Unfortunately, so far the Great Green Wall is a failure, “a cautionary tale of poorly planned projects, lacking in local participation and entangled in a labyrinth of opaque financing.” Must learn from & do better. #climateaction #climatemvt #greatgreenwall

The green zone and the desert landscape in the Kubuqi Desert, in China's northern Inner Mongolia region.
[5/6] Les experts alertent sur les effets pervers du reboisement excessif. Certaines espèces non indigènes, comme les pins ou peupliers, consomment trop d’eau et accentuent l’épuisement des nappes phréatiques. Le désert, rappellent-ils, a aussi ses fonctions écologiques. #geography #GreatGreenWall
Between 2016 and 2050, the state aims to plant another 70 million hectares, an area the size of continental France.
[3/6] La région du désert de Kubuqi illustre ces tensions. Si la végétation progresse, de nombreux éleveurs, comme Dorj, dénoncent leur confinement sur de petites parcelles et la perte d’un équilibre écologique millénaire fondé sur le pâturage extensif. #geography #desertification #GreatGreenWall

[2/6] En Mongolie-Intérieure, la libre transhumance a été interdite au profit du reboisement. Des millions d’arbres et de plantes résistantes à la sécheresse ont été semés, créant emplois et terres agricoles mais limitant les pratiques nomades ancestrales. #geography #GreatGreenWall #China

China's Great Green Wall has greened over 90 million ha and aims to add 70 million ha; a 2015 UN study says it created thousands of jobs, while herders are confined to grazing. getnews.me/chinas-great-green-wall-... #greatgreenwall #innermongolia
