Reviving Mozambique's Ecosystems

In the wake of a long civil war, Mozambique's unique natural environment was significantly altered. Combatants and citizens alike plundered the country's plant and animal treasures for survival and sometimes, just for sport. Restoring the delicately balanced ecosystems is the focus of two articles I am sharing with you. Notice the two divergent approaches followed: in one, a zealous white billionaire is sponsoring the massive effort; in the other, various organisations are teaching the residents how to protect their environment and still pursue livelihoods. The results in the short term are equally beneficial. In the long-term, well, we'll see.

In the Gile Natural Reserve, Case 2:
