In this documentary a legendary civilization thought to be too good to be true on the basis of the stories told by the Spanish explorer Francisco de Orellana, is found to be a real part of history. We can separate fact from fiction here, in that the golden riverbanks the Spaniard told of, were not golden as with precious metal strewn along them, but with something far more precious; CROPS !!
Delve into one of the most important facets of the past U will probably ever discover in this SIX PART extravaganza. It is a wonder headlines like CULTIVATION SHOCK: STARVATION IS OVER FOREVER, or GOLD ? BRING ME CHARCOAL AND I WILL BRING U ALL U CAN EAT !! did not appear immediately, and the governments of every nation brought together in celebration.
Two words .. .. TERRA PRETA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One mission . . . CULTIVATE IT & REAP A PARADISE!!! TURN DESERT INTO A GARDEN!!
ADDITIONAL: Some people have seen an opportunity for commercialization of this wonder of God's grace, and actually grow high energy crops especially for charcolization. While this is viable & maybe with reasonably amiable intentions, it misses the ultimate goal that the people of El Dorado/ the Amazon basin rainforest preColumbus found themselves ahead of practically the rest of the world by: harmony and balance with their environment. They did not 'waste' their organic matter, their leftovers of daily life, they kept it all in the cycle and with a twist of ingenuity found a way for their 'waste' to actually become their most valuable means of survival. If we do not harness this same opportunity today, God's wrath shall find us in the form of our very own failure at life and we will probably all be dead within a couple of hundred years, with only a few 'survivor' mutant 'elites', who suffer from nanobot viruses that cause them to continually punch themselves where it hurts the most, and eventually they will not be able to reproduce with their relatives anymore, and mankind will fizzle out none too soon. We should use REED BEDS to process our WASTE and then harvest the reed beds in their entirety for production of TERRA PRETA. This way within a couple of hundred years, ALL THE SOIL could be TERRA PRETA and there would be no malnutrition, while we could rest under the shade of trees that grow taller, and pick their fruits that ripen fuller than ever before. Some may call this idealism, and I call their lack of imagination, idiotism. Here's to the magic of life, and the end of strife :)
