    I’ve been watching youtube videos about this lately. The trees shade smaller plants and between them their roots wick water down into the water table. As a result, dry seasons get milder and erosion reduces.

          That’s all so beautiful! The video. The project. The project leader. The landscapes.

          Thank you for the links! Really worth the watch!
