Forest Man - He didn't stand on a street corner shouting about it. He didn't go on a protest march. He didn't even write to his government. He just went out alone and did something to make a difference

Since the 1970's Majuli islander Jadav Payeng has been planting trees in order to save his island. 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.
