Description

This week, we're sharing an earlier conversation with Hank Dearden, who we featured in October 2022. He runs a not-for-profit called Forest Planet, and he’s able to do something truly amazing – he plants trees for just $0.15 each.How does he do it? By working within communities where the dollar goes further. He’s recently taken on a project in Morocco where they are planting fig trees, and where they are working to restore biodiversity, shifting from mono-cropped fields to biodynamic regenerative farms that incorporate more species, that reduce tillage, and that incorporate livestock. As he states on his blog page about their work in Morocco – which I’ll link to with show notes – The Right Trees, Planted in the Right Way, at the Right Time are an economically viable alternative. Before I share the episode, I also want to remind you that I’ve decided to support Hank and Forest Planet this year as my charity of choice.
