Okay! We have 190 votes as of 12:50 pm and it's looking like a 90:10 split in favor of no, so let's just take that as a data point; it seems the people who follow me don't really know what this thing is - that's okay! Let's talk.
The Great Green Wall is a project that's been a dream since the 1970s for Africans, but really only came to fruition in 2007. The idea is to stop desertification in the Sahel region of Africa by building a giant barrier of trees and other vegetation from the west to east coasts.
