When most of us think of the Middle East and Saudi Arabia, we think of scorching sun, endless ocean of sand dunes, and one of the inhospitable climates on Earth, that wasn’t the case in the not-so-distant past. About 10000 years ago and before it was a place of rolling grasslands, forests, and jungles watered by torrential monsoon rains just like in tropical southeast Asia. Thanks to huge water resources deep beneath, Saudi Arabia could be able to transform desert into farmlands.
Interesting stuff I found for myself:

Nevertheless, the Saudi government introduced desalinated water into every home through a giant national water network that reached even rural and remote areas at nominal operating prices, which helped the population to dispense with and provide groundwater.
But groundwater is cleaner and more nutrients

Although it is safe for health, we do not use it for drinking and preparing food, but for other uses
@@you_ss7f so what do use for drinking water
For every liter of fresh water, 1.5 liter of toxic brine is created, discharged back into the ocean. Unfortunately there is a dark flip-side to desalination.

Long term pumping water from underground in a desert is catastrophic for the environment
it might get replenished from sea water seeping in underground and being filtered by the earth. losing its salt.
For the people who don't know, one side of Saudi Arabia gets snow every year the other side is really like a forest with green mountains and gets rain regularly, the red sea side is filled with chains of mountains, and only the middle is where the fair golden sand is but even that part gets rain for few days/weeks and it's rewlly heavy rain that flows like rivers in the middle of the deset.
It's oftne known that the middle-east was forests and river before and infact it will be like that again but naturally, not by man. The more I see the climate changes the more I am sure I might live to see the beginning of the end lol.
Your country has a unique geography indeed
Climate always change. Humanity has negligible impact on it
so dam up the wadis and save that flood water.
excuse me, but countries with desertifcation are re-greening thier land and it's by human means. After all, Adam was a gardener, wasn't he? it's what most humans are created to do. manage the garden ie the earth and including replanting things.

Exactly the 1st thing that came to mind. We’re not expecting the signs of the hour, we’re watching them intensify before our very eyes.
I saw this video in recommendations and I was reminded of the prophecy. I came here just to see whether anyone else is reminded too. SubhanAllah we r nearing the day of qiyamah.
Brothers and Sisters - let’s make a collective effort to protect ourselves by remembering to read the first or last 10 verses from Surah Kahf every Friday.
Center pivot irrigation isnt effective for water management, it is effective in the sense that it does not require a lot of work from the owner. Drip irrigation is _much_ more effective to preserve water. But in both cases, draining the aquafier is an unsustainable strategy, and people on the US west coast are currently experiencing it.
Correct! Even the Netherlands with plenty of water, use rockwool combined with drip system to exactly control nutrients and the water need of the plants, with it reducing the water use to less than 10% of what was previously used.
@Nashtark 111 how do you know it's Mineralised? Also do plants not absorb them?
For those folks that have never visited the Pacific Northwest, let me say this, you should and come between November and February. Why, because anything that will hold winter rains is full and on the move to the ocean. It boggles my mind that politicos cannot grasp the fact that billions of gallons of water flow in the ditches of the I5 highway into a river and out to the ocean very winter. Anyone with a little ambition and not even a big budget could redirect that water to where it’s needed. Instead nothing happens and people moan and fret over no water. Take a page from Bryan Slats book, and figure it out. The I5 highway starts at the Canadian border and goes south to Mexico
@@islandgardener158 You are over simplifying it. Diverting this water would have serious ecological impacts, it is not like you can gather it right before it touches the beach, it would have to be much higher up. And by doing so, it would mess up the ecosystem downstream. It is very naive to think that you can divert a huge amount of water without impacts.
Agreed, we introduced drip irrigation in Saudi arabia 35 years ago to compete with CP in terms of water conservation.
I keep on asking myself what i would have done in this world without you. Thank you so much for the help.

Very interesting effort to plant trees in the sand and receive rain as a result. Here in SriLanka it is greenary always but still we used to plant trees either side of roads as well.
Sri Lanka has rain, Saudi Arabia lacks rain. But nonetheless you're right. Mountainy places in the future might get a lot of precipitation. Vegetation increases humidity, and in terms increases precipitation.

There are many food crops that can grow well in the Arabian peninsula. One example is tomatoes, it can withstand hot climates. Other plants are sorghum, cotton (cotton used to be grown in Bahrain 1000 years ago), millet, flax and sisal and many more. I would say build more dams to use and control the rainwater on the western slopes of the mountains and some of this water can be used to recharge the underground aquifers. With science and technology you can do wonders in Saudi Arabia and the rest of the peninsula.
Great. Arabs will prosper even after oil

And terribly destructive farming methods. We have learned nothing. The "dirty thirties" mistakes are made now on a scale larger by orders of magnitude.

