 Hi, I'm Peter van der Gaag. I'm one of the directors of the foundation set up to support the Global Ecosystem Restoration Community's Movement. I'm currently at Ecosystem Restoration Camp Hadlem on the lava flow of Mount Shasta in California. Together with its founder Jonathan Cabot and my daughter were visiting this place, which was once a lush green forest being further re-wilded, being reclaimed from the clear-cut areas so that more trees would be here. This is all former clear-cut soil, barren, desertifying, because it has not been replanted properly, and then a giant fire hit two years ago and burned everything to the ground, including everything that made the camp, the campsite, the kitchen, trailer, the outhouse, they just evaporated, they just melted because of the extreme heat of this fire. Jonathan right now courageously and pretty much alone is trying to recover this place. Keep building on his dream that this becomes a campsite where people reconnect to wilderness, understand ecology, understand the ecosystems, and help slowly but surely restore this watershed, the natural area that is this watershed, so that the rivers flow clean. There's water and nature thrives, and when nature thrives, agriculture thrives and people thrive. So that vision is still his, but he needs help and he needs money and it's very difficult to get that for him. So I hope this little video helps you think about ecosystem restoration camp, hunt them, find them on our website, see if you can do something to help Jonathan, rebuild his dream, so that people come here to learn about ecology, about fire mitigation, and about life and how natural life reinforces human life. Thanks.
