2. Yep that also slows the wind. The winds gather speed over the deserts which is why storms have increased in intensity.

3. Sounds like some woke scientists came up with that. They might have been women, or brown, or brown women.

Thanks for posting this. It’s nice to see the hopeful side of the human condition.

4. This looks like a project that would benefit the desert areas and blowing dust around the Salton Sea.
