To date he has single handedly planted a forest larger than Central Park NYC. His forest has transformed what was once a barren wasteland, into a lush oasis. Humble yet passionate and philosophical about his work. Payeng takes us on a journey into his incredible forest.http://ofwa1.blogspot.com/2017/08/forest-man-william-d-mcmaster-william-d.html A co-production between: Polygon Window Productions: polygonwindowproductions.com Title Media: http://www.titlefilms.be Download the original soundtrack by Mike Ritchie: http://mikeritchie.bandcamp.com/releases Category Nonprofits & Activism License Standard YouTube License SHOW LESS COMMENTS • 1,293 Oscar del Rosario Add a public comment...

I want to go there and work with him. Such an inspiration! Reply 310 View all 12 replies Letty Lunasical Letty Lunasical2 years ago Regarding his solutions at the end of the video; is there maybe a petition we can sign to get the Indian government to take his ideas seriously? In England there's not much I can do to help, but with international pressure we can all help this man continue to achieve his dreams and possibly save an entire Island whilst doing so.

Your love is immense, thankyou for caring so much for Nature. May the Yakshini's bless you forever.

We all come from very different backgrounds; we all share our own unique stories. This man example should serve as a reminder that EACH and every one of us can and will make a difference! You might not have access to untouched land/island/ private backyard. BUT you do have access to roads, you do have access to streets, you do have access to parks, and even garden… and if you go a bit further out of your comfort zone, you will find plenty of barren “spots” Hey throw a seed :), plant a tiny bush or a plant, or even a tree… Hey you could even play Ninja, and even pretend as if no one saw you do it. Crazy idea right? But it will make a difference! And the difference is coming from you! And by the way, seeds are so cheap! May be there is a street you walk ever day, and it has a few barren spot. Wouldn’t it be nice to throw a few flowering seeds and watch that spot change after a few months??? I have a little over half an acre of land. I have a pick, I even have a shovel. And I am throwing seeds where I want the place to change. The most important thing is to be patient!

Reply 87 View all 37 replies BLACK CHI BLACK CHI1 year ago I absolutely love this. A selfless man doesn't talk about change but acts upon it himself. Bravo Jadav Payeng your light is inspiring. Reply 74 View all 2 replies empathy97 empathy971 year ago Moral of the story : If you have a big goal in your life , you can achieve your goal by taking action bit by bit , little by little every day . Reply 63 rajkamal das rajkamal das1 year ago As much as I am proud of the fact that I come from the same state as this great man I am equally anguished at myself and fellow citizens of my state and country that except for recognising his contribution that too so late we have done precious little to help him in his tireless crusade against all odds to make us breathe and live better. Mr Payeng and his family needs to be taken care of and his monumental achievement must find its way to the textbooks and must be a part of our folklore for generations to come.
