Are We In Charge of the Rain? Reversing Drought, and Naturally Cooling and Rehydrating our Landscapes
Increased flooding, drought, and wildfires throughout the world are challenging local and national communities, economies, and food production systems. Rather than taking a victim’s stance, Didi Pershouse will engage participants in an exploration of the the cooling and hydrating properties of the soil carbon sponge.
She will share land-management principles that individual farmers, ranchers, city planners, homeowners, and regional organizations are using to reverse these trends, and discuss ways that people are employing the wisdom of natural systems and microbiology to improve the water-holding capacity of soils in order to naturally cool and rehydrate desertifying landscapes.
