John Graffio describes water issues and possible solutions.

In this Climate Discussion Nexus "Crystal Ball" video Dr. John Robson looks at the easily foreseen global greening due to rising CO2 levels that climate alarmists resolutely refuse to see even after it becomes so obvious it's visible from space.

I have been waiting a long time to make this video! The mesquite tree is finally starting to set bean pods, which means I can give you a detailed look into this wonderful permaculture tree for arid desert environments. I'll also be showing you the best way to harvest mesquite for food use!

The Mesquite (Prosopis genus) has been a pioneer plant in arid to semi-arid environments for millennia. It is a nitrogen fixing legume that also provides shade and nutrients to other plants and animals in locations where those things are scarce.

It has...

Beekeeping in a Layens hive is NEW TO ME, and I'm learning the ropes on how to work a Layens hive. Come learn with me.

A qanat or kariz is a system for transporting water from an aquifer or water well to the surface through an underground aqueduct. Constructed in Iran, Iraq, and numerous other societies, this is an ancient water supply system that allows water to be transported over long distances in hot, dry climates without loss of much of the water to evaporation. The system has the advantage of being resistant to natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods and to deliberate destruction in war. Furthermore, it is almost insensitive to precipitation levels, delivering a flow with only gradual variations from wet...

Qanat is one of the wonders of desert cities. I visited three qanats in Yazd Province. A qanat or kariz, is a system for transporting water from an aquifer or water well to the surface, through an underground aqueduct. Constructed in Iran, Iraq and numerous other societies, this is an ancient system of water supply which allows water to be transported over long distances in hot dry climates without loss of much of the water to evaporation. 

The first qanat was in Ardakan City, which was also a museum, and you’ll hear lots of stuff about the...

Have you ever wondered if water can flow uphill? In this video, we dive into the incredible engineering of the Alhambra Palace in Granada, Spain. Join us as we explore the history, architecture, and groundbreaking technology behind one of the world’s most stunning architectural masterpieces. Discover how this medieval marvel used advanced hydraulic systems to power fountains, underfloor heating, and even water clocks.

A wind catcher, also known as a wind tower or wind scoop, is a traditional architectural element used in some arid and hot regions of the world to provide natural ventilation and cooling to buildings. It is typically found in areas where the climate is characterized by hot, dry summers and cool nights.

Chale Sonbak is located in Aran o Bidgol Country, Iran. It’s a region where they cultivate watermelons without water, in the desert (desert farming). The watermelon produced here, has many medicinal properties. With Mr. Ramezani, we visited his father’s farm in Chale Sonbak and saw this dry farming method in person.
