I recently watched a video of a project they are doing in Kenya to bring the land back into green beautiful fields from what was once dry dessert just like in the land in this video. They are digging 5 foot wide half circles in very large areas in a certain position to where rain comes down natural slopes. The half circles are about two feet deep and allow the water to be absorbed slowly instead of running off. And it’s working very well!!!! Slowly turning what was once desert into land good for agriculture and fields for wild animals and even trees beginning to grow.
Such water reservoires are called swales. Geoff Lawton’s Greening the Desert project in Jordan has shared tonnes of information about what humans can do directly in such areas. And of course, what we all do collectively makes a huge difference.

Did you know that 37 countries "cloud seed" their skies? US govt has been cloud seeding since the 1940's to create storms and to grow storms & hurricanes. "Climate change" means many govts are not cloud seeding to create droughts intentionally. This is happening all over the world. Without rain you stop the farms from growing food. If a govt stops food from growing they can easily control citizens. This is their goal to create a intentional food shortage. They are now shifting their cloud seeding storm making to Africa and parts of Asia to grow food in these regions. This is a massive project (👀 vds on this). 👀 = Geo Engineering watch. This is where you will learn how e^il the rules of this world are. They are the ones creating the droughts and massive flooding storms. Weather making technology is extremely advanced and most citizens have no clue that this is going on. YOU MUST research to learn how E^il these govts really are and how they are destroying lives. With a drought they force citizens to move to other parts of the country or out of the country. It's all planned out. For these citizens they need to shift to Sea water desalination stations or buy their own small sea water desalination machine to produce water so they can stay in this region. Remember without drinking water, humans, pets, vegetation, wild animals die. These govts and their puppets masters are cruel.
Overgrazing, deforestation, poor land management and no reforestation, and this is the result. Earth baked hard, perfect for flash floods, eroding even further. Surprised?

This is us in Texas. Our droughts have been getting worse and worse. October is supposed to be the 2nd rainiest month in the year, and we've had 0 days of rain. We've only had 3-4 days that had sprinkles in them since April, and we routinely have 100 days over 100 degrees
Vote for Trump then I bet he'll force God to make it rain. Or maybe the droughts are due to the climate change we've been telling yokels like you about for 20 years

Then Sicilians should start to apply the same new planting procedures as they do in African states like Nigeria, digging half-moon shaped bunds at the bottom of slopes, planting drought tolerant species of plants in them, and using non-toxic waste water to water in these plants until well established. The presence of greenery has encouraged clouds to condense over the land and rain to fall more frequently. But the difference between the peoples of Africa doing this and the peoples of Europe is that the land is more of a community affair in Africa, shared, cared for together, restored together so everyone can benefit. In Europe, the land belongs to someone (or worse, to a corporation), and though s/he might appreciate other people coming in to help, this will likely be a voluntary need, and the landowner won't be able to afford to share in the profits made from restoration afterwards. We're too business minded in Europe, and with costs going up and taxes falling harder on us all, few have the personal wealth to be able to volunteer. We have badically made land other people's property and business - which is fine when agriculture works. But it doesn't. It scalps the land for the most part, kicks up CO2 and methane to further pollute the atmosphere and worsen these conditions. We need landowners to devote more of their land for proper restoration, and the governments of affected countries to pay the necessary workforce needed. You wouldn't even have to devote that land to purely native species. There are plenty of fruit plants that can be planted in these bunds that would help provide a little money year after year, if farmers can be bothered to harvest it (or donate the fruit to those who helped plant the bunds in the first place as their 'shared interest.' But to stand around moping over dried up fields isnot helping. This desertification will worsen as it spteads, more doil microbes dying. They have to nip this problem in the bud while they can still do so, while they still have soil and not eroded land down to bedrock.
Desertification is happening for two reasons: 1. Less frequent winter rainfall (that the island relies on) & 2. Over-tourism using too much water _BOTH have very simple solutions (creating bunds to slow the flow of water to allow more absorption into the soil, planting more suitable trees and crops and reducing tourism numbers)._ _Which the local government and people seem unwilling to undertake. They seem to be waiting for 'someone else' to solve the problem._
Basically, in Europe we have a class system that places us at the bottom of a colonialist empire while the feudal Lords who reign over our lands suck the marrow our bones and life our lands.

