Veiled Plants

While working with an NGO in Senegal, I noticed these unusual acts of conservation in the town of Podor by the Mauritanian Border - an area on the front line of climate change.

“There is something disturbing in seeing the extraordinary efforts made to protect plants from the effects of climate change, but there is something beautiful too in the care behind these simple act of stewardship. It’s an alternative vision of how we might relate to the natural world – one that could lead us away from extraction towards restoration and conservation.”
