Thanks Chris!! : )

Fantastic work!

fascinated with all of your magic. opens my heart stuff, Chris!

That’s why they make luggage move north.

Hey Chris, thanks for being out there! I'm trying to get you lined up with water in Flagstaff. There are wildfires raging in the Northern parts of the Gila Forest and into AZ. Perhaps not too surprisingly, folks there are being careful about their water. Will keep you posted.

Thank you! I have had similar experiences, seemed like magic, am boosted by your successes and am now studying your method to use here in FL.

This is such incredible stuff Chris! Now when you say it just flipped, is that a perception in your body like what you mentioned when you were watering the tree trunk? Or is there actually some measuring instrument that flips? Or some thing about the light that changes?

LOVE THIS❤

I appreciate how you say we need to focus more on protecting the Earth instead of thinking about how to get to Mars and inhabit it.

This is very interesting, l live in a part of Spain where we have so many chem trails that is obvious they are mamipulating the climate, this year we haven't had any rain and a lot of wind, l don't know if you share your findings freely or not but l'm really interested in trying them in this area, but of course l need more info, it's not clear the amount of water the separation between trees etc. to make it successful.

This is fascinating! Thank you!

If you are inclined to trust people who are the "real deal," then I suggest you look into what this guy is up to!

trying to work it here in Mexico, Chris. Thanks so much for all your valuable information.

Insightful presentation!

Wonderful information! Thank you, Chris!

Hi Chris! A friend just sent this over to me as I was discussing caring for my Live Oaks. I am very inspired y your video but before I share this with everyone I know, especially in my neighborhood, a question: Does this watering method replace or augment the need to water our trees?? (I have been a bit puzzled as to where exactly to place a soaker hose in my yard in order to water my oaks as the going practice is to deeply water the "drip line", which would essentially be my entire yard). Thanks so much and I can't wait to delve more into this practice of fire prevention, drought reversal, cooling areas...speaking of, are you working with the city/Tree Folks/Fire Department to educate them about this??

Thank you so much! I wasn’t aware of much of this information but it rings so true and fills my heart with hope for healing our trees, our neighborhoods, larger communities and our planet. I’ll be sharing this video with many people!

I did not know about the bark washing. The bucket drip method is so easy and a way I can water trees that my hose won’t reach. The genius is the simplicity! Thanks Chris.

You say you can generate systemic cooling and it is consistent, yet provide no evidence of systemic cooling. Can you show us on a thermometer how you are generating this cooling? How exactly do deciduous trees, "release a cooling moist wind"? Trees primarily absorb water through their roots, why is it better to apply the water to the trunk? In this heat, the water would evaporate off the trunk in 30 minutes which would provide a brief cooling effect to the bark, but probably provides very little water to the root system. 12-15 gallons is a spitwad on the watering needs of a Mature Live Oak.

Thanks for the info and ideas. Would you hydrate large Cedar Elms the same way as Live Oaks? Pecans?

How often should we do this? Once a week?

Since needleleaf trees are making it hotter, then I'm cutting mine down

How often should I be bathing the trunk? I used a Dramm gentle hose end on a wand and found I could more easily get to the underside of my leaning live oaks. Thanks for the video. I think I could hear my numerous oaks exhaling with relief. Also saw a couple of squirrels 'splooting' on the cooled parts of the oaks.

How frequently? I have been deep root watering every ten to fourteen days... interested in shifting to your method, but schedule suggested?

Make this a TikTok challenge!

This is AWESOME! Thank you!

Looks doable. Awesome!!!

Hi Chris. Thanks for posting this and all your good work! What's the difference between using the buckets versus spraying the trunk with a garden hose? Hitting it with the hose would seem easier and better saturation. Norm

Howdy, Mr. Searles! Ms. Spencer, your laugh is so natural and warm. Your talent inspires! Whoo Whee, Shinyribs!

Always a joy to watch and listen to you perform on keys, Ms Alice Spencer! Shinyribs wouldn't be without your talent and sass!

Really liked "Magenta Schwinn"! The lyrics and performance is so accomplished and a delight by Alice Spencer and her husband, Chris Searles! Thanks for this post!

You are so talented, casual, and inspiring! I'm talkin' about your husband, Alice Spencer! 😉 Ms. Spencer, you are amazing with Shinyribs!

Nice presentation. I’ve been following the USDA_NRCS for a while. To slot into your sphere of biodiversity is a bunch of research that shows why slash a burn is so disruptive of the rain forest eco system. The amazon has really crappy soil and if you disturb it’s cycle you get 2-3 year tops grazing and growing land then you have to slash and burn again. Piecing together the exploration logs of the Spanish explorers there was a very large civilization in the jungle at the time of their travels when they returned 10 years latter they were nowhere to be found. These were not just tribes but had large cities and millions of people in them. But the diseases the the Spaniards carried wiped the out. The question then remained of how the supported such a large density of people in the very poor soils of the Amazon. The discovery of charcoal mixed with pottery fragments was a first clue. Followed up by the “ever living” black soil that is coveted by the farmers there. This turned out to be large biochar mounds that the tribes made from burned forest debis if clay vessels to reduce the amount of air in the combustion. We have been learning about the benefits of biochar for the last 20 years or so and they were using it on some of the poorest soils on the planet to grow food. Recent studies have followed up rumors of the everliving black soil. Some families have been mining this biochar and selling it for generations. But they figured out if they leave 20cm or so of the soil alone in 20 years or so it’s back to meters deep without the addition of any inputs. They are now trying to isolate the biological reasons behind the everlasting soil. The NRCS has been promoting No till and other practices including grazing on farm lands. In their studies having herbivores trample through the grass lands eating the grass, but not destroying the roots because they are constantly moving, they provide the biological matter and trample the organic matter that the soil uses to stay alive. Their studies show that if we could restore the range lands and use the ever hated cattle as the herbivores they can replicate what the buffalo did and with the native grass root structure reaching down nearly 8 ft, this can by itself remove the historical carbon load that mans activities have generated and put it in the ground where it’s needed for life with biochar as the buffering agent that lasts at least 500 years in the soil we can feed the world and sink most of the carbon. Simply aligning the existing federal farm subsidies into a mandate for No till, cover crops and possibly grazing to qualify for the funds this could quickly become a big part of the solutions. Then add some industrial sized portable solar powered biochar plants where needed, Brazil seems like a good place as well as Texas and Arizona to start production using the old managed pulp wood forests as source material ( I’d include waste as well but we don’t seem to be able to keep toxins out of our waste supply) we could start a green belt back in the great plains. Then if the research can isolate the biology behind the ever living soil the cattle would incubate and spread the beneficial material doing what cows do, eat grass and shit out high value concentrated organic cow pies. The Aussies have successfully made self exploding cow pies to better distribute its goodness with out humans spreading the stuff over the soil. We couple have a self sustaining carbon sink, that even if we manage to kill or selves off or there is another global disaster life will continue on. Peace out ✌🏼 #keepmovingsideways.

beautiful!

Thanks Chris. Sharing this on FB. Good works to you!
