@CriminalonCrime Месяц назад

It's a great idea, I myself have a plan similar in nature, you see, we have all this forestland here in America, we should just plant fruits and vegetables everywhere in the land, if we don't eat it all, the animals will and animals don't digest some of the seeds, so they're like mini fertilizing bots spreading the seed wherever they go, we could plant enough food to feed this entire country for 150 years with minimal maintenance. Just plant seeds wherever the F we go! Imagine, you lose it all you're homeless, all hope is lost, you go out into the forest to just you know... and bam! There's more food than you know what to do with!

@briankupfer4929 2 месяца назад

One of the biggest benefits to swales is that you dont have to plant in them, seeds will naturally stay in the low points. If you use rocks as well it just amps up the speed of the process, because the rocks catch seeds much better than simple low areas. The moisture retention is one part of it, but the larger part is giving plants a chance to get a foothold. Once they take hold they start to create mulch and spread out, solidifying the soil and retaking desert. There is a difference between mulch and compost. Please stop commenting because you didn't understand the difference.

@arvont1 2 месяца назад

It also raises the water table and keeps water on the land to sink in instead of running off. Because trees love water and will drink as much as they can get, trees and swales work perfectly together. Trees also help raise the water table by storing hundreds to thousands of gallons od water in their root systems. Swales can save the world!

The idea for the Great Green Wall of Africa was first proposed by former President Olusegun Obasanjo of Nigeria in 2005. This initiative aims to combat desertification in the Sahel region by creating a mosaic of green and productive landscapes across the width of Africa. The African Union (AU) endorsed the project in 2007, and it has since gained support from various international organizations and countries. The Great Green Wall is intended to span 8,000 kilometers across the continent, from Senegal in the west to Djibouti in the east.

@MarizamAbdullah-mq8id Месяц назад

Yes, I absolutely agree with their initiative & community effort to reclaim barren ground. I bought a piece of hilly land in the tropic & create shallow depression. It is not only for extending the moisture seeping time but the wind also transfer dry leaves to be collected in the depression. Birds & insects also bring in seeds into the depression. So I don't plant anything but only selected the species I prefer to grow in the depression.In fact I removed many & keep the healthiest one. Now I can cut teak, mahogany, yellow flower acacia/eucalyptus which I don't plant but only make the choice which one to keep for sustainable supply of excellent timber, firewood & free range poultry & goats.

@@Watthead80 They're just restoring the areas that were destroyed by overgrazing + the Sahara's expansion. And also preventing the desert from continuing to expand. They're not doing this to the whole desert, just a small strip across the continent.

@mkjohnson7826 Месяц назад

CO2 is still listed as just 0.04 percent of our atmosphere. Ohhhhh….scary. Just remember boys and girls….if that number goes down to 0.02 percent….nothing will grow. The whole Carbon scare is a HOAX! Stop buying into it and do your own research. Electric vehicles are also a HOAX. They still have to burn coal to produce the electricity to make your little pos run.

Don't forget to use your livestock as fertilisers as well. Animals like cow's or goat's, treat them like prey and keep them moving in one area, so that their feces are trampled into the dirt and after about a month move them too another area and till the previous one while you are moving the herd to that area. Let it rest for a week and scatter grass seeds or any kind of plant seeds

@victoriakiteley8337 Месяц назад

@@ecenker no you don't let them eat what you are planting, you use them before you plant. It's fertilising the ground, replacing the nutrients with the manure from the livestock.

Rain water is then attracted to the cooler ground and it gets watered. Alternatively killing the soil warms it up and deters rain clouds from dropping rain. pretty cool! 👍
