Global Greening and Trillion Trees Initiative for faster reforestation and regreening of planet Earth

Article and News of March 2023

Here is another project work for all friends of nature explaining the importance of global greening for humanity and all other species. Nature and the forces of nature have supported the creation of this text, a person very connected to nature has written it. This article deals with the most important processes for all life and the biosphere on planet Earth - the global greening process and urban greening. It is written in English and in a very simple language to make it easier to understand. The article and very important paper is also translated into many other languages to understand some things even better. First we will look at the concept and terms, later different functions, meanings, possibilities and potentials.

Global greening and regreening is the process of restoring natural ecosystems and increasing the amount of green space on the planet. This involves reforestation, increasing the amount of vegetation in cities, and other measures to increase the amount of green cover on the land. Global greening is important for a variety of reasons, including providing habitats for wildlife, reducing air and water pollution, and mitigating the effects of climate change. It also provides an important source of food, fuel, and fiber for many people around the world. There is human-made greening and natural greening, you can build your own opinion – but read more to understand bad, good and other sides or aspects. Green is not always green, most people should finally understand, because if we talk about green we mean mostly nature, environmental friendly things or just green colors – but nature is not just green and blue like most of the 'experts' and media try to tell you. It is much more and to bring some colours and diversity into these topics Greening Deserts started the Global Greening and Trillion Trees Initiative some years ago.

Global greening efforts can be undertaken by businesses, governments and individuals in many countries. It is a continuous work and long-term investment that can have positive effects on both, our economy and environment. With the right plans and policies in place, global greening efforts can help to reduce poverty, improve public health and create a more equitable world for everyone – it even can accelerate the global cooling and peace process. Governments can invest in real sustainable reforestation projects and green initiatives to help to reduce man-made climate change impacts and provide healthier environments or habitats for their citizens and also all other humans worldwide. Businesses who do or support global greening solutions and invest in green technologies, renewable energy sources, cleantech or greentech can reduce the carbon footprint or emissions, pollution and increase their sustainability. Individuals can also taking part by planting trees, reducing energy consumption, much waste and start advocating for greener or more sustainable solutions.

Global greening is an important part of creating a better and greener future on planet Earth along with all life forms. To re-green and reforest the biosphere, nature is our greatest ally, everyone else who thinks they or their partners are or have "the solution" are lying. You can read here the best, only and really true solution - nature and many will prove it to you, as so many times before. Read more now about how the Global Greening organization began as a private and collaborative project, how it became a worldwide movement and finally an institution.

The Global Greening Project and future organization was founded many years ago as the main project of the Greening Deserts and Trillion Trees Initiative. The founder published many articles, innovative ideas and papers about the regreening and reforestation movement. GlobalGreening.org is and will be the main platform in the future, also for the development organization. The project is linked to Greening Deserts developments such as the global Greening Camps. It has long been a private initiative as part of the Trillion Trees Project. The Global Greening Institution wants to build an additional platform for Southern Europe and Africa, including the Drought Research Institute with its online platform DroughtResearch.com. With real active and financial support, the Global Greening Institute will also build a real building with the first nations that will really support us this year and have supported us in the first days - the Greening Campus and Institute can be built at any major Greening Camp still in the first year! All the organizations that have supported us financially will also be the main partners or sponsors, depending on the form and amount of support they have provided. They will make world history (or not) and some have even already made it, because historical archives, libraries and universities have stored a lot of background and information sent to them.

Global greening is one of the most important goals and tasks of humanity that can be achieved through a combination of cultural, individual, regional, societal and international efforts. Global greening is also global cooling and promotes or supports peacebuilding and peacekeeping. People in a healthier and greener environment are more peaceful and healthy. Together we humans can restore our natural ecosystems, reduce negative climate change effects or harmful man-made influences on nature and create a better future for us and planet Earth. There are a number of general and potential solutions for global greening like explained in this article. Most of them can be implemented at a local, regional, national and global level. Read also more on our project and network pages to understand the complexity and connections.

Before continuing with the main topics of the article, the Global Greening and Trillion Trees Initiative initiators are proud to announce some really great news! We have planned tree planting campaigns for 58 billion trees in North, East and West Africa - many tree species should be African, native or indigenous and endangered species, we hope international experts will also help us with this. Some countries where greening camps were started years ago will of course be included, such as Algeria, Ghana, Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania and Uganda - of course, only if the governments allow and support it. Responsible people of all affected regions will be included, informed and asked for support, especially before tree planting activities will begin.

For more diverse trees and plants in northern regions we plan to cultivate and share also many species of marshlands, moor-, swamp- and wetlands. The focus is on wet forests but also on woods and many single trees in tundra landscapes. The plan is to plant up to 100 billion trees in taiga and tundra regions, this will also help to cool down the regions, prevent permafrost thawing and higher methane releases! Each day counts and we hope the northern nations will support us fast as possible to build the first greening and ecosystem restoration camps there.

Another good news is that we plan tree planting actions, campaigns and greening camps for 42 billion native Australian trees like the methane composting or storage trees. More tree species will be planted of course, not just in Australia but also in South Asia. The MethaneStorage and WetForest.org projects are also part of the global greening process and to establish more healthier and resilent ecosystems who can store and transform more greenhouse gases! More wet forests and wetlands with trees are essential to reduce warming of forests and wetlands, to prevent dry forest soils and methane storage capacities. Check Greening Deserts articles and posts or tweets of the Trillion Trees Initiative and @TrillionTreesEU, too. Understand why global greening is so important for all life on planet Earth and what vertical farming and urban greening can do to improve global greening efforts.

Global Greening is a term used to describe the process of increasing vegetation cover and plant growth across the planet. One of the main causes of global greening is the rising levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere due to human activities such as the burning of fossil fuels. Carbon dioxide is an important nutrient for plants, and higher concentrations in the atmosphere have led to increased growth and expansion of forests and vegetation around the world. Despite the positive effects of global greening, deforestation remains a significant problem, particularly in regions such as the Amazon rainforest and Indonesia, where large areas of forest are being cleared for agriculture, mining and other forms of industrial or problematic developments. Deforestation has serious environmental consequences, leading to biodiversity loss, increased carbon and methane emissions, soil erosion and land degradation. The opposite of Global Greening is Global Browning, a process that is unfortunately increasing rapidly every year.

Vertical Farming is an innovative agricultural technique that involves growing crops in vertically stacked layers using artificial light and controlled environmental conditions. Vertical farms can be set up in urban areas and can produce high volumes of crops and trees without requiring large amounts of land or water.

Vertical farming can contribute to global greening and reforestation in several ways. First, it can help reduce pressure on natural forests and ecosystems by providing an alternative source of food and resources. Second, it can increase overall vegetation in urban areas, which can help mitigate the effects of urban heat islands and provide a number of other benefits, such as improved air quality and reduced noise pollution. Vertical farming is the future of efficient and sustainable agriculture for urban areas. It can help combat climate change by reducing the carbon footprint and harmful impacts of conventional agriculture. By growing crops locally and using energy-efficient technologies, vertical farming can significantly reduce the carbon emissions associated with transporting food long distances and producing it using conventional farming methods. By using urban land such as rooftops and walls for agriculture, cities can increase their food security while reducing their carbon emissions. For example, rooftop gardens and urban greenhouses can provide fresh produce to local communities, reduce the urban heat island effect, and capture rainwater that can be used to irrigate crops.

Many of these reasons were also a factor why Greening Deserts has been developing concepts and projects like the Urban Greening Camp for years. Innovative methods and techniques have been further developed as well as interesting Vertical Farming developments have been shared with the society - also regionally and internationally. Since 2016, three advanced types of greening facilities have been developed, the main facilities are Greening Camps for land sites with agroforestry, agrovoltaics, greenhouses and nursery. Rainwater or seawater treatment plants, solar and wind energy will provide the needed energy - more energy can be stored in energy storage parks and converted to hydrogen. The second type is a model urban greening facility, the concept of Urban Greening facility includes extended Vertical Farming concepts, Cleantech and Greentech developments and in principle can be established in any major city as a specialized nursery for city and people. These concepts are unique and have been published several times by Greening Deserts founders on different networks and sites! The vision is that all major regions affected by deforestation, desertification, and land degradation can use these camps to do reforestation, regreening or revegetation, soil improvement and freshwater harvesting faster and more efficiently than any other solution ever. Copying the concepts only confirms that Greening Deserts' developments work. The best thing would be to ask and involve the founder, together we can improve and develop Greening Camps much further, even to the Moon and Mars - just kidding, but the reality is that the world could use thousands of such facilities to really reduce and then stop man-made desertification and land degradation! We must ask ourselves why officials and responsible people or organizations who know this since years still do not support Greening Deserts? This ignorance is not only killing the environment and many life forms every year, it will destroy all humanity! Time is running out, every day counts.

Here come some more important points about why urban greening and global greening are so important to all of us - and why they are the only big, comprehensive or realistic global solution to urban greening, global greening and cooling. The article is written in very simple and english language that even children can understand.

Urban greening, ecological forestry, and sustainable cropping solutions such as agroforestry and regenerative agriculture are important components of global greening efforts. These approaches can help increase vegetation cover, restore degraded ecosystems, and mitigate the effects of climate change. Urban greening refers to increasing vegetation cover in urban areas. This includes planting trees, creating green spaces, and using green roofs and walls. Urban greening has several benefits such as improving air quality, reducing the heat island effect, and increasing biodiversity. Urban greening can provide a source of food and other resources, which can help reduce pressure on natural ecosystems. It has a positive impact on biodiversity and provides more healthy habitats for people and a variety of animal and plant species - similar to the concept of allotment gardens developed in Leipzig. All of these measures help create more green spaces that can provide important habitat for many native species, especially insects and pollinators such as bees, butterflies and wasps. Ecological forestry or ecoforestry, is an approach to forest management that aims to balance environmental, social, and economic goals. Ecoforestry focuses on preserving natural ecosystems, using sustainable harvesting techniques, and involving local communities in forest management. Ecoforestry can help maintain and restore forest ecosystems that are critical for carbon sequestration, biodiversity, and the provision of ecosystem services. Agroforestry is an agricultural technique that combines growing trees with cropping or raising livestock. This approach can help increase soil fertility, reduce erosion, and provide farmers with a source of income. By planting trees in and around cropland, farmers can improve soil health by increasing soil organic matter and improving soil water-holding capacity. Trees can also provide shade and windbreaks for crops, which can lead to reduced water use and increased crop yields. Agroforestry can also contribute to global greening by increasing vegetation cover and restoring degraded lands. Agroforestry and regenerative agriculture can also help improve the health and resilience of soil ecosystems. Through the use of crop rotations, cover crops, and natural fertilizers, these approaches can improve soil fertility and reduce the need for synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. This can help reduce the environmental impact of agriculture and promote the long-term sustainability of food production.

