The climate of the Sahara was completely different thousands of years ago. And we’re not talking about just a few years of extra rain. We’re talking about a climate that was so wet for so long that animals and humans alike made themselves at home in the middle of the Sahara. Big thanks to Fabrizio De Rossi for the reconstructions of the Sahara past and present.

In 2010, fossilized fish was uncovered 250 miles west of the Nile river, where the Sahara Desert was as arid as ever. This chance finding led scientists to believe there could’ve been sea where the Sahara is now, so they conducted a geological survey of the area. And it yielded unexpected results: they found evidence of something huge under the sands, and it wasn’t part of any sea at all.For several months, the research continued with GPS equipment on land, and later, when all the ground data was collected, scientists took a look at the area from a satellite. The view was astounding! Actually, in this area, ancient human settlements had been found previously, and now the researchers finally had the answer as to why exactly they had chosen those spots to live. By the way, did you know that whales had once been land animals that evolved into marine ones? We’ll talk about that too!#brightside

⁣Africa's Desert Problem: How to Stop the Sahara

Over 45,000 hectares have re-greened in Senegal. This has led to an increase in animal biodiversity and soil fertility.
The benefits are very positive and Klorane Botanical Foundation strongly continues its commitment.

While all deserts, including the Sahara, increase in size during the dry season and decrease during the wet season, human-caused climate change in conjunction with natural climate cycles, are causing the Sahara desert to grow more and shrink less. Since 1920, the Sahara has grown beyond its initial boundaries and gobbled up more space, growing by nearly 10 percent. The desert is advancing south into more tropical terrain, turning green vegetation dry and soil once used for farming into the barren ground. Despite the Global North being the most significant contributor to greenhouse gas emissions and global warming, it is people like those living in the Sahel who are paying the price.

Ten African countries are moving ahead with an ambitious pan-African effort to protect arable land from the encroaching Sahara —by planting trees from Senegal in the west to Djibouti in the east. Dubbed The Great Green Wall, it is an African-led movement with an ambition to grow an 8,000km NEWEST WONDER OF THE WORLD across the entire width of Africa, designed to trap the sands of the Sahara, halt the advance of the desert and restore 100 million hectares of land. It was initially intended to be just a line of trees, stretching east to west, to help push back the Sahara’s expansion down south.

Go Ape - The Fascinating World of Primates | Wildlife Documentary

Everyone loves a cheeky monkey. Primates are fun and fascinating to watch. But there is a greaterdraw – perhaps because they bring out the inner primate in us. Through Africa, South America and Asia, our wild cousins are far more diverse than you might think. Ever adaptable masters of survival, we enjoy watching their lives, but in doing so, we might learn a little bit about ourselves…Our journey begins in the heart of Africa, where a troop of Eastern Lowland gorillas welcome a new arrival. Everyone in the clan rush to greet the baby, revealing their very human instincts to work together to nurture and protect their family.While gorillas lead through gentle nurturing, they share their forest with a much more aggressivecousin, the chimpanzee. Chimps rule with an iron fist, literally beating their opponents intosubmission. Chimpanzee have another close relative, the bonobo, which looks almost exactly thesame but exhibits very different behavior. Any disruption in a chimpanzee family will lead toviolence, but bonobo’s defuse tension and avoid conflict through sex. Any age or gender can matewith any other, making these the king of the swingers.
