>>The plan: to plant a “wall” of trees spanning the entire width of Africa — 4,350 miles long and 10 miles wide — to fight desertification in the Sahel, the arid region to the south of the Sahara desert.

At least they are paying their unproductive poor to do something. We pay ours to do drugs and crap on the doorsteps.
BINGO!
