Efforts to green Sinai are putting Egypt in the international news, <\/strong>with CNN<\/a> running a piece yesterday on a Dutch engineer\u2019s initiative \u201caimed at restoring plant and animal life to roughly 13.5k square miles of the Sinai Peninsula.\u201d<\/p>\n

The game plan: <\/strong>A hydraulic engineer enlisted by the Egyptian government to help restore fish populations in Lake Bardawil in 2016, Ties van der Hoeven hopes to use dredged lake sediments and salt-tolerant plants to revitalize desert soils and add vegetation to Sinai\u2019s landscape. According to van der Hoeven, his proposed changes \u2014 which he says will regreen the area over 20-40 years \u2014 will bring back clouds, rain, and moisture-laden wind to Sinai.<\/p>\n

Great plan or dangerous techno-utopianism? <\/strong>Yet some question the efficacy of van der Hoeven\u2019s and others\u2019 attempts to massively re-engineer the environment, warning that the consequences of changing ecosystems are highly unpredictable and pointing out that planting vegetation and eliminating desert land can paradoxically have warming effects.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
