Imagine transforming a desert into a thriving ecosystem in just a year. 🌱
In Niger Africa, villages came together to plant 100,000 trees and spread 20 tons of grass seed across nearly five square miles of land. 🌳 With rows of Half Moons capturing water and nurturing life, the land is coming back to life—grasses, trees, and even water are returning.
Watch as a one-year-old restoration site evolves into an eight-year-old oasis, proving what’s possible with determination and care.

9 out of 10 children once faced malnutrition in the Sahel. Today, resilience projects in Niger have transformed the lives of half a million people, lifting them off long-term food aid. 🌱🍅
Join Andrew as they visit a village with a regenerated water table and see the impact firsthand. On just 1.5 hectares of market garden—one of nine in the area—communities are now growing diverse, nutritious fruits and vegetables. These gardens are not only feeding families but improving nutrition and creating a brighter future for everyone. 💧🌾
This is the power of restoration: food security, better health, and hope for generations to come. 🙌

#Eni ha fatto causa a #Greenpeace per diffamazione, accusandola di aver organizzato una vera e propria «campagna d'odio». Siamo veramente nel mondo alla rovescia, come se Eni non avesse - che ne so - avvelenato per decenni il Delta del #Niger o l'#Iraq (Nassiriya anyone?).

In ogni caso, non è molto, ma almeno scriverlo all'assistenza Eni e cercare di cambiare contratto è pur sempre qualcosa.

Vi invito a farlo. Non costa niente e non sia mai otteniamo qualcosa.
