Wholesale deforestation has made the rainiest place on Earth a "cold desert" for eight months of the year. Pursuing his birthright as forest guardian in Meghalaya, India, global citizen Bremley Lyngdoh plans to reforest the area and restore the water table.

Issues of land rights, restoration, climate and social change unfold in India, the UK, and at COP15.
