The Neem Tree is rarely mentioned in the broadcast media. Pharmaceutical companies have been researching Neem for decades (allegedly more than any other plant) but have no financial incentive to increase awareness of a plant which is a non-toxic alternative to thousands of chemical products (pesticides, fertilizers, medicines,cosmetics…)

This 1st section fo this video is my edit of a video already available online:
Al Jazeera- PEOPLE AND POWER -”The independence tree” from 2008 featuring “Neem militants” in Senegal who are using Neem to prevent malaria.
