"a wall of forest is being planned to stop the desertification of southern Africa". Very interesting, no kidding. Who is planning that?
The last successful country in such endeavour is Kazakhstan. And to certain extent - China. Making 'wall of forest' is a programme with planning horizon of more than 50 years. I'd like to know the name of stakeholders.
