So.....I was reading this in my Weekly Reader 60 years ago and have seen many books/mags showing cave paintings of lush greenery and critters in the Sahara caves in later life...some more recent art showed greenery in what is not desert as late as the Phoenician, Greek and even Roman eras.
I was taught the ever rising Himalayas is what changed the weather patterns to cause both the Sahara and Gobi Deserts.
Bu they also taught me life began at conception and there were only two genders.
