While Andrew Millison makes great content, after a while, to me, it seems more of the same. I won't be sharing this for a while, and that's a shame.

Short : "Oct 31, 2024
How do you turn one of the world's hottest, driest deserts into a green, thriving landscape? 🌵🌍
In the Thar Desert of Northwest India, 25 million people have mastered the art of survival by creating sustainable agriculture with minimal rain. Watch as Andrew shows you 3 powerful techniques they've used to build water resilience, food security, and climate stability—even in some of Earth’s most extreme conditions. These development projects are spearheaded by Gramin Vikas Vigyan Samiti (GRAVIS)."
Longer: "Oct 25, 2024
Permaculture Instructor Andrew Millison travels to the Thar Desert in Rajasthan India to see the 40 year water harvesting and community development projects spearheaded by Gramin Vikas Vigyan Samiti (GRAVIS). We spent several days touring the Thar Desert projects of GRAVIS, and found incredible inspiration in the deep resilience of that harsh and dry region.
DISCLAIMER: The wet season footage was filmed closer to Jaipur, which is a slightly wetter region of Rajasthan. So for those of you who are very familiar with the Thar Desert ecosystem, you may notice the trees are a little bit bigger and more dense on the land then you find West of the Arvari Hills."

#ClimateChangeGardening: 12 strategies for a #resilient #garden

by Niki Jabbour

"#ClimateChange gardening is a set of tactics that make our yards and gardens more resilient to extreme weather as well as reduce our personal impacts on the climate. There are several ways to approach climate change gardening. You can use sustainable and organic gardening practices that put soil, #biodiversity, and #pollinators first. You can also plan to reduce plastic waste, up-cycle materials, and collect #rainwater.

3 reasons to care about climate change gardening

"Climate change gardening influences the health and success of your garden. When you nurture your soil, foster biodiversity, and support pollinators you create a garden that is more resilient to the challenges of climate change. Here are 3 reasons to care about climate change gardening.

- Extreme weather – The impact of weather related challenges like droughts, storms, precipitation, flooding, and above or below normal temperatures can be reduced with climate change gardening strategies.
- Pollinators, birds, and beneficial insects – Climate change can affect pollinators and birds in various ways. Weather extremes can impact migration timing and success, host plant growth and bloom time, disease and pest issues, and habitat and food supply.
- Non-native invasive pests and plants – With a longer growing season, invasive plants, pests, and diseases will move north and potentially affect plant health and crop yields."

Understanding #Climate #Resilience in #Gardening

"Climate resilience in gardening refers to the ability of a garden to adapt to changing climatic conditions and environmental stressors. It involves selecting plants that can survive #ExtremeWeather events, conserving #water, building #HealthySoil, and employing #sustainable practices that minimize #environmental impact.

The key components of climate resilience include:

- Biodiversity: A diverse plant selection can create a more robust ecosystem capable of withstanding pests, diseases, and changing weather.
- Soil Health: Healthy soil increases water retention and nutrient availability, allowing plants to thrive even during dry spells.
- Water Management: Efficient use of water resources is vital in periods of drought or heavy rainfall.
- Plant Selection: Choosing native or drought-tolerant plants can ensure that your garden is better adapted to local conditions."

"Why rivers shouldn't look like this | It's Complicated" [5:51 min]
by The Guardian

Quote by G:
"Jan 26, 2023 EUROPE
The quintessential image of a river you might recognise from post cards and paintings – nice and straight with a tidy riverbank – is not actually how it is supposed to look.
It's the result of centuries of industrial and agricultural development. And it's become a problem, exacerbating the impact of both extreme flooding and extreme drought. Josh Toussaint-Strauss looks into how so many rivers ended up this way, and how river restoration is helping to reestablish biodiversity and combat some of the effects of the climate crisis."

Due to climate change, population growth, and increased demand, water scarcity is expected to escalate significantly over the next few decades. Regions already experiencing water stress will face more severe shortages, impacting agriculture, industry, and daily life.