Regenerative agriculture is an agricultural approach that focuses on restoring soil health and using sustainable agricultural practices. Regenerative agriculture can help increase soil carbon sequestration, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and improve biodiversity. This approach can also contribute to global greening by increasing vegetation cover and restoring degraded lands. One of the most important benefits of regenerative agriculture is its potential to sequester large amounts of carbon in the soil. Carbon sequestration refers to the process of taking up and storing carbon from the atmosphere in plants and soils. By increasing the amount of organic matter in the soil, regenerative agriculture can help store large amounts of carbon, which in turn can mitigate the effects of climate change. Together with agroforestry and vertical farming, these are the best sustainable farming practices that can contribute greatly to global greening, healing and re-greening. Another important factor to consider in global greening efforts is the role of technologies. Advances in technology have the potential to significantly improve sustainable land use practices, including urban greening, ecological forestry, agroforestry, and regenerative agriculture. For example, precision agriculture technologies can be used to optimize crop yields while reducing fertilizer and water use, promoting sustainable land use practices. Similarly, remote sensing technologies can be used to monitor and map changes in forest cover and land use, providing valuable information for forest management and conservation. It is important to recognize that the use of some technologies in global greening efforts should be approached with caution. While some of the technologies have the potential to improve sustainable land use practices, they can also have negative impacts on the environment and society. For example, the use of genetically modified crops can lead to the loss of genetic diversity and the emergence of new pests and diseases. The use of technology in global greening and green developments, honest climate and environmental protection should be led by really good experts and responsible scientists, especially those with strong ethical and legal frameworks - like the Scientists for Global Responsibility. This includes policies and regulations that promote the safe and responsible use of technologies and the protection of biodiversity and ecosystems. Global Greening must not be misused for Greenwashing or Treewashing, as it has unfortunately already happened with many tree planting and environmental protection campaigns. You only have to search the media and the internet for terms like 30x30, Carbon Credits, Green Colonialism, Greenwashing, Land Grabbing, Net Zero and New Green Deal or Nature Positive and you will find a lot of scandals and scarry backgrounds. Read also more about all the problems with carbon credits, which even made the global situation immensely worse. The same goes for biodiversity credits and the idea of financialization of nature and a nature market.

Urban greening, ecological forestry, and sustainable agricultural solutions such as agroforestry, permaculture, regenerative agriculture, and vertical farming are important components of global greening efforts. These main solutions can help increase healthier and more natural vegetation, restore degraded ecosystems, and mitigate the effects of climate change. By combining these approaches with other measures such as reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promoting sustainable development, humanity may be able to stop accelerating global warming, biodiversity loss, and mass extinctions before it is too late - around the year 2030? It is no joke and very serious, some tipping points have already been passed and any further tipping point is likely to trigger cascading effects that cannot be stopped by human action! Most developments require a holistic approach that takes into account the social, cultural, economic and environmental dimensions of sustainability. This also requires collaboration and partnership among various stakeholders, including governments, civil society, the private sector, and local communities. For this reason, Greening Deserts will accelerate and support GlobalGreening .. read more on the project pages.

Global Greening Deserts projects for biodiversity conservation and worldwide reduction of carbon and methane emissions on a large scale

The global program and project organization MethanStorage.org was launched by Greening Deserts founder Oliver Caplikas in the summer. The potential danger of exceeding tipping points as well as possible and innovative solutions to reduce methane emissions in relation with permafrost problems and forest fires were recognized in time. In the run-up the WetForest project for wetlands was founded, including the sub-project MoorForest, which aims to establish more wet forests and forested peatlands, marshlands or moorlands that could significantly reduce global methane emissions from wetlands. This is because shading grasses, shrubs and trees in wetlands keeps them cooler and cools them noticeably during droughts or heat waves. Logically, this reduces methane emissions, and climate-resilient plants and drought-tolerant trees also help protect wetlands as global warming increases. The plants in wetlands are usually better adapted to extreme weather events anyway. It would be great if German as well as European experts for wetlands, peatlands and marshlands join our projects like SwampForest or MoorForest.org.

More wildfires or fires in rainforests and southern wetlands are releasing a lot of carbon and methane, can make forests and wetlands sources of greenhouse gas emissions. Arctic areas are warming 3 to 4 times faster than the global average, further accelerating and increasing natural emissions. Warmer northern areas such as Siberia and the aftermath of the war in Ukraine have significantly increased global methane emissions. One should also not underestimate the share of the military complex and the defense industry, as this is much related to the fossil energy industry, especially the gas, coal and steel industries. The concrete industry and construction industry are left out here, otherwise this would go beyond the scope of the article. Many people wonder why there has been such a rapid increase in methane in the atmosphere in recent years. The answer is relatively simple, it is the considerable emissions due to the increase of man-made emissions and factors, especially due to "bridge technologies" like gas power plants and increasing gas production and consumption. Plus rising emissions from agriculture and the coal industry, with particularly large amounts of methane released from coal mining areas, gas and oil pipelines. Plus large methane emissions from increased forest fires and thawed permafrost, as well as methane emissions from worldwide wetlands and Northern Hemisphere lakes. Particularly large amounts of methane have been released from warming wetlands in Africa, Europe, North and South America. One should not forget Russia and Asia, of course, as well as Australia and many of the intense forest fires that have released incredible amounts of methane. All of this has also triggered or passed a couple of tipping points. The Arctic is warming many times faster as the rest of the world, so parts of the ocean with methane deposits are warming faster than thought. Methane concentrations in rivers, oceans, and lakes are increasing due to global warming, warmer rains, and warmed waters. This is also a reason for increased methane emissions from wetlands, especially in the taiga and tundra.

It is logical that wetlands without trees warm up faster than moist forests that cast shade. This is also a reason why wetlands release more methane. Forest ecosystems suffer from droughts or extreme drought, store carbon poorly, and may even release more methane - especially from forest fires and dried out or destroyed soils. There are some large-scale solutions such as wetland forests, methane-eating bacteria, and aquatic plants that could reduce or even stop emissions. Mechanical solutions such as capping the lake bottom with an additional layer of clay or similar material from the region! Small lakes can be filled in. Trees can cool the area by many degrees, even in urban areas, this has been known for years! Sad that many officials and responsible people of EU and UN have ignored the projects for many years. To date, not a single project has received any active or financial support. The human future and many species are in real danger if they continue to be ignored, especially the important CESRPP program and Greening Deserts developments and projects for ecosystem restoration, global biodiversity conservation, reforestation and regreening. There is really not much time left, as extreme developments and events related to rising emissions and global warming have left humanity with even less time than before. If Greening Deserts main projects and the Species Rescue Program do not finally receive support, next year may already be too late. In the worst case, most people and species will not survive - also because those responsible ignored the urgent projects and did not act in time. It is just crazy how many billions they spent for destruction, pollution and war, but not a single cent in the most important projects for humanity.

In order to establish and protect forests in peatlands and wetlands, we need support as quickly as possible, because in just a few years this will no longer be possible in some regions where tree planting is planned, e.g. in southern Europe and North Africa. The new program for global methane reduction MethaneStorageOrg should be supported as soon as possible so that millions of moor or swamp trees can be planted. Natural or typical organisms like bacteria, fungi and water plants can be used which are useful for the wetlands, especially those which can bind and convert methane! Greening Camps can be quickly deployed as mobile storage facilities with containerized systems. Pre-germinated tree seeds and cultivated plants could then be effectively deployed in appropriate regions. For larger areas such as northern Canada and Europe, balloons and airplanes can be used for seeding. For years, Greening Deserts has been recommending the use of seeding balloons which, like drones, can also sow plant seeds autonomously and automatically! These are much more effective and cheaper than expensive drones, in addition they need much less energy, since one can use solar balloons or zepellins. Since the climate conference in Glasgow and with the latest UN climate conference in Egypt COP27, it is finally more about the methane emissions caused by humans and direct influences of the economy or certain industries. Thanks to new monitoring programs and satellites, many of the methane emissions from global industries, such as agriculture and fossil fuels, can now be better tracked. The gas and coal industries, as well as agriculture, account for a very large share of global methane emissions. With many more people and nations now concerned about these factors and the role of direct man-made part to global methane emissions, the Methane Storage Organization program for methane storage and greenhouse gas reduction is now focusing on the planet's natural and largest sources of methane.

For years, Greening Deserts has been researching not only drylands and arid ecosystems, but also wetlands such as floodplains, bogs, wet forests, lake and river landscapes. Long-term studies of marsh trees and wetland plants have been conducted, including photography in wetlands of Europe like in Germany, Poland and Lithuania. Swamps and bog forests were documented for more than 20 years. More details and results will be also published with the German projects and project developments such as Eichenwald.org, FeuchtWald and MoorWald in the future. The international platform will then be accessible under MoorForest and WetForest.org. For years we have been recommending the reforestation or regreening and expansion of peatlands or moorlands, which can store more carbon CO2 than all other ecosystems. In order to further reduction of greenhouse gases like carbon CO2 and methane CH4 emissions, trees should be planted, at least where methane emissions are very high or increasing due to warming. Swamp or marsh trees such as swamp oak and bald cypress grow relatively quickly. Together with organisms such as bacteria and fungi they regulate natural processes, stabilize water or wet soils - in some cases they even bind and convert methane. Some international studies and research showing that it is possible to prevent and reduce natural methane emissions. Sad that so many ignoring all these facts and scientific work which was published on Greening Deserts projects and social pages. Some officials and even corrupt politicians even harmed the founder and work several times during many years! Certain authorities, different parties and politicians ignored all requests, also some cities did not take the e-mails and urgent letters seriously. Strange was the blockade and even harmful interference with the life and work of the founder by Leipzig officials, authorities and state representatives of Saxony! We found many corrupt connections and relations of officials and politicians involved in dubious operations related to the coal and lignite industry. Since protests and publications because of the lignite and pollution problems in Saxony, Germany and Europe endless of questionable actions against Greening Deserts founder and work was documented. We climate and species protectors, conservationists and environmentalists, as well as human rights activists and defenders will never forget this and remind all each year.

Back to the main topics like the global climate emergency projects and programs like ClimateEmergency Europe Klimanotstand.EU. We researchers and scientists are recommending that international disaster response teams, nations, and UN agencies use data on climate change impacts, models, and environmental impacts of tipping points such as thawing permafrost to reduce disaster risk. At least some researchers and scientists with ties to international institutions have taken the work and projects somewhat seriously. Already in 2016 we wanted to establish first greening camps for re-vegetation and reforestation in Germany to establish more biodiversity, biotopes and wet forests in open cast mining areas like in Europe and our home country in Germany or Saxony.

A few more contributions from Greening Deserts project and social pages The demand for more peatlands or wetlands and the strategy of some organizations in Europe and Germany comes with high risks if rewetting of peatlands or new wetlands is not properly implemented things can become more worse as before. If the climate or weather does not play along and extreme weather events, forest fires, natural and human factors are underestimated these carbon sinks can turn into sources of more CO2 and CH4. The methane problem in wetlands cannot be ignored, as unfortunately so many have been doing for years. Emissions from drained peat bogs and from peat cutting are also not negligible. Similarly, the euphoric or unrealistic actions and trends for hydrogen. Methane is highly explosive and with the increased fire hazards, heated wetlands and peatlands can ignite more quickly, especially if they are no longer well flooded or watered. One should take the large moor and forest fires in the taiga and tundra in Siberia as a cautionary example.

