through exquisite, often invisible natural-process flows and cycles.
As solutions found naturally in Nature, these can:
> recool ground-surface temperature by more than 40°C degrees
> regrow spongy soils to hold more water to reduce flooding and drought
> reduce local sky-air temperature to reduce global warming
> recompost lands to reduce wildfires
> restore magical snowflakes for colder, wintry days and snowfall
> renutrition foods to > rehealth the human gut biome and preventative health
> rebalance severe weather events
> revitalise economies based on applying Nature's logic
> More than just theory, Nature repair is practical, profitable and is happening now.

Beneath our feet and in our hands, helping Nature is
> what's known as Earth's soil carbon sponge - wet, cool and soft
> powered by diverse plants above and diverse microbial life underground
> captures, stores rainfall protecting it underground in chains of ponds
and in-soil reservoirs for slow release rather than as a flood
> that re-wets, re-cools, re-composts landscapes
> to reduce drought, heatwave, wildfire, flood extremes and frequency
Nature's restoration, regeneration and repair is diverse.

Climate-calming Natural farming
As the world's largest agro-ecology (growing food with Nature) program, legislated by Prime Minister Modi, nearly two million mostly women Indian farmers transition deserts back to food forest—cooling landscape by more than 40°C degrees.
365-day green cover is one of Nature's secrets to regrowing soils and in turn nutritious, affordable, chemical-free food every day to everyday families.
It is the beginning of a larger global movement.
Stephen filmed and produced this film (10 min) collaboratively with Regenerate Earth and Andhra Pradesh Community Natural Farming Natural Farming (APCNF) teams.

Can Whales cool Antarctica?
These majestic creatures continue to provide a crucial role in helping to form more clouds that can cool oceans and icy lands, formed the first time with these incredible processes in Nature.
Beyond just a focus on reducing fossil fuel emissions, how did and can Nature super-cool the Southern Ocean and Antarctica with these underwater leviathans?
Watch Stephen's introductory film Can Whales Cool Antarctica? (4 min).
Helping Nature form more snow
How does Nature form snow? As the original snow maker, regrowing and transitioning back to native soils, plants and underground biology helps Nature form more magical snowflakes. Native grass pollens, soil and tree bacteria and fungal spores are the best biology particles in Nature required to re-start natural snow-formation process. Transitioning away from chemical and pesticide use is key. The result? Wetter, cooler soils create more wintry, colder days.

Fire vs Fungi: Canberra
Join Walter Jehne and Katja Hesse in the Rainforest Gully at the Australian National Botanic Gardens, Canberra, Australia. Walter was involved with the creation of this living rainforest in the 1970s.
In Canberra's suburb of Acton resides a most surprising living-nature experiment: a healthy functioning rainforest on a site that has been regenerayed from previously eroded, hard-baked soils.
Nature literally regrows soils to cool the planet.
Fire vs Fungi: Australian Alps
2026 practical regeneration and recomposting mountain forest soils to reduce wildfires
Y Discovery Camps Victoria, Sport and Recreation Victoria with Regenerate Earth are scoping a grounded demonstration. Stay tuned.
Just like a compost heap, healthy forest soils have a carbon-nitrogen ratio of about 20:1. Together with native 'scratchivores' like lyrebirds and bandicoots, dry, crunchy ground litter like leaves and branches can be digested back underground into wet, cool and soft soil.
Re-wetting alpine landscapes to help rehealth snowgum trees.
Everything in Nature is a balancing act. When bark moisture is 80% or more (Associate Professor Leah Moore ANU), this contributes to a snowgum's health in defence of critters such as wood-boring beetle.
Can re-wetting alpine soils to bank water uphill rehydrate and rehealth ancient snowgums? From the friends at Octopus Tree to the Bush Doctor teams, educating and training communities, see the on-the-ground demonstration which can scaled across the Australian Alps.
Can wild populations of Bogong Moth in their breeding grounds be regenerated?
Can re-growing Nature's largely-invisible ingenious ancient underground networks grow more Bogong Moths naturally in their breeding grounds across Australia?
Growing Islands faster than sea level rise
While sea level rise is forecast at 1 millimetre
a year, Nature has and can grow soil from coral-based atolls up to 4 millimetres-plus a year.
