Dutch scientists close to breakthrough that would allow crops to grow in DESERTS!

[Gilgamesh]

This is a win-win for everybody. Poor countries in arid areas would benefit from increased food domestic production

and Europe will avoid having hundreds of millions of climate refugees knocking at their door in the coming

decades as parts of the world gets more arid!

I seen this earlier today, very nice breakthrough if they accomplish it

 

[MadNomad]

If this pans out Europe has saved itself from a catastrophic refugee crisis. Half the third world would have been coming their way in the future the way things were looking.

Bravo

Although ironically they did create this climate change issue to begin with.

There's a reason why Europeans have been the undisputed leaders of the world since Columbus sailed

the ocean blue. You need to have this kind of foresight to dominate for so long.

Last time these gaalo had a break through like this was when they created genetically modified foods and look how that turned out.

I don’t trust them as far as I can throw them, I don’t know much but I know one thing for sure and that’s I don’t trust them may Allah guard us from their fitna.

China has been developing this for a while and have already implemented it on their own deserts.

 

[Prince Abubu]

Didn't Israel already do this?

The dutch, produce the most tomatoes in Europe. But they're tasteless and lack flavor.
Although for the poor it's better the tasteless crops than nothing at all.

Most of the refugees from Africa do not come from the Sahel. They are mostly Nigerians and Congolese from the tropical areas.

 

[Prince Abubu]

Actually, most migrants come from Somalia, Sudan and Eritrea.

The ones who enter via Morocco and Spain are mostly Tropical West Africans.

Large segment of the African migrants come from the tropical lush areas. This type of technology won't end migration.

Soil erosion is super annoying.

Charcoal industry burned us.

Trust me, even if African countries become 1st world countries, they’re still gonna want to come to Europe

Doubtful, Gulf Arabs almost never migrate to Europe because they have enough money. Likewise for Singaporeans, Taiwanese, South Koreans, Japanese etc.

True but South Koreans/Taiwanese and Chinese still have a high migration rate to Canada and the US. It always looks better on the other side

China is still poor and the government is oppressive.

But South Koreans only started to become rich around the 90s, quite late.. and there's probably some effect from chain migration (migration through relatives).

Not nearly as many, it's a question of numbers.

Lol exactly. These guys think it's the poor that migrates. The migration journey is expensive and costs between 5,000-10,000 dollars. No poor man can afford the kind of money. Most of them had a reasonable life.

Genetically engineering crops? No thanks.
