In a city with a rapidly dwindling green cover, comes a hero planting several man-made ‘food forests’ — a diverse planting of edible plants that attempts to mimic the ecosystems and patterns found in nature. With a remarkable passion for working with the earth, George Remedios left his job in advertising of almost a decade to become a full-time environmentalist and the founder of The Turning Tide Foundation, to combat climate change through social initiatives. Today, George has successfully created food forests, planting over 2,600 trees by tying up with orphanages, old age homes, while also helping communities like the tribals of Yeoor hills among others benefit from the harvest. This innovative initiative prevents waterlogging, managing waste that ends up in landfills, and helps create a source of income for vulnerable communities.
Tune in as we dive into George’s journey of helping positively impact the biodiversity through waste management in urban areas, and indigenous communities by turning the tide, one sapling at a time