In Germany there have also been many moorland fires, of particular interest being the large moor fire near the town of Meppen on the grounds of the German armed forces in Lower Saxony. This scandal has not been properly clarified to this day and those responsible have pulled out of the affair, including the current President of the European Commission. She was in fact the responsible minister, the Minister of Defense and the Bundeswehr have not made good the damage to this day. The German Armed Forces could have been deployed years ago for the protection and expansion of moorlands, as well as for reforestation throughout Germany. However, it was rather praised heroic missions and 'fights' of the Bundeswehr against the bark beetle, very questionable why one has not planted more new trees there in the same course? In Germany, after all the forest dieback and forest loss due to droughts, pests and forest fires, reforestation do not keep up. Too little tree breeding and planting activities in winter, lack of seeds and tree species does not noticeably increase biodiversity and significantly reduces the reforestation rate. Germany loses more trees than new ones are added.

We have nothing against the Bundeswehr, charitable and social missions. But if such actions are thwarted by various problems and scandals of responsible politicians, one does not need to wonder about the balances, consequences and results. The climate balance of the Bundeswehr and the military in general is another important story. See more on Greening Deserts project pages such as the Trillion Trees Initiative for Europe and the European Forest Health. Wetland drainage and increased evaporation from droughts, heat waves and warmer years have contributed significantly to the annual increase in emissions - whether carbon CO2, methane CH4 or nitrous oxide N2O. "As much carbon is stored in Germany's peatlands as in forests, even though peatlands make up only about five percent of the land area and forests about 30 percent; When the water level is lowered by water drainage systems (drains), air enters the peatland body and bacteria and other soil dwellers begin to break down the plant material (mineralization). Large amounts of carbon are then released into the atmosphere. Nitrous oxide (N2O) is also emitted, which is 265 times more harmful to the climate than CO2. Drained peatlands thus become a source of greenhouse gases and contribute significantly to climate change." - Bundesamt für Naturschutz (BfN)

We all have no time for bureaucratic or political theater; the clock is ticking. If we don't act now and establish and implement national reforestation plans for wet forests and wetlands, it will be too late in just 10 years. Serious scientists estimate that global warming will be 5 to 8°C in the next 20 years due to rising methane emissions and triggered tipping points. Special wetland plants, grasses, shrubs and trees can cool these areas. Bog or swamp trees are the key to holding and storing carbon and methane for the long term! NASA has discovered many methane hotspots, these should be regions to focus on reducing methane emissions through cooling, capture or storage with natural and engineered solutions. More info on Greening Deserts project pages and social sites. Check also GlobalGreening.org, MethaneStorage.org, TrillionTrees.eu and TrillionTreesInitiative.org for more updates in future.

Short summaries, further information and important details:

Stakeholders and the United Nations should finally help us establish climate adaptation, ecosystem restoration and greening camps in the Nordic regions with the largest methane emissions. There we can plant millions of marsh plants and trees with germinated seeds that are then sown using seed balloons and airplanes. If the seeds need some ground cover, we can use seedballs. Greening Deserts and the Trillion Trees Initiative have begun developing major projects for these large-scale carbon reduction and methane storage programs. They are called #MethaneStorage, #MoorForest and #TundraForest - the latter for permafrost regions. Establishing peatland and tundra forests as quickly as possible using seed planes and seeding balloons could reduce global carbon and methane releases in the tundra and thawing permafrost regions with the highest emissions. People forget that the 1.5°C goal and story is very imprecise, partly in a regional or global context. There are regions, land and sea areas which are already above 2.0°C! Some heat islands and cities have even already exceeded 4.0 degrees! #DRR #HeatIsland #HeatWave #UrbanHeat The MethaneStorage.Org program should be initiated and supported immediately to reduce the future impacts of thawing permafrost with high methane emissions. In as little as two years, the spread of these plants, fungi, and bacteria can significantly reduce methane releases by stabilizing the soil and water cycles.

Greening Deserts Globale Projekte für die Reduktion der globalen Kohlenstoff- und Methan-Emissionen weltweit

German article about global carbon and methane reduction for scientific purposes.

Das globale Programm und die Projektorganisation MethanStorage.org wurde von Greening Deserts Gründer Oliver Caplikas im Sommer gestartet, da er durch die Permafrost-Problematik und Waldbrände rechtzeitig das Gefahrenpotential aber auch gute Potentiale und innovative Lösungen der Methanreduzierung gefunden hat. Im Vorfeld wurde das Feuchtwald-Projekt WetForest.org für Feuchtgebiete gegründet, dazu gehört auch das Unterprojekt MoorForest.org, welches mehr Feuchtwälder und bewaldete Moore etablieren soll welches erheblich den globalen Methanaustoß von Feuchtgebieten reduzieren könnte. Denn durch die Beschattung von Gräsern, Büschen und Bäumen in Feuchtgebieten werden diese kühler gehalten und bei Dürren oder Hitzewellen merklich abgekühlt. Dies reduziert logischerweise die Methanemissionen, durch klimaresiliente Gewächse und dürretolerante Bäume werden zudem auch bei steigender globaler Erwärmung Feuchtgebiete besser geschützt. Die Gewächse in Feuchtgebieten sind meist sowieso besser an extreme Wetterereignisse angepasst. Wir würden uns freuen wenn deutsche sowie europäische Experten für Feuchtgebiete und Moore sich unseren Projekten wie Moorwald.org anschließen.

Durch die vermehrten Waldbrände in Sibirien und die Folgen des Krieges in der Ukraine sind die globalen Methanemissionen zusätzlich angestiegen. Man sollte den Anteil des Militärkomplexes und der Rüstungsindustrie auch nicht unterschätzen, da dieser viel mit der fossilen Energiewirtschaft zusammenhängt, besonders mit der Gas-, Kohle- und Stahlindustrie. Die Betonindustrie und Bauwirtschaft wird hier außen vorgelassen, dies würde sonst den Rahmen des Artikels sprengen.

Es fragen sich viele wieso in den letzten Jahren so ein rasanter Anstieg von Methan in der Atmosphäre zu beobachten ist. Die Antwort ist relativ einfach, es sind die erheblichen Ausstöße durch den Anstieg menschengemachter Emissionen, besonders durch "Brückentechnologien" wie Gaskraftwerke und steigende Gasproduktion sowie Verbrauch. Dazu steigende Emissionen aus der Landwirtschaft und Kohleindustrie, besonders viel Methan wird durch Kohleabbau-Gebiete, Gas- und Öl-Pipelines freigesetzt. Dazu kommen große Methanemissionen durch die vermehrten Waldbrände und aufgetaute Permafrostböden sowie Methanausstöße von Seen aus der Nordhemisphäre. Besonders viel Methan wurde durch die Erwärmung von Feuchtgebieten in Afrika, Europa, Nord- und Südamerika freigesetzt. Dabei sollte man Russland und Asien natürlich nicht vergessen sowie Australien und viele der heftigen Waldbrände welche unglaubliche Mengen an Methan freigesetzt haben. Dies alles hat außerdem ein paar Kipppunkte ausgelöst bzw. überschritten. Die Arktis erwärmt sich fast viermal so schnell wie der Rest der Welt, dadurch werden Teile des Ozeans mit Methanvorkommen schneller erwärmt als gedacht. Die Methankonzentrationen in Flüssen, Meeren und Seen steigen durch die globale Erwärmung, wärmeren Regen und erwärmten Gewässern. Dies ist auch ein Grund für die erhöhten Methanemissionen von Feuchtgebieten, besonders in der Taiga und Tundra.

Es ist logisch, dass sich Feuchtgebiete ohne Bäume schneller erwärmen als feuchte Wälder, welche Schatten werfen. Dies ist auch ein Grund wieso Feuchtgebiete vermehrt Methan abgeben, Waldökosysteme an Dürren oder extremer Trockenheit leiden, schlechter Kohlenstoff speichern und sogar vermehrt auslösen können – besonders durch Waldbrände und ausgetrocknete oder zerstörte Böden. Es gibt einige groß angelegte Lösungen wie Feuchtwälder, methanfressende Bakterien und Wasserpflanzen, die diese Freisetzungen aufhalten könnten. Mechanische Lösungen wie das Verschließen des Seebodens mit einer zusätzlichen Tonschicht oder ähnlichem Material aus der jeweiligen Region! Kleine Seen können aufgefüllt werden. Bäume können das Gebiet um viele Grad abkühlen, auch in städtischen Gebieten, das weiß man seit Jahren! Traurig, dass viele Leute der EU und UN unsere Projekte seit Jahren ignorieren und wir bis heute keinerlei aktive oder finanzielle Unterstützung für irgendein Projekt erhalten, etwa für das Programm CESRPP und Greening Deserts Entwicklungen oder Projekte.

Um Wälder in Moor- oder Feuchtgebieten zu etablieren und zu schützen brauchen wir schnellstmögliche Unterstützung, denn schon in wenigen Jahren wird in einigen Regionen wo Baumpflanzungen geplant sind dies nicht mehr möglich sein, z.B. in Südeuropa und Nordafrika. Das neue Programm für die globale Methanreduzierung MethaneStorageOrg sollte schnellstmöglich unterstützt werden damit Millionen von Moor- bzw. Sumpfbäumen gepflanzt werden können. Es können natürliche bzw. typische Organismen wie Bakterien, Pilze und Wasserpflanzen genutzt werden welche für die Feuchtgebiete nützlich sind, besonders jene welche Methan binden und umwandeln können! Greening Camps können als mobile Lager mit Containeranlagen schnell eingesetzt werden. Vorgekeimte Baumsamen und gezüchtete Pflanzen könnten dann in enstprechenden Regionen effektiv ausgebracht werden. Für größere Gebiete wie im Norden von Kanada und Europa können Ballons und Flugzeuge für die Aussaat verwendet werden. Seit Jahren empfiehlt Greening Deserts schon den Einsatz von Aussaatballons welche wie Drohnen auch autonom und automatisiert Pflanzensamen aussähen können! Diese sind viel effektiver und günstiger als teure Dronen, dazu brauchen sie viel weniger Energie, da man Solarballons verwenden kann.

Seit der Klimakonferenz in Glasgow und mit der aktuellen UN-Klimakonferenz in Ägypten COP27 geht es endlich mehr um die von den Menschen verursachten Methan-Emissionen und direkte Anteile der Wirtschaft bzw. bestimmter Industrien. Mit neuen Monitoring-Programmen und Satelliten können viele der Methanemissionen der globaler Industrien nun besser erfasst werden, etwa der Agrar- und Fossilindustrie. Die Gas- und Kohleindustrie sowie die Landwirtschaft haben einen sehr großen Anteil am globalen Methanausstoß.

Da sich nun sehr viel mehr Menschen und Nationen um diese Faktoren und direkten menschengemachten Anteile am globalen Methanausstoß kümmern konzentriert sich das Programm Methan Storage Organization für die Methanspeicherung und Treibhausgas-Reduzierung nun auf die natürlichen und größten Methanquellen des Planeten.