Really enjoyed this as a professional Hydrologist 😃
As far as i know and learned at my studies in the university, Dessertification isnt drycut a problem of overgrazing. Cutting down trees is a problem however there is strong discussion leaning towards that herding animals over these water poor lands, helps create a healthy soil, and therefore grasslands. Grasslands in it self further binds the soil and prevents the soild degradation to continue.
By God,It is mentioned in Hadith
that The Arab land will again become green
The word Again is referring to that Arabia was once an Fertile land

Not sure why you focus on Nuclear when Saudi Arabia is so well suited to solar. Agrivoltaics should be of particular interest in that region. Using the solar panels to shade the land and reduce water use for agriculture. I am not against nuclear per se, but solar (agrivoltaics in particular) appears to be clear winner in this case.
Solar is not efficient nor reliable. When reach above the 30% energy from solar things start to be muddy. Most countries have more than 30% are struggling.
Our future will be energy from multiple sources, both renewables and fossil fuels.
Correct me if I am wrong but won't setting up solar panels in a desert require more water to clean the panels of all the accumulated sand?
@@user_ascii no .. sand generally doesn't stick to solar plates..they can just be dusted off..
And the dusting Also won't be required on a daily basis

Saudi already runs the largest desalination plant, is creating a very interesting city/township, is working on solar desalination and now this! Saudi should try micro drip irrigation..that would save even more water. Great!
With a lot of oil for a lot of energy Saudi can afford desal for now. As fields decline, they have to try passive desal. It will be interesting if the northern Saudi dome desal project to come on line this year actually works.
I remember hearing about this few years ago, this is amazing to rewatch and refresh! Nice video, glad I was subbed! I'd personally suggest to think about, what if they don't just build crops, so that water cycle can also be restored and more oasis zones are created?
No crops = no food for the world. Also these oasis/aquifer zones can take hundreds to thousands of years to form. Best we can do I reduce water usage
@@rodrigogonzalez3789 yes, of course. But I think it's important to improve water management in all its escales (^^) also, geographic characteristics and others affect this issue... challenging but interesting
They're not doing it for the US; they're using our resources and when they run the aquafer dry, they'll move on. Sort of like giving the finger to the US.
these visualizations are 🔥🔥🔥. I'm subbed!
Deep in the deserts of Saudi Arabia, a team led by Oxford University has made a startling discovery: a giant, 325,000-year-old tusk belonging to an extinct species of elephant, remarkably preserved and embedded by an ancient lake.
Proof that there is no God. It’s the nature and no creator.
They also need to balance the water shortage due to pumping inside internal water ways.
Your videos are so interesting. It seems like desert countries are fighting a losing battle farming where there is no water
Brilliant article; money, trees, great circular irrigation ( no water waste) inspiring. Thanks from New Zealand.
Actually with pivot irrigation there's a spray of water from above the crops, so there's plenty of blow off when there's a warm breeze. Drip irrigation or sprayers low between rows captures far more water. Up to 80% losses
Your video was very detailed, very informative and organized with facts needed to be presented at that point, Good Work
Saudi Arabia is drilling for a resource possibly more precious than oil.
The green fields that dot the desert draw on water that in part was trapped during the last Ice Age.
Saudi Arabia reaches these underground rivers and lakes by drilling through the desert floor, directly irrigating the fields with a circular sprinkler system. This technique is called center-pivot irrigation. 2:48 [NASA Scientific Visualization Studio]

While travelling over gulf countries on the way from USA, I took several pictures of these circles. I thought they were probably oil wells back then.
Center pivot technology is used all around the world to produce a variety of crops. Current technology allows farmers to control their pivot's operation with a smartphone, tablet, or computer.
Each center pivot irrigation system rotates around a pivot point, most commonly located in the center of a field. Pivot irrigation is often viewed as a sustainable solution for growers that work with different crops. Center pivot irrigation systems are among the most water-efficient ways to irrigate crops, with anywhere from 85 to 98% water use efficiency. The main disadvantage is the relatively high cost of acquisition of a center pivot irrigation system. 1:23 [AGRIVI; Alabama Cooperative Extension; Groundwater Foundation]
I saw these dark circles from the airplane a few times and always wondered what they were. It Probably must have been at a season with no crops being cultivated but it always amazed me.
Great content
Interesting perspective. Good presentation.
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said :
“The Hour (day of judgement) will not begin until the land of the Arabs once again becomes meadows and rivers.”

Oh thanks for telling us about these, i was wondering what the hell those circles are.
Saudi Arabia is smart. If all countries did this, instead of spending on weapons, tanks, guns, rockets, bioweapons, etc, this world would be a better place. It just needs the will to do it!
Also trees attract or create rainfall through photosynthesis, and respiration, so they can aid in changing the climate in their favor. All power to Saudi Arabia! Well done!
Its not smart, its a short term solution. It will backfire heavily

Have you some more infos about how the crops/fruits etc. be farmed when they ready?
I live in Indiana, U.S., in the middle of farm country. We know that 20-25 days after the farmers start watering their fields, we will run out of water at our house. Maybe that is just here since there is no way of accurately mapping underground water.
the usa is over farmed at least for field crops and irrigation. Need permaculture and more trees and bushes, perennials, that need little or no watering by humans. Just rain.
More trees will bring more rain but it’s desert soil that holds less water….ambitious but good as science progresses in future maybe there will be solution for this too…..good job KSA 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Yes brother more trees will bring more rain. But their reason transforming only for commercial (chinese mentality )may be fail this mission in future.
That’s why you don’t start in the middle of a desert to try and jump start greening. You start where there’s already arable land and expand the edges of that land into the deeper desert. Along the way you’re turning unproductive sand into healthier soil
Good point
There are trees in places because there is rain in that place, not the other way around.
@@Dionisio_Aragao it’s mostly like greenhouse there are filling up land with arable soil

