this is how we can reduce illegal migration in a big way:
Great Green Wall (Africa) - Wikipedia
This project has fed more than 1 million Africans. It will feed 10 millions more when completed.
But what will happen then?
On all past experience, what will happen is that they will have larger families and repeat the whole problem of over-populating their environment again and bringing about more damage to a delicate place - the problem which causes famine in the first place. That whole region has a massive rate of population growth caused by the culture of large families.
In the 1980s when Michael Buerk showed us a biblical disaster of the famine and the world rushed to save as many as we could, the population of Ethiopia was then 39.2 Million. In 2024 it was 132.059 million. The famin of the early eighties happened because there were too many people for the arid landscape to support. Now there are more than three times as many.
Starvation in the Sahel is not about modern climate change. It is about aid leading to greater and greater population. You'd be better pushing limitation of family size rather than planting trees.
And by the way - the idea that co2 emissions are causing the Sahara is a complete LIE!!!
The Sahara has existed in its current form give or take, for twenty thousand years. The video even explained it near the start, but quickly slid into the misanthropy of blaming the rest of us for it.
Increasing desertification is caused by people over using the land, through over grazing and cutting down wood.
ALL an African problem caused by the AFRICAN POPULATION EXPLOSION.
Do-gooderism by NGOs - professional do-gooders, will only make it worse, and why is it that Africans are always portrayed as needing OUR HELP? That is an insult to Africans in my book.
