Allan Savory: How to green the world's deserts and
reverse climate change
YouTube
Published on Mar 4, 2013
"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 factor can protect grasslands and
even reclaim degraded land that was once desert.