Amazing - got to admire this!
That was really fascinating. Granted, it will be a long time before Saudi Arabia runs out of oil. But if they would invest in this idea, they could change the usefulness of their land for future generations to come. They could use the immense fortune coming out of the ground in oil and perfect this technology that could then be used by countries around the world to make their less than desirable lands to be more productive. Great show! Thanks!
And if they invested in solar and wind they could be feeding a lot of the world needs for electricity all by themselves! And they could grow the crops under the solar panels with less water loss! All of the dessert areas could do this
I believe they are already diversifying their investments to get a head start on becoming less dependant on oil.
They are draining their aquifers and when those dry up, all that agricultural land will revert to desert
@@terry2346 we have whole cities with clean energy by the way. People develope things based on the idea of being sustainable when we sell our last oil barrel.

Interesting irrigation concept. There is an ancient dam and retention lake/settling pond at the base of Jebel Al Lawz in north west Arabia. It has about a dozen hand dug wells along the shore rim that filtered the collected mountain runoff water for potable uses. On the other side of the mountain there is also a giant 3 story tall rock split down the middle by geiser water jets forcing up from the aquifer. There is good HD drone video over @Discovered Media on youtube.

how about a wall of hemp plants that can advance into the deserts followed by the savanna
I wonder if this could be used in the arid Southwest US (Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, etc.). Many of the Native American tribes are suffering from water shortages. Some of it is due to natural forces and some due to political forces (connected forces get first pick of the resources).
See vids on "Edge of Nowhere" channel and in Savory Institute vids. Also on 25,000 acres in central Mexico by Alejandro Carillo
They been doing it for decades
Worked in Al Jawf agricultural development company for two years. The underground water resources has been greatly depleted. They have discontinued crops that requires a lot of water.
Kiamat semakin hampir. Seperti yg pernah dinyatakan Nabi.
it is intersting that the UK is covering much of it's best fertile farmland into solar farms, where the sunlight is "poor" for much of the year, particularly in winter when power demand is highest.
Yet, here, Saudi Arabia, where sun is strongest all year around, they are turning solar into food directly.

What happens when that water runs out? Maybe if they planted trees on the edges of those circles, it might change the weather and produce some rain.
They are planting If I am not wrong - 10 billion trees.
@@CuriousReasonThat`s great.
Trees don't "produce some rain", in fact they don't produce any rain. Rain producing clouds are formed over warm ocean waters, that's it.
@@AG-ig8uf Are you sure about that? The trees I mean. Obviously clouds form over water but I believe trees give off moisture also.
@@altond511 Trees give of moisture, just like you and I do. But rain producing clouds form ONLY over warm ocean waters. Even cold ocean waters don't generate enough evaporation for rain producing clouds, that's why shores next to cold ocean streams usually pretty arid. Lakes, rivers, even large inner seas like Black Sea, don't have sufficient evaporation to produce any significant rain elsewhere. No offense, but what country education system is failing you so badly ? (not trying to insult)

Here we go
Right.. It's in Hadith
🔥🔥🔥
I agree with that
I have an idea for easier desalination using solar energy: Build a large structure over the water at the coast, preferably in a place which has tides. It should be mostly clear, so sunlight can reach the water surface. It needs to have walls, but only above the surface. The bigger the area, the more slanted the walls you could have, to mitigate wind load. Presumably towers would keep the roof up, so if these extend through the roof then wind turbines can sit on top of those, generating electricity.
Tide replenishes water so it does not become too salty (which is a problem with desalination plants). Basically, large area instead of focusing sunlight.
Alternatively, concentrated solar desalination plant, where brine is collected and used to extract lithium and other elements we need rather than releasing it back as toxic sludge would be a nice touch. Its a quite sad that we use large amounts of land for salt production (with negative environmental impacts), mine brine inland to extract lithium (with negative environmental impacts) and simultaneously release brine as toxic sludge from desalination (with negative environmental impacts), when all of this could be done in a 1 stop shop. Remarkably short sighted.
Similarly, it's depressing to see CO2, which is a REALLY useful chemical, being treated as waste in large industrial processes. Holistic approach, anyone? If CO2 was a PRODUCT of quicklime production, rather than waste, it would help a lot. Imagine not needing to pump oil for jet fuel, but rather converting water and limestone (or sea shells?) into quicklime and methanol, all with concentrated solar as power source.
If only the world would run out of oil sooner, we might start seeing solutions instead of problems.
Cool idea except it’s not original
@@isaacyap9207 So it's being done somewhere?
Nice job
Well there's no way of getting any response from planting Scientists say however a tree need almost 30,40 or maybe more years to grow to potential for providing oxygen.
The Saudis have and are expanding the biggest fertilizer plant in the world, the plant is as big as a small city---
