  • Saudi Arabia is tackling desertification with a dual approach: investing in green technologies and implementing innovative, on-the-ground solutions. Scientists are converting carbon into methane to purify wastewater for agriculture and utilizing chicken manure compost to enrich desert soil.

Saudi Arabia is actively transforming its vast desert landscapes into vibrant, green spaces through ambitious projects like The Line and the Green Riyadh initiative. These efforts are part of a broader strategy to diversify the economy away from oil dependency, enhance urban living conditions, and combat climate change. The Green Riyadh project aims to plant 7.5 million trees, significantly increasing the city's green coverage to improve air quality, reduce temperatures, and promote biodiversity. Similarly, The Line, a futuristic city project, focuses on sustainability with plans for zero cars, zero streets, and zero carbon emissions, utilizing renewable energy sources. These initiatives not only aim to make Saudi Arabia a hub for tourism and investment but also to foster a sustainable environment in one of the world's harshest climates.