Wait.....2 days ago they claimed they were facing drought. And 2 hours ago they got hit with massive flooding? Perhaps too many folks praying for water out there....and someone actually heard them.
They need to start putting in check dams now, ready for when the rain comes. Check dams, ponds, pools, terrace the hillsides, have it ready for when the rain comes. And seed the ground with clover seeds so the moment the rain comes they can sprout. Start breaking up the baked hard top soil and mixing in compost as fast as it can be produced, everything you can to have the ground ready to act as a sponge.
An efficient means of desalinating sea water may be by the use of heat pumps that simultaneously boil and evaporate the sea water, and via heat pipes freeze sea water in another area into blocks of pure water ice, which when allowed to thaw naturally in ponds, may be a most efficient means of desalination utilizing a two-step process and heat pumps.
You take people and animals out of the land...the land suffers... This is true for nearly all of Europe.

It's so easy to look up data for Sicily, and show rainfall has increased. The trend has increased from 402mm in 1979 to 519mm in 2023 (mean annual precipitation ERA5 ECMWF). So it has increased by more than ¼. Drought is a perfectly normal aspect of Sicily's Mediterranean climate. The main problem is water loss through poor infrastructure maintenance. No doubt this is exasperated by endemic corruption on the island. The people on Sicily are suffering not from a lack of rainfall, but a lack of good governance. This ITV news item insults its viewers intelligence.

So there were ruins under the water ? So that means that this has happened before ! So it is not about climate change, It is about climate patterns.
I did wonder why they hadn’t used the water in the full reservoir a bit more carefully…
Yeah, the ruins are from a time when there were 500k.people not 5m.
the valley wasn't used as an artificial reservoir in the middle ages, obviously.
Sounds more like the Mohave Desert.
It’s an island 🏝️ it’s surrounded by water 😮
Georgia needs to sort this and help her people ASAP. This shouldn’t be happening in this day and age of technological advancements.
Take the water from the flooding in the north
"You never worry about water until the well runs dry". I, too, live on an Island with a Mediterranean climate. We, too, have the same problems. Too many people and not enough water. Get used to it.
way to bend over 😂
demand it be fixed with the taxes you payed to have it work in the first place. ..get used to it...never heard something so weak. stand up for yourself and your kin ffs.
@@luminousfractal420 Fairy tale thinking. Scream all you want, the climate is changing.
Sounds like a need for desalination equipment
My country is probably responsible for this with our HAARP facility.
Sounds like how Floridians act.
£108.00 a DAY!! From England.
A different kind of "THIRST TRAP"
Its not our problem.
It will be. Have you seen the price of orange juice recently.
Abrupt cc will affect everyone
Reverse osmosis is the answer thats how your neighbour Malta has its water supply .That and aquadots that your ancient ancestors used
Reverse osmosis is the way forward. They have see on all sides. Make pipeline.
Fun fact Sicily will be declared a desert by 2030. Inevitable
Opinions and predictions are not facts.
find a solution to get water from sea
Well it's wetter than ever where I live. So that's 'global warming ' as well I suppose?
Respectfully this region requires repentance from Mafia violence. Then bring in water well drilling rigs and go down 60 ft in a series of connecting radiuses about 5 mile apart. You fill find your water is there but deep down inside like God’s heart ♥️
150€ per week? 😳🔥😱
A decade ago Australia went through one of our worst droughts, experts said because of global warming our dams would never fill again, we built 3 desalination plants, no sooner were they finished we had floods & all dams went back to full & are still full now 🤷♂️
What a horror, and, to think, North American indigenous peoples haven't had running water for centuries.🙄
Havent had? So maybe thats why they have almost vanished or was it
bcos most of them were @illed with blankets infested with smallpox.
At that time world population was well below 1 billion. With a stable climate since 10.000 years.
One pixel of a picture is not enough.....
No, they had Running Bear instead! jajajaj
we want water... just go to sea...
Its just bounced it down for 1 day ❤
There isn't a water shortage, there is a people overage.
But Italy’s population isn’t replacing itself.
@@maestoso47 So? You think you can just keep growing the population in perpetuity? That's called a Ponzi scheme.
Anyone heard of desalination 🧐
"worst in twenty years", more like cyclical..
Weather warfare! Haarp! It's worldwide
Worldwide. Geoengineering
desalinate sea water

As soon as i heard the phrase Climate Change i stopped watching.
Global warming? What happened to climate change and science says our planet is cooling for 345 million years. Magnetic field break up while shifting could be a more accurate description.
😢🙏

Greedy farmers have ruined it all.
them and boris lowering tje food and agriculture standards to usa level. uks going to be diabetic in a few years.
6x more sugar in your bread and the salt to tame it...and nobody sees it.
i do because im a welshman who moved to the usa and went borderline diabetic in only a few years eating my regular diet.
all to feed the private health scam. which virtually nobody in the uk can afford.
rich pay cash, private offers the same as the nhs exactly..only it costs 15% of your wages.

More one euro vacant mansions.
Apply permaculture concepts.
The Sahara is green this year. Is the desert zone moving from Africa to Europe?