Seit Jahren erforscht Greening Deserts nicht nur Trockengebiete und aride Ökosysteme, sondern auch Feuchtgebiete wie Auen, Moore, Feuchtwälder, Seen- und Flusslandschaften. Es wurden Langzeitstudien an Sumpfbäumen und Pflanzen aus Feuchtgebieten durchgeführt, auch fotografisch und in so einigen Feuchtgebieten von Europa – etwa in Deutschland, Polen und Litauen. Dabei wurden Sümpfe und Moorwälder über 20 Jahre lang dokumentiert. Resultate werden mit den Projekten und Projektentwicklungen wie Eichenwald.org, FeuchtWald und MoorWald in Zukunft veröffentlicht. Die internationale Plattform wird dann unter MoorForest und WetForest.org erreichbar sein.

Wir empfehlen seit Jahren die Aufforstung bzw. Bewaldung und Erweiterung von Moorgebieten welche mehr Kohlenstoff CO2 speichern können als alle anderen Ökosysteme, auch damit Emissionen weiter reduziert und besonders der Methanaustoß gemindert wird sollten Bäume gepflanzt werden, jedenfalls dort wo die Methan-Emissionen durch Erwärmung sehr hoch sind oder ansteigen. Sumpf- bzw. Moorbäume wie Sumpfeichen oder Sumpfzypressen wachsen relativ schnell und können zusammen mit Organismen wie Bakterien und Pilzen die Gewässer bzw. feuchten Böden stabilisieren, in einigen Fällen sogar Methan binden sowie umwandeln!

Viele Behörden, verschiedene Parteien und Politiker ignorierten alle Anfragen, auch einige Städte nahmen die E-Mails und Eilbriefe nicht ernst. Befremdlich war die Blockade und sogar schädliche Beeinträchtigung des Lebens und der Arbeit des Gründers durch Leipziger Beamte, Behörden und Landesvertreter Sachsens! Wir fanden viele korrupte Verbindungen und Beziehungen von Beamten und Politikern, die in dubiose Vorgänge im Zusammenhang mit der Stein- und Braunkohleindustrie verwickelt sind.

Wir Forscher und Wissenschaftler empfehlen internationalen Katastrophenschutz-Teams, Nationen und UN-Organisationen, Daten über die Auswirkungen des Klimawandels, Modelle und Umweltauswirkungen von Kipp-Punkten wie auftauendem Permafrost für die Verringerung des Katastrophenrisikos einzusetzen. Wenigstens einige Forscher und Wissenschaftler mit Verbindungen zu den internationalen Institutionen haben die Arbeiten und Projekte etwas ernst genommen. Bereits im Jahr 2016 wollten wir erste Greening Camps zur Wiederbegrünung und Aufforstung in Deutschland errichten, um mehr Artenvielfalt, Biotope und Feuchtwälder in Tagebaugebieten wie in Europa und unserem Heimatland in Deutschland bzw. Sachsen zu etablieren.

Kurze Zusammenfassung, weitere Informationen und wichtige Details:

Betroffene und die Vereinten Nationen sollten uns endlich dabei unterstützen, Greening Camps in den nordischen Regionen mit den größten Methanemissionen aufzubauen. Dort können wir Millionen von Sumpfpflanzen und Bäumen auspflanzen, indem wir Samen vorkeimen lassen, die dann mit Hilfe von Saatballons und Flugzeugen ausgesät werden. Wenn die Samen ein wenig Bodenbedeckung benötigen, können wir Seedballs verwenden.

Die Greening Deserts und die Trillion Trees Initiative haben mit der Entwicklung wichtiger Projekte für diese groß angelegten Programme zur Kohlenstoffreduzierung und Methanspeicherung begonnen. Sie heißen #MethaneStorage, #MoorForest und #TundraForest – letztere für Permafrost-Regionen.

Die schnellstmögliche Etablierung von Moor- und Tundrawäldern mit Hilfe von Saatgut-Flugzeugen und Aussaatballons könnte die globale Kohlenstoff- und Methanfreisetzung in den Tundra- und auftauenden Permafrostregionen mit den größten Emissionen reduzieren.

Die Leute vergessen, dass die 1,5°C Geschichte sehr ungenau ist, teils im regionalen oder globalen Kontext. Es gibt Regionen, Land- und Meeresgebiete welche bereits über 2,0°C liegen! Manche Hitzeinseln und Städte haben sogar schon 4.0 Grad überschritten! #DRR #Urban #HeatIsland #Hitzeinsel

Das Programm MethaneStorage.Org sollte sofort in Angriff genommen und unterstützt werden, um die künftigen Auswirkungen des auftauenden Permafrostgebiets mit hohen Methanemissionen zu verringern. Schon in zwei Jahren kann die Ausbreitung dieser Pflanzen, Pilze und Bakterien die Methanfreisetzung durch die Stabilisierung des Boden- und Wasserkreislaufs erheblich verringern.

Hier noch ein paar Beiträge von unseren sozialen Seiten und Projektseiten:

Die Forderung nach mehr Mooren und Strategie der Länder und einiger Organisationen in Deutschland ist also mit hohen Risiken verbunden falls Wiedervernässung von Mooren nicht richtig umgesetzt wird, das Klima bzw. Wetter nicht mitspielt und extreme Wetterereignisse, Waldbrände, natürliche und menschliche Faktoren diese Senken zu Quellen von noch mehr CO2 und CH4 machen. Die Methan-Problematik von Feuchtgebieten und Mooren ist nicht zu vernachlässigen. Methan ist hoch explosiv und bei den erhöhten Brandgefahren können aufgeheizte Feuchtgebiete und Moore sich schneller entzünden, besonders wenn sie nicht mehr gut geflutet bzw. gewässert sind. Man sollte die großen Moor- und Waldbrände in der Taiga und Tundra in Sibirien als warnendes Beispiel nehmen.

In Deutschland gab es auch schon viele Moorbrände, besonders interessant der große Moorbrand bei der Stadt Meppen auf dem Gelände der Bundeswehr in Niedersachsen. Dieser Skandal wurde bis heute nicht richtig geklärt und Verantwortliche haben sich aus der Affäre gezogen, u.a. auch die heutige Präsidentin der Europäischen Kommission. Ursula von der Leyen war nämlich die verantwortliche Ministerin, die Verteidigungsministerin und die Bundeswehr haben bis heute den Schaden nicht wiedergutgemacht. Die Bundeswehr hätte schon seit Jahren für den Moorschutz und die Erweiterung von Moorgebieten eingesetzt werden können, ebenso wie für die deutschlandweite Aufforstung. Es wurden aber lieber heldenhaften Einsätze und 'Kämpfe' der Bundeswehr gegen den Borkenkäfer gelobt, sehr fraglich wieso man dort im gleichen Zuge nicht mehr neue Bäume gepflanzt hat? In Deutschland kommt man nach all dem Waldsterben und Waldverlust durch Waldbrände mit der Aufforstung schon lange nicht mehr hinterher.

Wir haben nichts gegen die Bundeswehr, gemeinnützige und soziale Einsätze. Werden solche Aktionen aber durch diverse Probleme und Skandale verantwortlicher Politiker zunichte gemacht, braucht man sich nicht über die Bilanzen, Folgen und Resultate wundern. Die Klimabilanz der Bundeswehr und generell des Militärs ist noch eine andere wichtige Geschichte. Mehr dazu auch auf den Projektseiten von Greening Deserts wie der Trillion Trees Initiative für Europa und die europäische Waldgesundheit TrillionTrees.eu.

Die Trockenlegung von Feuchtgebieten und erhöhte Verdunstung durch Dürren, Hitzewellen und wärmere Jahre haben erheblich zu der jährlichen Erhöhung der Emissionen beigetragen - ob Kohlenstoff CO2, Methan CH4 oder Lachgas N2O. "In den deutschen Mooren ist genauso viel Kohlenstoff gespeichert wie in den Wäldern, obwohl Moore nur rund fünf Prozent der Landfläche ausmachen und Wälder etwa 30 Prozent; Wird der Wasserstand durch Wasserableitungssysteme (Drainagen) gesenkt, gelangt Luft in den Moorkörper und Bakterien sowie andere Bodenbewohner beginnen, das pflanzliche Material abzubauen (Mineralisierung). Große Mengen Kohlenstoff werden dann in die Atmosphäre freigesetzt. Außerdem wird Lachgas (N2O) emittiert, das 265-mal klimaschädlicher ist als CO2. Entwässerte Moore werden so zur Quelle von Treibhausgasen und tragen erheblich zum Klimawandel bei." - Bundesamt für Naturschutz (BfN)

Wir haben keine Zeit für bürokratisches oder politisches Theater; die Uhr tickt. Wenn wir jetzt nicht handeln und nationale Aufforstungspläne für Feuchtwälder und Feuchtgebiete aufstellen sowie umsetzen, wird es in nur 10 Jahren zu spät sein.

Seriöse Wissenschaftler schätzen, dass die globale Erwärmung in den nächsten 20 Jahren aufgrund steigender Methanemissionen und ausgelöster Kipppunkte 5 bis 8°C betragen wird. Spezielle Feuchtgebietspflanzen, Gräser, Sträucher und Bäume können diese Gebiete abkühlen. Moor- bzw. Sumpfbäume sind der Schlüssel um den Kohlenstoff und das Methan langfristig zu halten und zu speichern! Die NASA hat viele Methan-Hotspots entdeckt, diese sollten Regionen sein, auf die sich auf die Reduzierung der Methanemissionen durch Kühlung, Abscheidung oder Speicherung mit natürlichen und technischen Lösungen konzentrieren sollten.

Artenschutz-Projekt und Kampagne zum Klimanotstand fordert Rettung von Flüssen, Feuchtgebieten und Wäldern mit Hilfe nachhaltiger Flutungen sowie Wiedervernässung

Seit Frühjahr beobachtet Greening Deserts Dürre- und Klimaforscher sowie Experte für Feuchtgebiete mit Sorge die Entwicklung und Auswirkungen der schleichenden bzw. stillen Dürre welche in Ostdeutschland und einigen Teilen von Europa leider viel zu spät ernst genommen wurde. Etwa ab Mitte März haben internationale Atmosphären- und Klimaforscher Anzeichen oder Tendenzen einer Dürre gesehen. Der Dürreforscher Oliver Caplikas erkannte ein neues ungewöhnliche Wetterphänomen im April und dokumentierte diese Phänomen ab Mai regelmäßig. Die viel zu häufigen und großen Windwirbel über der Nordsee und im Norden der Atlantikküste, teils oberhalb von Schottland und Dänemark, blockierten sehr oft die Wolkenbildung bzw. großen Wassermassen welche sonst über diesen Bereich und Kanal über West- und Mitteleuropa ziehen. Im Austausch mit internationalen Klimaforschern wurden die Effekte und Faktoren dieser extremen Dürre ergründet und es laufen Studien bzw. eine Langzeitstudie. Mehr dazu in dem Artikel: Dürre in Deutschland und Europa setzt der Monokultur-Forstwirtschaft, Landwirtschaft und Bevölkerung stark zu - Siehe auch andere Artikel, Entwicklungen und Forschungsergebnisse für innovative sowie wirklich nachhaltige Lösungen.

