Is turning deserts green a good response to climate change?

  1. Yes.... plants are both a carbon as well as a water sink.

    This is extremely good news coming at an auspicious time considering that several nations seem to be wanting to shift away from the USA Petro-dollar over to another currency.

    A project like this has the potential to be a great way to divert those 4.3 trillion USA Petro-dollars in a manner that turns out to be win, win, win, win, win for 99% of the residents of planet earth!

    Did you know that there are ancient Islamic and Jewish prophecies about the deserts of the Islamic nations being turned green in the "latter days" as Christians term or....."the last hour" to Muslims.... or..... the beginning of the Era of Moshiach to Jews?

    Here is the exact quotation from that ancient Islamic prophecy that I referred to in the opening post.

    That is for sure.......
    I am hoping that all this can fit in with a proposal for a seventy km long tunnel
    that is nine meters in width, from out in the Mediterranean Sea to somewhere in the Jordan
    Valley.

    The Petra Project could take about two hundred million cubic meters of ocean water from
    the Mediterranean to the Dead Sea annually, which could certainly boost the agricultural production of
    the nation of Jordan which would at least assist in providing a large percentage of the food for
    this proposed city.

    The invention of graphene screens means that this ocean water could be almost fully desalinated
    at a surprisingly low cost even before it runs down that proposed tunnel.

    Greening deserts is probably a good thing, but it will have minimal effect on the coming climate crisis. Virtually nothing we can do will fix this, and humankind will never agree to do anything anyway.

    The tipping point was crossed long ago and now all we can do is prepare.

    Yup..... and it seems pressure of a nature I hadn't guessed until recently..........

    Are the Saudi's worried that their oil wells are running dry?

    Why else would they do this?
