#forestrestoration

[intlforestday]

It is possible to restore degraded lands at a huge scale.

The Great Green Wall for the Sahara and the Sahel Initiative, launched by the African Union in 2007, is the most ambitious climate-change adaptation and mitigation response under implementation worldwide. It seeks to restore 100 million hectares of degraded land, sequester 250 million tonnes of carbon and create 10 million green jobs by 2030, while greening landscapes in an 8 000 km belt across Africa’s drylands. Vast areas of degraded land elsewhere would also become highly productive again if restored with local tree species and other vegetation.

Hauoli la hanau to my lil mountain, he spent his birthday on a very bustling and activist weekend with everyone and his ohana “family” from Polihale to Waioli (Hanalei). Another year he navigates his way through it. A healthy tree to climb and view the movement below it. As all the parents and individuals chasing invasive fish captures to athletic coaching, and paddle out to #kanakaacademy for #ManokalanipoUniversity. He definitely enjoyed the experience and ready for the years to come. Today it’s back to Niihau and English lessons. What great successful weeks of planning. Our kids were worn before sunset all weekend, closing the daylight fire with cool beach baths and fresh sunset showers ending with pule of our kupuna, opio and makua. The spirits among us are moving , are gathering and bringing us together for our children. #teachemyoung #earlyeducationmatters #communityfirst #mountaintoseatrail #pohaku #maukatomakai #kanakamaoli #earthwarriors #waterrights #landrights #airspacerights #martialarts #oceanexplorations #foodforest #loirestoration #forestrestoration #coralreefrestoration #protectmaunakea #savewaialeale #waialeale #manokalanipo #maunakea https://www.instagram.com/p/B1pM86rnL4p/?igshid=1bp4a9csais5v

Leucaena leucocephala, is a marvel tree. It has many benefits and grows vigorously. But if you dont already have it then better think twice. Its just too good at what it does. The leaves are 25-30% protein, but can only be eaten by ruminants after an adjustment phase. You'd need to innoculate 10% of the herd with a rumen microbe that eats the toxic alkaloid mimosine. It was isolated from Indonesian goats. With this microbe Cattle and goats can eat it freely, and cows have been recorded gaining 1.7kg per day body mass feeding on pure Leucaena. Goats can put on over 100g per day A hectare of Leucaena can fatten 5 cows, or 40 goats, versus 0.3 or 2.4 on regular pasture It fixes large amounts of Nitrogen from the atmosphere and with it a lot of carbon. The soil beneath the trees becomes rich and full of humus. It can be coppiced for firewood Its roots forage down up to 8 metres and can use quite brackish groundwater. It would be perfect. If it were not so weedy. Its such a strong competitor for light, water, nutrients and space that it can outcompete most other vegetation We have some infestations on Tampah hills and its going to be a multi year process to eradicate them. Its one of just 5 environmental weeds we have. I dont use that term lightly, but a handful of plants fit the bill. To start we slash all growth, and lop adult trees to one metre, these coppice and we can cut for mulch without letting it seed again. Then the young trees can be chipped out with a hoe. Im glad it doesnt sucker from the roots, thats a small mercy. Root suckering would make it invincible! Eventually we will grub out the main stem. The seeds will continue to sprout for several years so its an ongoing procedure. Once the closed forest gets a foothold then its finally outcompeted by shading We have a commitment to not using herbicides in Tampahhills, so we will outsmart the plants by finding their weaknesses If you have Leucaena, you must manage and use it. If you dont, then there are better choices of plants #leucaena #weeds #tampahhills #forestrestoration #noherbicides #nospray #environmentalweeds https://www.instagram.com/p/BxHI7mJAx5a/?igshid=1wnw5h1rnbf8m

Upping global forest cover by 25% can reduce atmospheric carbon pool by 25%! Study shows #forestrestoration is the best #climatechange solution available today and provides hard evidence to justify the investment -- author Thomas Crowther, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology. https://t.co/D4vELyh4w4

Growing native tree species that bring economic prosperity to local people and adding billions of trees to farms through agroforestry systems can revitalize millions of hectares of degraded land. The investment is worth it: Research shows that every hectare of land restored in Latin America adds $1,140 to the rural economy, creating jobs and boosting farmers’ yields while providing clean water and ample food. It can also suck millions of tons of CO2 from the atmosphere, helping Brazil meet its commitment to the Paris Agreement on climate change