Auswirkungen zu Land und Wasser in Leipzig und Leipziger Region wurden umfangreich dokumentiert und analysiert, Bodenanalysen und Pegelstände von Flüssen aufgenommen. Es wurden viele Wasserproben entnommen und dunkel, fachgerecht sowie luftdicht in Flaschen für weitere Analysen und Erforschung in Zukunft aufbewahrt. Mit Sorge wurden die sinkenden Pegelstände der Elster beobachtet, besonders im Bereich Auwald, Schleußig, Kleinzschocher, Großzschocher, Knauthain-Kleeberg vorbei am Elsterstausee bis zum Zwenkauer See. Leider wurden keine Bemühungen seitens der Verantwortlichen Wasserwirtschaft gesehen den Auwald rechtzeitig zu fluten oder Wasserstände von Flüssen wie der Weissen Elster mit Hilfe der Seen im Tagebaugebiet nachhaltig zu erhöhen. Die Pegelstände und eine schonende Flutung des Leipziger Auwaldes hätte viele Dürreschäden gemildert, den Grundwasserspiegel besser gehalten und Feuchtgebiete samt den Flussauen geschont. Durch mittlerweile bedrohliche Flusspegel sind die Randbereiche und Ökosysteme gefährdet, nicht nur im Flussbereich oder Randbereichen. Viele Bäume und Stadtbäume sowie Büsche sind ausgetrocknet. Siehe Fotogalerie:

Biber machen vor wie es richtig geht. Feuchtgebiete wie Flusslandschaften, Flussauen, Auwald-Gebiete, flussnahe Biotope und Waldflüsse brauchen naturnahe Rückhaltebecken. Durch Verdrängung der Bieber und Biberbauten trocknen nun Flüsse aus. #Biberdamm #Holzdamm #naturnah #Staudamm

Es gibt massive und flexible Staumöglichkeiten, Staudämme sowie natürliche / naturnahe Lösungen - einfach mal die Biber fragen. Werden Nebenflüsse etwas angestaut können größere Flüsse auf überlebenswichtigen Niveau gehalten werden! Besonders wenn es viel geregnet hat kann wichtiges Regenwasser / Flusswasser rechtzeitig zurückgehalten werden, da braucht es keine großen Seen oder Wasserspeicher. Vieles kann über nachhaltige, etappen- bzw. stufenweises Rückstauen realisiert werden, mit Holz- oder Steindämmen.

Flusswasser sollte nun überall wo es gut geht angestaut, zurückgehalten bzw. rückgestaut werden. Kritische Pegelstände nicht ignorieren - besonders bei Feuchtgebieten, Flussauen und Mooren. Ökologische Desaster und Flussaustrocknung kann verhindert werden ! #Disaster #DRR #Flussaustrocknung #Flusssterben verhindern !

Wenn Nebenflüsse nachhaltig rückgestaut, können Mindestwasserstände aufrechterhalten und größere Flüsse im Notfall gespeist werden. Notfall-Staudämme bzw. Steinwälle mit Granit- oder Natursteinen sind auch nicht verkehrt. Damit können kleinere Nebenflüsse gerettet, somit dann auch größere Flüsse auf einem Niveau / Pegelstand gehalten werden!

Flusswasser sollte nun überall wo es gut geht angestaut, rückgehalten bzw. rückgestaut werden. Kritische Pegelstände sollten nicht ignoriert werden, besonders bei Feuchtgebieten, Flutungsgebieten und Mooren.

Nochmal, rettet "eure" Bäche und Flüsse bevor es zu spät ist. Viele Biber wurden leider verdrängt, natürliche Dämme zerstört, Flüsse begradigt und,..! Nun sehen wir alle die Folgen, ähnlich wir durch all die Trockenlegungen für Tagebaue und Teile der Landwirtschaft. #Artenrettung #Artenschutz #Biotope #Holzdämme #Flussrettung #Flusswasser #Regenwasser #Steindämme #Staudämme Jetzt!

Wenn verantwortliche Gemeinden bzw. Verantwortliche jetzt nicht handeln und das Austrocknen von Flüssen zulassen, riskieren sie je nach Region das Aussterben von vielen wichtigen Arten und Ökosystemen! Wird die Tage und Nächte nicht gehandelt wird es noch mehr Umweltkatastrophen in dieser Hinsicht geben. Das ist wie wissentlicher Ökozid oder fahrlässige Umweltzerstörung!

Die unglaubliche Gleichgültigkeit oder Ignoranz von so einigen Leuten ist Gift, es schadet und zerstört Natur bzw. Umwelt. Diese Art von Ignoranz tötet, viele sind mit Schuld am Menschen- und Artensterben. Wir reden hier von teilweise zugelassenen Desastern und Katastrophen! Genug Menschen hätten oder können handeln, gerade alle die es wissen... bevor es zu spät ist! #Disaster #DRR #Flussaustrocknung #Prävention #Umweltkatastrophen!

Mehr zu aktuellen Ereignissen und speziell zu der Dürre- und Klimaforschung sowie umfangreiche Artikel und Beiträge zum Klimanotstand hier auf den Projektseiten und auf den sozialen Seiten von Leipzig Palms und TrillionTrees.eu. - Stand 15.08.2022

Die Feuchtgebiete samt Auwälder bzw. Auenwälder, Feuchtwald, Feuchtbiotops- und Flussrettung mit Hilfe nachhaltiger Flutung aus Seen und Rückhaltebecken (auch an geeigneten Flussstellen) ist in einigen Regionen immer noch möglich. Verantwortliche der Wasserwirtschaft und für den Auwald in Leipzig und Region wurden mehrfach schriftlich über Beiträge im Internet und sogar persönlich über die Klimanotstands-Kampagne informiert, ebenso wie diverse Umweltorganisationen, etwa zur Ökofete im Clara-Zetkin-Park!

Viele verstehen den Ernst der Lage nicht. Ökosysteme in von Dürren betroffen Regionen stehen kurz vor dem kippen. Niedrigwasser, sinkende Flusspegel und Grundwasser sowie Tiefenaustrocknung haben Böden, Gewässer und Landschaften stark geschädigt. #Desaster #DRR #Landverödung

Umso länger die Dürre läuft umso mehr steigen die Risiken in diversen Bereichen, besonders im Bezug auf Brandrisiken und Waldbrände.

Updates folgen hier wöchentlich, im Notfall eventuell sogar täglich.

Climate Emergency and international call for more peacebuilding actions, climate adaptation and disaster risk reduction in Europe 2022

Urgent letter and article about climate change adaptation, civil protection, disaster preparedness, disaster risk reduction (DRR), environmental and mental health, freedom, fundamental and Human Rights!

Authorities, governments, local communities and people should be more concerned about saving rain, fresh or potable water for worst-case scenarios, such as extreme heat and drought. We have had a creeping or silent drought in Europe since March. If droughts continue and heat waves come, it can be a really serious worst-case scenario, especially a huge problem for health, mental health, and water security. Many cities do not realize the severity of the situation. After several inspections and inquiries, we have found that many urban areas are not well enough prepared. We scientists recommend speeding up preparations and hoping for the best that the summer will not be too dry or too hot. Contact your local authorities and the experts at the @GreeningDeserts-Networks and Trillion Trees Initiative for Europe, Africa, India and MENA region. If you need more information or advice on any of the above questions and issues.

The founder worked out an special fire and water protection project called Brandschutzkanister or Brandschutz-Kanister. It are water canisters you can use to reduce fire risks at home, work or even outside at risky locations. Means if there are corners or places very dry you can place the water canisters above and below, so in case of fires you will have fast water and if enough canisters are placed it if enough canisters are well placed, the fire may even extinguish itself. In German it is called Selbstauslöschung or Selbstlöschung. The good thing, you can use the canisters as chair, so the founder had the idea to develop the fire protection canister as nice product in future. If you want support the project development and help to push and share the development, the sustainable production and sharing in your community feel free to contact @greening deserts.com and @ greeningcamp.com! Have courage for real solidarity with all the endangered or threatened people who life in affected regions who are affected by the ongoing drought and upcoming heat. You can read much in the latest article „Drought in Germany and Europe severely affects monoculture forestry, industrial agriculture and population.“

It follows the urgent letter who was sent to thousands of international experts, hundreds of institutions and even organizations of EU and UN! These certain people should stop being silent or profiling. It costs us all important time that we do not have when it comes to the worst-case scenarios. Above all, politicians should get their act together now and work more with the public on disaster preparedness and other important measures. Above all, stop disrupting Greening Deserts projects, social work, developments and developers! You are only endangering and harming the people, the nation and yourselves in the end! It is simply embarrassing and a disgrace. Rather help build the Vertical Farming Startup and Urban Greening Camp so that we can save many of the endangered species (including humans). For this we are in an object where we could store countless canisters and other important things like the seat canisters. Watch some pictures below, more photos will be published if..

Climate Emergency and call for more international peacebuilding actions and peace speech to accelerate the peace process

Hello friends of humanity and nature,

This is a short info-email with some important advises. Don't ignore and misunderstand, it are useful information for us all.

Please support and share the urgent call, article and letter if you can. It depends also on you and affects us all - especially the poor or weak victims of the world who need more solidarity, too.

Always remember, over 800 million suffering by hunger and if so much parts of the world or media, people, societies only care or report so much about Ukraine.. and so less about other important issues - it's not proportionate! Many more will suffer, poor nations and people will feel forgotten. It's sad that so many ignore our advises and concerns or even block, disturb and harm the important humanitarian and peace work or projects. Seems that several people and interest groups don't really want true peace.

Read more on Greening Deserts project pages and social pages, such as how to sustainably and realistically reduce the risk of further crises, especially the increasing risk of a global food and world war crisis. The media, especially the news and mass media, have a big responsibility in this and many other important aspects - especially in relation to ethical and moral principles, international guidelines and laws. They must also pay attention to the effects, side effects, and consequences of their broadcasts and programs - especially taking more responsibility in avoiding too much fear, violence, and horror. All these media must take care of the mental or psychological health of their consumers and viewers and prevent harm, this should finally be regulated by law. It is not the problem of news reporting about war and all the relations and problems like propagandizing the war - no matter which side. The risks of to much hasty, risky and wrong actions can cause more conflicts, death, suffering and expand the war like we see since the early days. Certain media pushes these problematic actions of all the responsible actors or parties. Many international intellectuals warn of a third world war by being too aggressive and supplying too many weapons, especially heavy assault weapons. Many nations, serious organizations and institutions have concerns about the developments.

