No - Quite the reverse. I should post an interesting video segment where Geoff is surrounded by Vietnamese students explaining to them how to mulch straw under a tree. He says to them that "that pall of black smoke you see hanging above your heads is due to farmers burning all their rubbish etc instead of mulching."

Oh, yes. This is the way of the future. Turning back to our former glory as natural beings.

Peace.

its horrible that this way of living is completly lost in america..just look at how healthy those old people were im mean that is the way to live with nature.human beings are not meant to live of mass produced genitcally modifed food that anmals wont even eat becuase they now it will make tham sick....but you know thats what the glbalist want they dont want alot of people alive since keeping a small number of people enslved is a lot easier than enslaving a lot of pepole

This is nice. i would love to live in such places. Unfortunately, this kind of oasis is disappearing fast. The number one reason: Greed. Land is worth a lot more in an urbanized environment. I have experienced this first hand because I am from vietnam. After 20 years, my old residence, once look like this place, is now filled with concrete homes and rubber farms. It's sad really, and as the human population continue to expand, it will only get worse.

they should document the locations and taxonomies of the plants in case they sell the property to developers or something

Fascinating. Someone ought to write a book on this one garden, and the dynamic relationship between all those generations of that family and this plot of land.

@highinthesky231 I think the best thing that could happen in America is to burn all the fast food joints and destroy at least half the automobiles, including the trucks, and get back to Street Cars, busses and trains and stop Urban Sprawl, return the land to agriculture. Vietnam is a developed nation. The USA is a over developed nation, and we could learn much from countries like Vietnam. Thanks to flastoons for such an inspiring video!
