Describing the work he does as “literally anything under the sun for sustainability," Abdul Razak Abdul Aziz, the founder of Social Eco Enterprise Development for Sustainability or SEEDS Malaysia, likes to get involved any way he can, working towards promoting a more ecologically-friendly lifestyle for us all. Together with his wife Intan and their family, they have been running a natural farming and sustainable living centre in Klang since 2017, and Razak believes that when it comes to farming, "it’s all about the soil - brown, living soil.” It was World Soil Day on the 5th of December, and we catch up with Razak about his work in permaculture, sustainable living and discuss ways we can all become “soil-mates” towards a greener future.
