How to green the world’s deserts and reverse climate change

How to green the world’s deserts and reverse climate change, by Allan Savory.

“Desertification is a fancy word for land that is turning to desert,” begins Allan Savory in this quietly powerful talk. And terrifyingly, it’s happening to about two-thirds of the world’s grasslands, accelerating climate change and causing traditional grazing societies to descend into social chaos. Savory has devoted his life to stopping it. He now believes — and his work so far shows — that a surprising [non-PC] factor can protect grasslands and even reclaim degraded land that was once desert.
