. By evidencing the dramatic transformation possible in the world's worst agricultural scenarios, we hope to make people stand up and listen.

Part 2 will take you to the original Greening the Desert site, letting you see its present condition after six years of neglect when funding ran out in 2003.

You'll also be introduced to our new project site the Jordan Valley Permaculture Project, aka Greening the Desert, the Sequel and see some of the spin-off effects within Jordan from the influence of the original site; promises of much more to come.
