Photo by @renan_ozturk @camp4collective // Sotang, Nepal. A young man comes back to earth after harvesting fodder from local trees for his livestock. In villages like Sotang, villagers know they can create more firewood and feed for their animals by constantly harvesting small amounts. Science also supports this, showing that this method yields far higher rates of biomass over time than from cutting whole trees.
