Needless to say, as we have seen from disaster reports from #Greece and #Italy, for instance, in recent years, the rate of top-soil #Erosion in the areas hit by such extreme-weather events, is bound to increase exponentially initially. This, in turn--and this is my understanding not being a #Climatologist either--will feed into the #Desertification feedback loop.
In short:
These catastrophic events may not be decades away anymore, but...

It would be, I think will be, wonderful when solar panels at height are used at desert borders shrinking deserts, adding vegetation with partial shade, all while producing vast amounts of energy.
We ate at the edge of civilisation on a jewel.of planet.
ALL our problems are mismagement, theft and arrogant lunacy of billionaires.

China's 3,046-Kilometer "Great Green Wall" Has Transformed Its Largest Desert Into A Carbon Sink
#China has a new #GreatWall but this one isn't built of stone and mortar to repel marauding invaders from the north. Instead, the “Great Green Wall” is a vast belt of #trees and #shrubs lining the bottom of its northern deserts, designed to halt the steady creep of #desertification. New research suggests this massive megaproject is already functioning as a vital #CarbonSink, helping to stabilize the local #environment.
Located in northwest China’s Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, the #TaklamakanDesert is one of the driest places on Earth and the largest #desert in the country. It’s sometimes called the “Sea of Death” and “The Place of No Return” because of its desolate landscape, defined by towering dunes and a scarcity of #wildlife