Greening Deserts is distancing from any unnecessary rearmament and critical weapon delivery who makes things much worse. The opinion and advise is very easy, do more for real defense, passive and strategic tactics with more armor, intelligent moving, shields And it makes more sense in general and in the long run to do for real peace-building instead of risky weapon deliveries who makes things worse. Greening Deserts community and founder condemns the war of aggression, any destruction of the environment and life is bad! Some media misunderstanding the true facts and real reality - it is serious and important to prevent the high world war risks by doing much more for more peace-building!

Support Greening Deserts, Trillion Trees Initiative and connected projects on global and social networks - especially our humanitarian, peace-building and species rescue initiative.

Concerns, opinions and statements of the founder of the Greening Deserts Trillion Trees Initiative on the current situation:

Since February, Greening Deserts have been calling for more health issues like mental health support, more peace speech(es), peace speech(es) and solidarity in all media - especially in advertising, mainstream and social media. Unfortunately, one can see that countless actions and demonstrations have not done much to maintain or restore peace - important aspects and awareness of certain backgrounds and causes are missing. The situation is getting worse and worse, as many of the problematic factors and multiplications, such as unnecessary provocations and sanctions, have driven the escalation spiral by many contributors. The media's complicity and responsibility plays a crucial role. Unfortunately, not much has happened in this regard to date 15-03-2022. This can be seen just by the hashtags like #UkraineRussiaWar and many similar problematic escalations, sanctions, pushing military armament or warmongering actions in various media. Certain interest groups, manipulated media, people and parties or politicians have even further escalated and worsened the situation - this is like poured oil on the fire. They have no foresight and consideration for the peoples of the world and people who will suffer considerably or even die under the said actions and sanctions - and perhaps have already died! This deadly boomerang effect is significantly underestimated as with the Corona(virus) or COVID-19 pandemic! It is once again the typical symptom fighting instead of root cause solutions and crisis prevention through sensible de-escalation diplomacy or language or real peace speech, disaster and conflict risk minimization, forward thinking action as well as sustainable foresight in so many essential areas - especially in ethical, humanitarian and social relation. We need more effective peace actions, peace speeches on all levels and less war speech or propagation of war in the digital or media space! By many of the hasty actions, provocations and escalations certainly many people have fallen ill and additionally died! Besides, the risk of a world war has increased enormously. If the world war and with it the nuclear war breaks out, this will be probably the last one!

More Important advises, comments, opinions and statements of Greening Deserts projects on social pages:

Children's Rights and Women's Rights are also Human Rights. Access to a healthy environment, declared a human right.

Climate, nature and environmental protection is also species protection as well as human protection!

@GreeningDeserts projects we are calling since February for more peace building communications and negotiations by less provocations,.. support de-escalation and peace diplomacy! #BuildPeace #Humanity #Peace #Solidarity #UniteNations #UN #StopWar #RussiaUkrainePeace #UkraineRussiaPeace #PeaceSpeech

Further pollution and heating of climate and environment by responsible industries and humans leads to more conflicts and crises! Telling these issues since years, offered solutions so many times.

More nations must continue with war de-escalation diplomatic, logic, reason, humanitarian and cooperation for peace building! Reasonable and strategic communication to #CreatePeace #Humanity #PeaceBuilding #PeaceProcess #Solidarity #StopWar #RussiaUkrainePeace #UkraineRussiaPeace

International women organizations unite for peace-building in Europe, Ukraine and Russia. Share more words and actions for #PeaceBuilding #UkraineRussiaPeace #RussiaUkrainePeace #PeaceBuilders #PeaceDays #PeaceProcess can #StopWar until April ! #BreakTheBias #WomensDay

Some important words for real peacebuilding: Peacemaking and peacekeeping women make for a safer world. #BreakTheBias #InternationalWomensDay #InternationalWomensDay2022 #WomensDay International #PeaceBuilding #PeaceMonth

The Greening Deserts and Trillion Trees Initiative's community supporting the #globalgreening and peace process in Europe, Russia and Ukraine. We humans and nature forces call for peace building! A peaceful end to the war is possible this month! #Peace #PeaceMonth #PeaceProcess #PeaceSpeech

The main problem in the world is the advancement or proliferation of war talk, issues and actions in digital, mental and real life. By so many thinking, talking or even acting too war-oriented and less peace-oriented the reality is also determined by it and war risks naturally increase - it is never the fault of one person or group alone. When talking about war, peace should not be forgotten! #peace education #peace speech #peace media?

A major problem in the world is too much war language, military propaganda in digital, mental and even real life. Too much war media and talk about war can lead to or fuel more conflict and war! Do you support #PeaceWork #PeaceSpeech #PeaceMedia?

Media that reports so much about war should also show alternatives and real sustainable peace solutions. All this hasty and violent media we have seen since February is not good for peace building and mental health - especially for the old, poor and vulnerable. This media is damaging the health of many people and should finally take responsibility. #ChildrensRights #MentalHealth #PeaceBuilding #PeaceSpeech

The parties and leaders of some European countries do not understand the seriousness of the situation and the coming consequences, as do many news media. First and foremost, emergency prevention, mental health and disaster risk reduction #DRR should be promoted more every day now - on all levels and especially in the media, news and talk shows! - 10-03-2022

There were several attacks on our pages and people, some help would be great - especially because of several Human Rights violations. To much violence and violent media is a major problem in these times.

It is sad that sharp criticism, inconvenient truth, logical opinions and charitable or humanitarian work isn't allowed on certain 'social networks' - we monitored and recorded many violations and dubious practices of censorship, shadow banning,.. and x-violations of social networks. With combinatorics, logic and reverse engineering you can proof a lot. The attacking, blocking, censorship or oppression of climate and species protectors, environmentalists, Human Rights and Children's Rights must be reduced and have consequences - no matter how big or famous companies or people are. Who protects the defenders and protectors?

Many questions to answer and problems to solve, we know it's not easy but it is possible if United Nations finally take it more serious.

Always remember, poverty reduction is no longer possible today without fighting corruption, or only with great difficulty - same for other global issues. It is now up to you as well. Please share and forward if possible. Every action counts in this regard. The call has been sent to thousands of institutions and organizations with some updates.

With best regards, your friend of nature. We -mankind- have not much time left to prevent the worst.

Constructive feedback and support is always welcome. Read more on Greening Deserts project pages.

Greening Deserts Trillion Trees Initiative Species Recuse Program and Vertical Farming in Urban Greening Camps

Europe's and the world's first vertical farming startup for threatened or endangered tree species as well as important crops or plantsdevelops further concepts for energy and resource-saving species conservation, climate and environmental protection. Botanical gardens, national parks and nature reserves are invited to join the Greening Deserts Species Rescue CES-RPP, Greening Campand the Trillion Trees Initiativeand related projects. The emergency program and projects to save species, restore biodiversity and ecosystems need international support. The goal is to save more than 300 tree species from extinction by 2025 - for example through professional tree breeding, seed storage, distribution and joint tree planting activities. Some international species protection, climate protection, nature conservation and environmental protection organizations have already showed their interest. We are looking forward to new partners in the future to master one of the biggest tasks and challenges of the decade. Reducing species extinction by mitigating its causes and promoting global biodiversity is at the forefront, also in urban regions and cities! With the Urban Greening Camp, the Urban Greening Networkfor healthier and greener cities was launched - many have followed the good example.

Species extinction, climate change, environmental degradation from monocultures, forestry and agriculture are increasingly evident. Droughts and heat waves have made many impacts and causes clearly visible. The problems with old bad habits or systems such as excessive deforestation, draining, pollution,and destruction by agriculture or monocultures in rainforests or similar ecosystems rich in biodiversity and crops are complex. Yet solutions can be very simple - as explained in these and other articles. New techniques, technologies, products or services are not always necessary, but can of course accelerate and / or improve sustainable developments. Greening Deserts has over the years presented good solutions to many of these world problems - such as really effective developments and sustainable solutions to stop deforestation by monocultures. Diverse concepts for desert greening, tree planting campaigns, urban greening, vertical agriculture and innovative project developments like the Greenhouse Shipshow great possibilities and potentials how to combine biodiversity conservation, ecosystem restoration, productive eco-agriculture and eco-forestry. Here are some ideas, methodical and sustainable thinking using the palm oil issue as an example. It are a few excerpts from the concept paper for the palm forest project Palmforest.org.

Stop ALL new palm oil plantations in rainforests or similar ecosystems with rich biodiversity, fauna and flora.

Attempt to convert palm oil plantations to more environmentally friendly habitats with greater biodiversity. Alternatively, replace or relocate to areas with no or very low biodiversity.

Establish ecological agroforestry, mixed afforestation or reforestation with trees, shrubs, crops, herbs, fruit and vegetable plants.

Move oil palm plantations to man-made deserts, drylands, wastelands and desert-like areas; In these regions, there not much damage to the environment and soils possible.

Incorporate soil- and water-improving techniques such as sustainable drip irrigation through solar desalination systems.

Continuous improvement and research of agrophotovoltaics, agroforestry, cleantech and greentech in the greening camps.

Supporting various biodiversity, conservation, cultural, and scientific projects in each region, such as where the camps are beginning to restore or expand ecosystems.

Promote environmental awareness and more sustainable consumption, reducing overproduction and overconsumption, especially of products that harm the environment, people and wildlife.

It is unrealistic to reduce the demand for palm oil on a large scale in the next few years and palm oil boycotts or sanctions can be problematic, especially to solve the main problems or causes, many good solutions have been elaborated. The points are not firmly decided or fixed resolutions, but suggestions and of course can be added to or improved.

The world does not really need more food production, but a better sharing, distribution and preservation of food by cooling, drying, pulverizing and processing of food waste around the expiration date - for example with new infrastructures, logistics and startups for food waste preservation. Also local or regional cabinets and preservation machines or facilities in food retail outlets could be established – similar like Norway's deposit return scheme for plastic bottles or similar plastic recycling machines! Current food sharing solutions are already quite good, but there is a lack of holistic solutions that solve the global supply chains, logistics or transport systems in connection with food waste preservation and food waste at expiry. The problems or solutions already start with the causes like overproduction, transport over long distances and environmental destruction by intensive agriculture. See, for example, monocultures and livestock or factory farming, as well as the excessive waste of food in supermarkets instead of preserving it, storing it and distributing it to the needy. A suggestion would be cooling and drying machines for perishable goods such as fish, meat, vegetables and fruit to make them durable before expiration. There are old tried-and-true methods for this, such as pulverization, cookies and chips - there are already vegetable chips, so why not make them from food waste. Retail itself, new startups and jobs could benefit from this innovation of direct preservation of "food waste", just before or after the expiration date. The respective countries or EU and UN could even promote this and regulate it accordingly! It is really time to reduce the global famine of over 800 million people and hundreds of millions of children through better preservation and distribution systems - especially since the world produces food for well over 10 billion people! The suggested lack of food is hypocritical and a big lie. There is enough energy, food and water for everyone worldwide. The artificial limitation, commercialization and denial of these resources in certain countries or regions is systematic and violates ethical, moral and humanitarian principles, rules and laws - such as international Children's and Human Rights.

