Can Africa's Great Green Wall Stop Its Deserts From Spreading

[@gwhite7136]

This didn't tell us much. No numbers on how the project is doing. What is working so far and what isn't.

[@emtronea1]

We got bamboozled 😂

[@Krobra91]

i suggest looking up other documentaries on this they go into detail. There are few of these projects that take 4 years to grow, that create food farms in the process for local villages, others that plan native trees that act as shades and growth zones so other plants can be planted. They are mostly using old civilization forgotten techniques like building half moons at an incline to collect and store ground water and replenish underground aquafers. etc. theres alot of work happening

[@gwhite7136]

@@Krobra91 Kinda of like what they are doing in Saudi? I saw they have round farms at the edg of the desert as well as near the ocean. Greening project for the 100 mile Wall city but surrounding it. It's great stuff. The half moons as well as the larger round farms..

They don't even mention the Great Green Wall until 2/3 of the way through. It's like a documentary about the Brooklyn Bridge that spends the first half explaining what gravity is.

😂

[@MaxSnowDude]

it mentions the great green wall at 0:57

[@bipedalprimate]

It asks "what is the great green wall?" and then spends 6 minutes resolutely avoiding answering that question.

[@pongop]

lol. well said, fellow primate.

[@andreastyrberg7556]

This may be the worst video on the great green wall I have seen. It said next to nothing on a now rather old project and nothing about how it is going.

[@stickynorth]

One of the most important projects in our lifetime. To think that the Sahara was once a vast, fertile agriculture zone prior to desertification is astounding. I hope it succeeds!

3:28min Picture of the Sonora desert! never knew this is in Africa!

[@hebierob]

Disappointed! No real information about the green wall until the end. D-

[@tkmettsky-hw4uj]

I hope this great green wall was successful

Very Nice

It would be nice to add Giant Red Wood Trees in Africa.

They should tap China's help. China's expert on this matter.

People must first leave Abrahamic religion and think of their ancestors who survived this vast landscape with full of greenery. People must dedicate to achieve this goal asap for their future generation without going for any kind of war. Concentrating the goal

"...that spreads across 20 states..." Dear gawd. How to say you're American without saying you're American. Africa is a continent and those are COUNTRIES.

I wonder how this youtuber excluded the three east African countries (Ethiopia, Djibouti and Eretria ) among the UN targeted list of 11 Sahel regions where the GGW projects have been initiated and started operation since 2015???

[@Daara92]

Political integration should precede economic integration, hence why regional economic has failed to reduce poverty and intra Africa trade is still low, there must be single passport and quality infrastructure for free movement of persons and goods

[@iskindersam7834]

It's just called the Sahara. Not Sahara desert. (sahara means desert)

[@yassasloan7308]

The A.I. narrator says just Sahara 99.999 % of the time... And besides, it's not called the Sahara... It's called as-Sahra... Study before you go round critiquing because you will continue to look stupid...

[@TheGrindcorps]

No, it can’t!

[@mandandi]

Nice. But most of the wars in Africa are primarily due to interference of external forces like the West. Evidence of this is now available. Most people don't kill each other because they don't have land for grazing their animals or plant crops. Yes, back in the 1800s, the wars were for expanding local influence.

[@DocButler]

It's almost a video about nothing. I love the concept, but this has no practical or detailed content.

[@easypeasy8690]

there is no western sahara it's Morocco

[@Oenloveslife]

Why did you show Saguaros? 60% garbage.

Pitiful juvenile video with a horrible script that tells us little!

[@azraellucifer5589]

there's no country called Western Sahara btw ! there's Morocco and it includes what's called Western sahara ! you can check that out simply by searching few cities from there such as Dakhla !! or you can fly there to get a stamp on your passport saying Kingdom of Morocco . fix the goddamn map next time

[@CIutchX]

Morocco illegally annexed most of that part

[@azraellucifer5589]

@@CIutchX illegally ? are you sure about that ?? i'm not here to prove that a part of my country belongs to me btw . so just stfu and go school urself a little bit more . if you as german accepted to lose ur land to russia & france . me as moroccan i don't and i won't . p.s your country Germany is beggin my country to invest in what you calling western sahara and that my country annexed it illegaly so your country is an accomplice?
