Very moving, scaring and eye-opening documentary. Reversing desertification should be a priority of every government in the world. If every country combats the deserts within its borders, then the whole world will conquer. To those who are already doing this, I take off my hat.

Spain has plenty of sea-coast and sunlight. Put them together as *passive solar distillation* of sea-water. Then you only have to pump the distilled water inland (not cheap), and sell the resulting salt. Use the money from selling the salt to get the water to the farmers first.

I live on a farm in the Appalachian Mountains. We grow a lot of our own food and have a rainwater collection system. When the home was built in 1940, it had hundreds of acres of land. Before we bought the home, the majority of that land had been sold off over many decades. New housing developments surround us on what once was farmland and thick forests. Our land still has 5 elder oak trees among other giants. They are estimated to be around 150 years old. We have had 3 people come to our door, offering us tens of thousands of dollars for the wood from the oak trees. It is not uncommon for people to cut down and "steal" trees around here and because the wood is so valuable. We had to put cameras around our farm. Greed will be the demise of us all.

21:10 For Iceland, preventing mobility of fertile soil is key to success. Take terrace building, using crushed rock mixed with plastics, from garbage. Melt all thermoplast plastics together that melt at a relative low temperature, and use that to build terraces. Once it cools down, it will stay like forever and will need little or no maintainance for the next 100 years. Yay useful purpose for plastics. Now, with each terrace, take any rock sticking out above the terrace wall's level. Remove by either dynamite blowing, or electric jackhammer, dependant on amount. Crush the rocks that are the result into sand like grains, and spread evenly. Then get some black fertile dirt, mix in some more crushed rock, sand granularity, and fill till about 2/3 of the terrace heights, roughly 80 cm wall. Add on top black dirt, fertile sand, and plant weeds and other fast growing hard to kill bushes, and allow that to grow for 2 years, mowing and allowing to composting again. In the meantime, prepare another such a terrace. Once the two years of growth has been done, now the most of the terrace's filling will now completely be fertile, and usable for more fertility terracing. Use half of the soil from the first terrace, and mix in once again with crushed rock from the building leftovers from the second terrace. Use te mixtures after adding some fertilsers like sheep manure, leftover greens, hay, and whatnot mulch and compost. Allow for another 2 years for the soil to once again get fertility, after having planted weeds and other fast growing plants. Create a new terrace while you wait for the first two re-complete their fertility cycle. get the weeds from the topsoil of the 1st terrace, and mix that in with the new terrace and terrace no.2, again with leftover crushed rocks, sand granularity. Spread that over terrace 2 and 3. Burn the topsoil of terrace no.1 and turn that into 1/4 for tree growth, 1/4 for crop growth, and 1/2 for grass and small bushes, for replanting purposes. Now, wait for 2 years, while tending the 1st terrace, and allowing the 2nd and 3rd to fertilise. Build terrace no.4 and 5 also. Terrace 2 and 3 should get once again mixed with mulch, compost, manures, fertiliser etc, and once again mixed in with crushed rocks, sand granularity. Spread the result into 2,3,4 and 5. Grow weeds again into 2,3,4,5 for one year. Now terrace 2 can be used like terrace no.1. Do so. Terrace 3-5, mix again with soil created by crushed rock, sand granularity, add enough to get another for terrace 6 and 7, which should have been built by now. The ratio being higher, but the surface area greater, you can do the same thing, but only need one year weeds, fast growth plants. Take the top of 3 and 4 weeds and bushes, compost that for the newer terraces. Burn 3 and 4 till the weeds can make room for 1/2 trees, 1/2 food crops. The bushes and plants grown for cultivating on terrace 1 and 2 can be used for additional carbon capture, or replanted into soil that needs to keep it's soil in place, instead of being washed away. After these 8 cycles, you'll have 4 terraces being room for trees, en-situ crop growth, if temperature allows, and replantables, and by now 5 more for fertilisation expansion, repeatable for one terrace per year or exponentially available for fertility expansion. It takes time, and effort, but you can turn it into a better greener place. The only thing that takes a lot of work is the creation of the new terraces, but even that is not that much, since it only involves making a shape for the plastic/concrete to be fillied in with, and pouring the hot plastic/concrete nto the shape. You can call the mixture of plastic and pebbeled rocks plastite, a very durable building material that needs no hardening, but only cooling down, and will do so under ANY weather conditions.

