*National Geographic series “EARTH A New Wild” Season 1, Episode 02: “Plains”, featuring Allan Savory who discusses how the ideas underpinning his former elephant culling program in Zimbabwe were transformed into a ground-breaking theory of holistic land management and planned grazing that redefined the traditional practice of conservation.

*Allan Savory’s e-book, The Grazing Revolution: A Radical Plan to Save the Earth, December 2013, telling the personal story of his long journey of discovery in managing holistically and restoring degrade lands worldwide, with lucid explanations of how it all works (only $1.99!).

*Allan Savory’s milestone 2013 TED Talk, How to fight desertification and reverse climate change, addresses the “Perfect Storm” of the current global climate crisis by promoting a solution to the complex and widespread desertification problem: holistic land management and planned grazing. Using examples of soil regeneration in areas such as Zimbabwe and Patagonia, Savory illustrates how planned livestock grazing can profoundly restore barren desertified land to a lush, healthy grassland. Restoring grasslands in desertified areas across the earth has enormous potential to sequester atmospheric greenhouse gases and can play a major role in reversing the climate change trends.

*Peter Byck on Bill Maher, 4/12/13.  While the game might be over for reducing carbon emissions enough to achieve safe atmospheric levels, in this brief interview Carbon Nation filmmaker Peter Byck assures TV host Bill Maher that there is a way to draw carbon out of the atmosphere right now: strategic livestock grazing. By working with cattle and other land grazing species to replenish degraded land, we can capture enough carbon to restore the planet and mitigate climate change.
