This channel spotlights many ways we can collaborate with, and help enhance, the living systems that enable life on this planet; resulting in greater health (true wealth) for all of us. The planting of the rain (and other water-harvesting strategies) is a major emphasis of this channel, along with neigborhood-based native food forestry, and sun & shade harvesting for free heat and light in winter—and free shading and cooling in summer.
I focus on inexpensive to free strategies accessible to all. These are simple and effective ways we can act locally to improve life where we live, work, and play; while simultaneously improving conditions globally for the larger watershed, community, and world.
