Chicken and egg?

I like "Greening the desert", a Youtube 5 minute video about hell on earth being turned into a permaculture garden paradise with 1/5 the water usually required.

After setting up a few km's of this kind of desert garden, the garden waste, weeding, prunning, etc could stock a local biochar unit and with the biochar plant geared up the right way, maybe even give the locals some biodiesel as well?
That was one of the most inspiring videos I have ever seen.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.
