Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
Is it possible to turn desert back into useable land?
I started helping plant moringa trees in burkina faso. We have helped plant 30,000 trees over the past year. It is kind of incredible to see how a red earth dry arid land can look lush a year later.
This is a great idea, but given that much of the Sahel is a war zone it is unlikely to really see much progress any time soon.
Shout out to Pakistan. Have already planted one billion trees and planning ten billion in the next 3 years
I thought Africa went back and forth from desert to jungle over thousands of years.
Now, that's a wall we can all get behind.
As Bolsonaro is destroying the Earth's lungs in Brazil, this is such an amazing initiative!
You're killing the sandworms!
We need this to be done here in Australia to bad we have a prime minister who thinks coal is clean energy. Nothing will change with these people and my generation and everyone after me have to live through Warner winters and record breaking summer heat waves.
Think about it this way 16 million is all it will cost and that money is cheap but Iām sure the ministers and people would rather it go towards coal and ways to make them selves have more money