Note for hotter climates, use plastics that melt at higher temperatures, ofc. Don't MAKE new plastics, collect from garbage, or better yet seperate garbages. Note that any plastics used in this way, do not require burning to diminish waste, and keep the carbon within in bound form. Don't mix in chemicals.or chemical wastes.

Note also that the same can be done in any other ergion where top soil fertilty movement causes non fertility of local soils, and can also be used for completely infertile lands. If there's a alot of rain, then allow for top-way draining, with only little at the bottom. If there's little rain, don't use bottom draining, only top-side draining, keeping the ground moist, from any nearby watersource. For extremely low precipitation, with no water sources nearby, use oceanic pipelining. The water can be desalinated, by using sunlight and a black plastic sheet cover, to get a high degree of evaporation, which can then be lead through an underground place, which is cooler than any surface temp, possibly even presurized with water vapor, forcing fast condensation, followed by subsequent depresurisation, refilling with water vapor and represuring with more water vapor, power provided by solar power. The amount of water you can get through this method may seem costly and hard to achieve, yet allowing a lot of land o go arid and infertile will cost a lot more. When planting trees for instance, you can keep more moisture in the soil by using a little more of the already present, like semi-transparant solar panels, meant for use in high temp areas. They collect like 50% of the UV light to convert to power for the water desalinisation process, and even much more than that, while still allowing plants to live underneath the panels. This may be a little more costly, but allows for both infrastructure based on electricity, as well as not needing seperated lands for power production, while also allowing for land to be made arable again. In some cases, exponential may be preffered, since some countries need fertility more than initial usage. Within 20-40 years almost any size of a country may then be created into a lush and green countryside, save the harshest of high altitude climates, or low sunlight ones.

This isn't a result of the drought it's the cause. They said it right with their own words. Peaches aren't grown without water that wasn't there, it was brought in. From where? Did that cause those areas to experience drought? Then after harvest did the peaches stay in Spain? Or exported? If exported, you just boxed up and sent a whole lot of water right out of the country. Because of the water cycle, the evaporation, rain, etc, isn't able to replenish the ground water. The more you conserve, the drier the soil becomes, and the top forms a crust and new rainfall just sheets off without being able to soak into the earth. Global trade is a horrible thing for the environment.

You can't replace the soil with grass. You have to put bigger plants and trees there. Taking the sheep and letting the grass grow isn't going to save the land.

So desertification caused by humans consuming to much water for tourism… Then proceeds to tell us because humans moved away they can’t maintain artificial means of water capture. The original problem was the cutting of forests hundreds of years ago.

@@gamingtonight1526 Trolling is an attack on someone who comments or posts about a specific subject and adds nothing about the subject, which is this case is load of fake information for weak minded people to absorb and ironically start to defend- So, how does that turd taste now that you know you are a troll?

The canal in inner mongolia is replicating already failed schemes to move water. Good Water management practices must start at the sources of water. Make sure the mountains retain as much water as possible. The mountainous areas tend to have the highest rainfall, so if erosion has set in, then the mountains will catch less water than the rivers need with obvious consequences. The lower lying lands close to the mountains should also manage their water collecting to maximise retention from rains. The immediate effects will be increase water table levels. If this process is implemented in land further away from the mountains too, then the water tables will rise across the entire region. The water tables need to be rebuilt so the land can heal. It is a process that will take time.

That's troubling when those scientists in Iceland can't figure out what to do........how about planting trees, millions and millions of trees. Put a cage around each and everyone that is within sheep grazing land.
