Can We Terraform the Sahara to Stop Climate Change?
The conclusions drawn from this film include that grass is better than leafage for solar reflection - albedo.
This ignores the fact that solar absorption by darker leaves does not result in higher temperature. The solar energy drives the photosynthetic process so much so that forests can be cool enough to attract cloud cover with producing improved albedo.
The best species for ‘carpeting’ would have to be highly prolific variants of Rhododendrons. Deciduous varieties providing nutrition for both themselves and the year-round photosynthesising evergreens.
The challenge is for irrigation to keep pace with rapid growth.
Drawing Carbon from the atmosphere has to be a priority if global cooling is to include every possible mode of operation. Time is not on our side.

Naturist and Social Nudist Women
Reversing Climate Change
A blog to address the problems:-
It is open to everyone and input from Naturist and Social Nudist women would give credibility and innovation to this movement.
It is very ambitious but at the same time simplicity itself. It has technological challenges, but with only a couple or few decades still left to us to avoid irreversible change, these challenges must be solved, even if it meant contributions from military resources.
The solution hopefully would appeal to the wonderful minds of naturist women - carpeting the very centre of the worlds desserts with bushes and shrubs such as Rhododendrons, evergreen and deciduous.
Bushes rather than trees to produce a dark-leaf mass sooner, also to provide some habitat for the "bottom end of the food chain".
Evergreen, to maintain photosynthesis all year round, Deciduous to put nutriment into the ground.
The technical problems would only arise if this simple idea gained traction and took off.
Thanking you for your interest thus far.

WWIV Additional Notes
Deciduous Rhododendrons would be needed along with
Evergreen varieties. Their annual leaf fall will add nutrients
to the desert soil for both themselves and the year-round
photosynthetic shrubs.
(Ericaceae), either evergreen or deciduous, and found
mainly in Asia, They are literally food plants for many grubs
and insects, ie. the bottom end of the Food Chain.
Military budgets are an essential requirement to get desalinated
irrigation to such a desert carpet, and additionally to keep up
with its - hopefully - prolific spread.
It's hard to think of a more cost-effective way of hoovering up
atmospheric carbon and dumping it back into the desert ground,
given a couple of decades window of opportunity left for
stabilising the otherwise runaway climate, that is on the verge of
tipping into irreversible changes.

World War IV - WWIV

A military approach is called for.
All we have is a couple of decades.
Pulling Carbon out of the atmosphere and putting it back into the ground must take on a high level of priority and operate on a massive scale. Carpeting the centre of desserts with evergreen bushes - e.g. Rhododendron with its prolific growth rate - will provide leaf mass more quickly than trees, while creating an environment for "the bottom end of the food chain".

The problem is in the irrigation/desalination. Drilling for groundwater is, of course, one tactical solution, but a strategic solution requires a massive drive to pipe and pump water from the sea. This would cover any and every situation and location. It would require military budgets, but the situation is desperate and warrants this kind of urgency.
Rouge World leaders do present problems, but traditional Allies must work together and go for the results. All we have is just a couple of decades.

extensively adapted and suitably high-yielding, so therefore suitable for genetic
engineering. Though present incarnations might be up to the task. Furthermore,
Rhodies need good drainage, making them especially suitable for the Sahara desert.
A soil consisting primarily of sand coupled with an abundance of desalinated irrigation
would be worth investigating as a first shot.
During this period, pollution will be gaining: Emissions continue to belch forth until MSRs etc. come online. After which emissions reduce to a minimum.

A Road Map for Reversing Global Warming.
Clawing CO2 out of the atmosphere. Putting carbon back into the ground.
CO2 remains in the atmosphere ten times longer than the fallout from Chernobyl.
Currently, ten times as much CO2 is in the atmosphere than at the time of the
previous Mass Extinction due to Climate Change. Thus, in our time, consequences
may develop ten times more rapidly.
To reverse Global Warming, Carbon Dioxide must be extracted from the
atmosphere, while putting carbon back into the ground, to, e.g. fertilise the
worlds desserts etc.
On a Global scale, a simple biological process is the only practical solution.

Bushes not Trees, quicker growth for massive leafage and support for biodiversity,

Issues of Desalination and Irrigation and the power driving these?
Who pays for this?
The societies putting the Carbon into the atmosphere initially might want to think about this.
How is it to be paid for?
As the cost of energy production falls, the retail price could be maintained, thus providing a
source of revenue for this project.
Thorium fueled Molten Salt Nuclear Reactors (MSR’s) are likely to be some 10 years away:
while Fusion Reactors no doubt will eventually join the game, though perhaps not in the time
frame relevant to this project.

Meanwhile, Wind/Solar/Tidal generation will at least set up an infrastructure with which to
salinate/irrigate a “carpet for the deserts” with a proliferate evergreen bush.
During this period, pollution will be gaining: Emissions continue to belch forth until MSRs etc. come online. After which emissions reduce to a minimum.
At which point the Biological processes will leap ahead as MSRs provide the necessary
(clean) energy for massive Desalination and Irrigation projects.
These power sources are ten odd years down the line, just need to cope until then.
Just how long will it take to capture enough CO2 to reverse Global Warming?
Problem of tipping the balance the other way and inadvertently bringing in an Ice Age with
consequent lowering of Sea Levels?!?!
Must be cheaper than setting up a Mars colony, or a couple or few Carrier Fleets.
Imaginative, inventive, constructive, out_of_the_box comments are most welcome.
Never be afraid to fly a kite so as to have it shot down in a ball of flames. The best
solutions are arrived at in these sort of ways.

Elsewhere, others point out that we have ten times the level of atmospheric
carbon than was present at the previous hot house mass extinction.
The solution offered here would consist of laying a carpet of evergreen bushes, eg,
Rhododendrons, etc. at the very centre of the world's major deserts, letting them
spread prolifically whilst supporting biodiversity - the bottom end of the food change.
The principal problem, of course, being irrigation and almost certainly desalination.
The power needed to purify, pipe and pump water these enormous distances could
initially come from Renewable Energy Sources. Later, Thorium Molten Salt Reactors
will become available. The costs would be less than a Mars colony or a couple or few Navy carrier fleets. Particularly since the US army had already installed a nuclear
power plant under the ice sheet in Greenland in the 1960's - in total secrecy.
We also have reports of promising solutions involving grazing desserts around their edges,
cause the others also to tip in a “domino” effect. Ocean acidification and subsequent
