“Save the World Through Soil” – Fasil Shalu

This video chronicles the story of Vijayan Pillai a 73-year-old expat farmer based in Abu Dhabi for the last 43 years. He was inspired to take up farming through HH Sheikh Zayed and was amply supported by the Abu Dhabi Ministry. Today his farms account for over 30 varieties of fresh produce, grown using natural farming techniques. Soil is the only natural resource that observes carbon from the atmosphere. If 73-year-old Vijayan Pillai can do it, we can all do it. Start planting today to save tomorrow.