Climate and environmental protection, nature conservation and species protection are also important issues in the climate crisis. The human-induced impacts of climate and environmental change, such as desertification, global warming and other extreme weather events can be reduced through a more balanced climate or weather system. Glaciers, ice sheets and reflective snow layers play an important role in this - as do large grasslands, wetlands and global forests of course. All the trees and forests in urban areas are also important, as is the coastal greening, marine conservation at the coasts – so like the protection of the lakes, rivers, seas, oceans and other waters. The Greening Deserts and the Trillion Trees Initiative, actions, campaigns and projects moved many nations, organizations and people to plant millions or even billions of trees! Some countries have followed the advice and announced that they will plant one or even several billion trees in the next few years. There is evidence of the advice and recommendations that have been sent to various ambassadors, ministers, institutions and organizations. In some cases, it is easy to see that direct action was taken after being contacted and communicated. Some initiatives and projects even have prominent imitators.

Further important statements, facts and opinions on the topic of climate crisis, nature and environmental protection Human impact on climate, environmental, natural and weather systems is significant. The excessive disruption, destruction and pollution of natural environmental systems and life forms has made the world what it is today! Certain industries, institutions, organizations, people and other responsible parties that have destroyed ecosystems and important parts of the environment and polluted the planet are also partly responsible for the extinction of countless species and the destruction of the biosphere. They have caused not only an unstable atmosphere, but also more toxins, greenhouse gases and water vapor. People should be aware of these true facts, logical arguments and reality and care more, learn from them and do much better. It is never too late to change and improve the world together as humanity in a sustainable way. Negative actions and impacts can be prevented or reduced by nations together. Destroyers and polluters are thus prevented or even stopped from causing further pollution and environmental destruction. They should comply with laws, policies and global development goals on their own of course. Climate change adaptation, disaster risk reduction, education, resilience and understanding of the true causes or circumstances should be a priority - as should the regular revision and updating of the global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Further opinions and statements:

For general understanding, many Change Games and Greening Deserts projects are environmental, educational, scientific, social and truly sustainable developments. Most of them were developed by the founder in his spare time. Many are or were non-commercial and private projects. The Greening Deserts and the Trillion Trees Initiative are still private initiatives and can be transformed into organizations or startups at any time.

Many conservationists, environmentalists, climate and nature activists want to protect species, some even the really important and endangered species. That is commendable and there could be many more of these activists. But it is much more important to save the really critically endangered species and protect them at the same time! Still hardly anyone understands how important species rescue is and how unimportant species protection of unimportant species is - at least in comparison and relation to the rapid species extinction of the truly threatened or critically endangered species. Every gardener is a species conservationist. What good does it do the biosphere, nature and mankind if we save the few species we hear about every day - such as the elephant, tiger, panda and co.. On the other hand, countless, much more important species are dying out every day, including many keystone species on which many other species depend. Unfortunately, there is also a lack of awareness and understanding of the biosphere in terms of biomass and species diversity. All life forms in organic soils, grasslands, wetlands, and global forests, as well as water bodies, which even significantly regulate climate and weather systems, are the main component of the biosphere!

If humans really want to prevent species extinction, they must maintain healthy ecosystems and restore important habitats and landscapes, especially wetlands and real forests. This will allow the atmosphere, biosphere and all parts of nature to recover, naturally regenerate and better self-regulate. The connection between species recovery, species protection, climate protection, environmental protection and biodiversity, biosphere and ecosystem services is often not seen accurately. To this day, many people do not realize that climate protection is also species protection and thus contributes significantly to the preservation of the biosphere - because the biosphere consists of species, i.e. biomass. One of the best ways to protect and save species is to preserve the important habitats of these species and to restore ecosystems through greening, reforestation and species protection camps or similar projects on a global scale. The founder and initiator of Greening Deserts has explained these important issues in several articles and offered innovative solutions with global initiatives or international projects such as the Trillion Trees Initiative.

Another important issue is the lack of Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) on so many levels. One example is flood protection through nature-based solutions. It is logical that, for example, after drought years, dry and water-repellent soils make erosion and flooding even more extreme. Another problem is the lack of trees and wetlands that have been destroyed. The problem in Germany is and has been the lack of disaster preparedness and management for extreme weather events such as droughts and floods, DRR should be an established system worldwide. Urban flood protection through additional water reservoirs, waterways and underground reservoirs can also help reduce these risks - similar to the concept of sponge cities. Another problem is the lack of trees and wetlands, which have been destroyed primarily by extreme drainage for agriculture and strip mines. Many important ecosystems such as wetlands have been destroyed as a result, including wet forests, marshes, swamps, and floodplains. Facts and scientific advice on how to protect against land degradation, erosion and prevent flooding through disaster preparedness, nature-based solutions and sustainable water management can be found on the Greening Deserts project pages.

Many people from the climate movement, in governments, and even parts of industry have followed and been inspired by Greening Deserts' articles and projects - especially the articles, master theses and projects. On the topic of soil improvement and the global greening, a lot of experiences have been gained and many experts have been exchanged about meaningful actions. Since 2017, Greening Deserts recommends desert greening with hemp, desert bamboo and thistles, which loosen the soil to great depths as well as improve the soil overall. Appropriate ground covers or special grasses also protect new tree plantings from drying out. Green manure plants such as special field beans and hemp can quickly build humus-rich topsoil. This even works in drylands and wastelands! Read more in Greening Deserts articles "Hemp toilet paper can reduce deforestation, climate change and global warming" and "Hemp cultivation in open-cast mines for sustainable soil improvement and organic farming with hemp".

Climate, nature and environmental protection is also species protection.

All suffering is caused by ignorance. People inflict pain on others when they selfishly seek their own happiness or satisfaction.

Love and compassion are the foundations for world peace - at all levels.

The way to change others' minds is with affection, not anger.

Peace does not mean an absence of conflicts; differences will always be there. Peace means solving these differences through peaceful means; through dialogue, education, knowledge; and through humane ways. - Dalai Lama

Greening Deserts projects have inspired and moved many millions of people to do something for their environment and others who need greener and healthier habitats.

Greening Camps can reduce deforestation, land degradation, desertification and global warming by global greening, conservation as well as promotion of biodiversity, ecosystem restoration and ecological reforestation!

Human ignorance will kill us and all life forms on planet Earth. The only way to prevent this dilemma is more awareness, education, environmental consciousness, respect and tolerance or even understanding.

Mankind does not need to travel to the desert planet Mars, if desertification continues at the current rate, we will have a desert planet Earth in 100 years!

Urban Greening is also Urban Cooling, so Global Greening is Global Cooling. - Oliver Caplikas

Ignorance, the root and the stem of every evil. - Plato

Ignorance, hatred and greed are killing nature. - Masanobu Fukuoka

Ignorance leads to fear, fear leads to hatred, and hatred leads to violence. This is the equation. - Ibn Rushd

It is better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war. - Miyamoto Musashi

Lasting peace cannot be prepared by threats but only by an honest attempt to establish mutual trust.

Peace cannot be kept by force; it can only be achieved by understanding. - Albert Einstein

The highest form of ignorance is when you reject something you know absolutely nothing about. - Dr. Wayne Dyer

The journey of every ignorant and obedient society always ends in the same place: In the desert. - Mehmet Murat Ildan

We can never achieve peace in the outside world until we make peace with ourselves.

Where ignorance is our master, there is no possibility of real peace. - Dalai Lama

International emergency program for species rescue, biodiversity conservation and ecosystem restoration

The initiator of the Greening Deserts Species Rescue and Protection Program CES-RPP for international species protection and biodiversity calls on the European Union and the responsible Commission to finally support the emergency program for the rescue and recovery of species. It is about endangered species which could become extinct tomorrow and especially about the keystone species on which many other important species depend. Only a few days ago a German nature conservation association followed the call and also demands an emergency programv - it would be good to coordinate in this important matter. Nature and environmental protection organizations such as BUND have been invited several times to the species rescue and protection program. Until today, unfortunately, there was no concrete feedback or response. The emergency program and projects for species rescue, biodiversity and ecosystem restoration calls for international support.

Background on the important species conservation program and projects for species recovery and biodiversity

Greening Deserts founder has been calling for international institutions and organizations to support the CES-RPP emergency program for global species rescue, recovery and protection since 2019. Countless departments, employees and organizations of the European Union as well as UN have been informed several times and invited by eMail, hundreds have confirmed the call and the infomail. On the pages of Greening Deserts and the Trillion Trees Initiative you can read a lot of information about the special species rescue program and the species protection projects, including side projects like Afforestation.org, GreenRingAfrica.com, Hemp-Paper.org, PalmPaper.org, RiceStrawPaper.com,... Rice straw paper can reduce greenhouse emissions and environmental pollution significantly, otherwise farmers burn it or it rots and forms methane. Hemp plantscan improve the biodiversity and soil – it's good for bees and other insects! These alternative papers can reduce deforestation and supporting reforestation with improved soils. You can read more about improvement of soils with hemp on Greening Deserts project pages. Support a more sustainable paper, packaging and green building industry!

Extra pages were registered for the global species rescue program, for the German-speaking area Artenrettung.com, for Europe SpeciesProtection.euand internationally SpeciesRescue.com! The sites were registered in 2020 and 2021. It is about the economic and scientific establishment of species rescue on a global scale. Some international species protection, climate protection, nature conservation and environmental protection organizations have already registered their interest. We are looking forward to new partners in the future to jointly master one of the biggest tasks and challenges for the decade - the reduction of species extinction by mitigating the causes and by promoting global biodiversity - also in urban regions and cities! The Urban Greening Campproject started RooftopGreening.comand the Urban Greening Networkfor healthier and greener cities, many followed the good example. In August the founder published a world innovation for urban greening with energy storage raised beds, the project development is called Energy Storage Tree.

Germany's first vertical farming startupfor threatened and endangered tree species and important crops is developing further concepts for resource-saving species conservation. The diversity of species is in the foreground and as far as possible, different varieties of a species are cultivated to achieve genetic diversity. Botanical gardens, biotopes, national parks and nature reserves are invited to join the Greening Deserts Species Protection Program CESRPP and the related species conservation projects. We aim to save over 300 tree species from extinction by 2025, such as through professional tree breeding and distribution.

Important facts, opinions and statements

The following is important information on species conservation, climate protection, climate change and environmental protection in the climate crisis. It is not primarily about the human-caused part of "climate change" and global warming. It is about the global human impact or influcence on climate, environmental, natural and weather systems. The excessive disturbance or destruction and pollution of the natural environmental systems and life forms!

Certain industries like agriculture, heavy industry, chemical, coal, concrete, steel, arms and war industries which destroyed ecosystems and important parts of the environment and polluted the planet are also responsible for the extinction of species and the destruction of the biosphere. They caused not only an unstable atmosphere, but also more toxins, greenhouse gases and water vapor. They are partly responsible for certain harmful climate changes and mass extinction. Many scientists try to partially deny or excuse this, but it is what it is.., but it is how it is. By the way, facts, real truth or reality will be written by us all humans together. Means the whole humanity, opinions and collective wisdom represent the real reality not just a single opinion or study. Humans should aware and care more about these true facts, logical arguments and real truth! The fact that we are living in a hot age and a time of many climate and weather extremes, means that humanity and all life forms should make the best of it and better adapt. The best way is to promote adaptation, education, resilience and understanding of the circumstances. It is reasonable to live and work with nature, not against it!

