"Desertification is defined as the persistent degradation of land ecosystems by human activities such as unsustainable farming, mining, overgrazing, cutting down forests, and climate change.

The world's deserts are growing
Drought has been labelled “the silent killer”. Each year, an area of fertile soil the size of New Mexico or Poland is swallowed by desserts and made useless for farming. Often in areas where people are already starving. Growing deserts are threatening an area larger than the combined area of the US, India, China and Russia (40 million square kilometers).
By 2025, 1.8 billion people will experience absolute water scarcity, and 2/3 of the world will be living under water-stressed conditions.

By 2045, 135 million people could be displaced as a result of desertification.
Over 75% of the Earth's land area is already degraded, and over 90% could become degraded by 2050."

Bullshit
Oh yeah, those lying scientists trying to get money for saving Earth, animals, humans and nature. It is better if they invested in pure clean oil.

There are things more useless than trying to debate science with people who don't know science and won't make scientific arguments....

...but not many.

I agree. Those lying scientists. We should place our trust and hope in oil companies. They really care for the environment.

Desertfication occurring is old news since early late 80's and early 90's.

Erratic Climate Change is the cause of oceans rising.

Where when and how much rainfall falls ---or does not fall--  is what is harder to speculate upon, yet we see it occurring more more.

George Bush junior when first in office did not believe in global warming, then by his s2nd term he conceded global warming yet refused to acknowledge it as resultant of humans.

Republicans are based in falsehoods and evangelical { Biblical }, illogical, lack of common sense critical thinking, for the most part.

Trolls primarily Republican conservative type ex Trumpet as King of Trolling.
