Nearly two-thirds of the planet is on the brink of desertification. Could this alarming trend be a driving force behind climate change? There's a prevailing notion that wild animals disrupt natural habitats, but what lessons were learned from the culling of 40,000 elephants? Did this drastic action alleviate the problem, or did it exacerbate the environmental crisis? What can each of us do about it? If you are not interested in climate change we can promise that there are a lot of life-lessons to be learned from this episode.   Allan had a famous TED talk back in 2013 and it has been seen almost 9 million times. He is also the founder of the Savory Institute.   Allan Savory is a Zimbabwean ecologist, farmer, and environmentalist, born on September 15, 1935. He is best known for developing the holistic management framework, an approach to managing resources such as land, livestock, and water in a sustainable and regenerative way.   Savory's holistic management emphasizes the interconnectedness of ecological, social, and economic factors in decision-making. One of the key principles is the use of properly managed grazing of livestock as a tool to restore and maintain healthy grasslands. Savory argues that well-managed grazing mimics the natural behavior of large herds of wild herbivores, contributing to soil fertility, biodiversity, and overall ecosystem health.   Enjoy
