John has traveled the tropics building biomass energy projects in third world countries for decades. Plants are living solar collection batteries and are the most efficient way to convert the suns energy into usable, clean and sustainable energy. We have a surplus of carbon in our planets atmosphere. We can capture this carbon by creating new plant matter and utilize this endless sources of energy. Our native plants have evolved to survive with only natural rainfall and nutrients. By utilizing our local native plants we can offset the carbon imbalance, create a living habitat and insure a livable planet for generations to come. All living things prosper when the correct native plant species are present. Balance is restored and the life-force is restored to the land. Join me as we work to heal the planet with green and growing life-force.

John has developed and facilitated over 50 workshops, symposiums and has taught plant science for many years in colleges and institutions around the world. His class participants take home a special and unique understanding of the dynamic and cyclic nature of our living ecosystem. He can captive audiences and focus on the “learning moment”.
