Crazy sanddune project to stop desertification

Went to Pecha Kucha in Oslo and Magnus Larsson presented his Dune project. He proposes to build a "green wall" longer than the great wall of China across whole Africa to stop desertification.

It looks great, its innovative, (apparently) evironmentally friendly and not too expensive.

Now theres thinking outside the box!