Many conservationists, climate, nature, and environmental activists want to protect species, some even the really important and endangered species. This is commendable and there could be many more of these activists. But it is much more important to save the really critically endangered species and to protect them at the same time! Today, still almost nobody understands how important the species rescue and how unimportant the species protection of unimportant species is - at least in comparison and in relation to the rapid species extinction of really threatened or critically endangered species. Each gardener is a protector of species. What is the use for the biosphere, nature and mankind to save the few species we hear about every day. On the other hand, countless much more important species are dying out every day, including many keystone species on which many other species depend. Unfortunately, there is also a lack of awareness and understanding of the biosphere in relation to the biomass and diversity of species. Just look, organic soils, grasslands, wetlands and global forests who regulate even the climate and weather systems are the main part of the biodsphere!

If mankind prevents species extinction by preserving healthy ecosystems and restoring important habitats and landscapes, or if natural regeneration processes are more supported, the atmosphere and biosphere could recover, regenerate naturally and regulate itself. The connection between species recovery, species protection, climate protection, environmental protection and biodiversity, biosphere and ecosystem services is often not seen clearly. Until today, many people do not understand that climate protection is also species protection and thus contributes significantly to the preservation of the biosphere. One of the best ways to protect and save species is to preserve the important habitats of these species and to do ecosystem restoration with greening, reforestation species protection camps on a global level. Greening Deserts founder and initiator explained these important issues in several articles and offered innovative solutions with many global initiatives or international projects.

Another thing is the missing issue or topic of Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) on so many levels. One example in the case of flood prevention by nature-based solutions. It's logic that after such drought years, dry and water repellent soils make erosions and floods more extreme. Another problem are the missing trees and wetlands were destroyed. The problem in Germany is and was the missing disaster risk reduction and disaster management in case of extreme weather events like droughts and floods, DRR should be a worldwide established system. Even urban flood prevention by extra water sheds, water ways and underground reservoirs can help to reduce these risks. Another problem is the lack of trees and wetlands that have been destroyed - especially by extreme drainage for agriculture and open pit mines. Many important ecosystems such as wetlands have been destroyed as a result, including floodplains, bogs, fens and wet forests. Facts and scientific advice on flood protection and prevention with disaster risk reduction, nature-based solutions and sustainable water management you can find on Greening Deserts project pages.

If humanity understands all these relations there will be maybe a chance of get back a certain balance, harmony or peace -- to live peacefull with nature and each other. I call it the harmonic coexistence, if you lived my life during the last ten years you would understand what I mean. To all the worldwide scientific colleages, it is no alarmism, it is pure reality and truth, it are serious advises, concerns and of course personal opinions what's going on. You can experience and research yourself during many years or decades.

Many people of the climate movement, governments and even parts of the industry followed and got inspired by Greening Deserts articles and projects – especially the master works or plans. Read for example the master work for a faster and more efficient coal exit in coal regions, it was published years before there was a Coal Commission in Germany! Published many good papers and solutions for the biodiversity and climate crisis, the green building and energy transition during the years, long before there was the actual climate movement or Fridays for Future. Even the green ring logo was designed for the Green Ring Movement and Trillion Trees Initiative before FFF started. Just to mention the history and origins of some ideas and works. At the end we at Greening Deserts are happy that so many people got inspired and followed the good examples. Desert greening with desert bamboo and thistles loosens and improves the soil. Green manure plants such as special field beans and hemp can quickly build up humus-rich topsoils. This even works in drylands and wastelands! Read more about in the article 'Hemp toilet paper can reduce deforestation, climate change and global warming' and 'Hemp cultivation in open-cast mines for sustainable soil improvement and organic farming with hemp'.

Climate protection, nature conservation and environmental protection is also species protection.

Greening Camps can reduce deforestation, land degradation, desertification and global warming through global greening, conservation as well as biodiversity enhancement, ecosystem restoration and ecological reforestation!

Humanity don't need to travel to desert planet Mars, if the desertification continues in the actual rate we will have a desert planet Earth in 100 years!

Urban Greening is also Urban Cooling, thus is Global Greening Global Cooling.

We need more environmental awareness and sustainability, sustainable living and sustainable working, in all fields or areas. We need to create a world of understanding, acceptance, respect, tolerance, compassion and consciousness.- Oliver Gediminas Caplikas

Greening Deserts species protection camps for critically endangered species and ecosystem restoration

Greening Deserts Critically Endangered Species Research and Protection Program (CES-RPP) started an extra project for endangered tree species to focus on the most important issue of global biodiversity conservation and establish more biodiversity in habitats and forests worldwide. This will also promote many other ecosystems, and stabilize as well as improve the atmosphere or air, biosphere, global climate and water cycle. The contribution of trees to the improvement of soil, life, air and water quality should be clear to everyone. There is as much life in a handful of soil from a rainforest as in hundreds of soccer fields, but not so much in fields and meadows. It depends also on the history and vegetation. The main focus of the special species protection project for critically endangered tree species is the building of special seed storage facilities (boxes and cabinets) and other innovative solutions in various areas. The exchange and sharing of experiences are particularly important. With the Urban Greening Camp we can store and preserve seeds professionally. In the field of Indoor Gardening and Vertical Farming we can cultivate many species of trees, especially for the European and Mediterranean regions. We can share seeds and plants with botanical gardens and professional nurseries around the world. Numerous international institutions, organizations, universities, biodiversity and plant scientists, and tree and forest specialists have already been informed about many of these aspects and projects in 2020.

This announcement and information of the new Greening Deserts project for critically endangered species can be shared worldwide. The project title is 1001+ Critically Endangered Tree Species Seed Storage and Tree Cultivation Project. The Trillion Trees Initiative will help to share the trees and seeds worldwide in the future, especially in regions where more biodiversity is needed or trees have become extinct or very rare. Some of the other Greening Deserts projects and special programs can also help establish many of the endangered tree species on which many other species depend. These special biodiversity conservation, ecosystem restoration, environmental greening, ecological reforestation and species protection projects can save millions of life forms worldwide. Healthy ecosystems like forests are habitat for countless organisms and can save many endangered insects, fungi and microbes. That's why Greening Deserts species conservation projects will focus on biodiversity forests, drylands, grasslands and wetlands. Urban greening and biodiversity in cities will be supported by the upcoming greening, research and species protection camps.

Species conservationists, tree experts, botanists, tree growers, and all friends of nature are invited to join the project, for example by exchanging useful information or sharing constructive feedback and resources. Of course, other experts and scientists who are able to support the project can also join. Together with the CES-RPP, we can set a goal to recultivate and replant forests, typical tree landscapes, and regions with critically endangered tree species and key plant species worldwide. If we focus on cultivating and exchanging seedlings around the world, we can save many tree species from extinction. If all goes well, we can lift the critically endangered status of many trees and truly save them by cultivating plants and sharing seeds. Other important tasks are to show natural alternatives to pesticides, and to promote nature-based solutions and permaculture.

Botanical gardens, nurseries, tree experts, forestry companies and tree-related businesses should pay more attention to these factors. One big cause of the biodiversity loss and mass mortality is deforestation and too many monocultures. This issue is not only about the few established tree species in forestry, it is also about many other important plants and keystone species. With the endangered tree species that we want to cultivate and share worldwide, thousands of other species can be saved and protected. These trees and plants may even bring back other species that were thought to be extinct. Biodiverse forests, meadows and fields are the key to counteracting global species extinction on a large scale. Many of the critically endangered tree species play a particularly important role. On the pages of Greening Deserts and affiliated projects, you can read more about the real problems and good solutions in almost all areas, especially how to act in a truly efficient and sustainable way. Environmental satellites, GIS systems, and satellite imagery of global vegetation can also help select the right trees for the right areas. Historical archives and plant databases can be used to find suitable tree species for those regions with low biodiversity, like in Europe and North Africa, where few tree species exist and many have been lost or forgotten—especially in relation to the approximately 60,000 tree species, of which about 10,000 are endangered and 1400 are critically endangered. That's why Greening Deserts has set the goal of saving the most endangered tree species, while working together with interested species protection organizations, tree nurseries, botanical gardens and institutions in this area. It is not only about biodiversity hotspots, new forests and a few more tree species, but about many other plants, animals and ecosystems that used to have a greater biodiversity. Biodiversity in cities and urban regions is more important than many people think. Ecosystem and landscape experts can help to find good places for greening and reforestation, or even for completely new forests, such as in man-made deserts or urban concrete jungles. Urban greening and urban forests will play an increasingly important role over time, especially in relation to the issues of biodiversity, global greening, health and the urban cooling aspect.

Some cities are now already up to four degrees hotter than in the old days, i.e. the 1.5 or 2 degree target has long been exceeded in some regions! Many people around the world have died as a result of the droughts and heat waves of recent years. The passive effects of the climate crisis, such as environmental or natural disasters and pandemics are underestimated, especially when it comes to poverty. Experts estimate that over 100 million people will fall into poverty during the actual crises. All the more reason why we need holistic solutions to the climate crisis and global solidarity with these poor, sick and weak people. Healthy ecosystems and a healthy environment are the basis for the health of all life forms. Adapting to climate change and strengthening cultures is important not only for humans but for animal and plant species. Only together with nature we can overcome the crises. Nature-based solutions play an increasingly important role. One can see the Corona crisis as part of the climate crisis.

Climate protection and environmental protection is also species protection—and therefore human protection. Species recovery, species conservation, and biodiversity with species protection camps and special protection programs like the Trillion Trees Initiative can reduce global species extinction with appropriate international support. The camps primarily serve to restore near-natural ecosystems. Global greening can accelerate the peace-building process and reduce climate change effects like global warming and air pollution. Environmental awareness, ethical and social principles, sustainable production and work, and human rights and indigenous rights are very important for future development. For years, we have been informing organizations and institutions about Greening Deserts projects. Requests for funding and support of these important developments and projects have been sent several times.

The global extinction of species, lack of biodiversity and species protection or too little species rescue in many areas also increasingly affects human health. The current crisis and drought years have clearly shown everyone how quickly ecosystems can collapse or become unbalanced. The important role of missing tree species, especially in tree-poor regions of Europe and the Mediterranean, is greatly underestimated. Several hundred other species can depend on each individual tree species! Since many thousands of tree species are critically endangered and only rarely present, hundreds of thousands of species that depend on these trees are missing. This is one reason behind the extinction of numerous species. Trees fulfill important functions and are key elements of ecosystems and cycles. Climate and weather systems are also significantly influenced and stabilized by trees and forests, as well as all associated plants.

One unfortunately still hears many limited arguments or opinions in agriculture and forestry. Agroforestry, food forests, flowering trees and more trees with fruits for animals and humans are possible to combine more sustainable agriculture and ecological forestry! AI, aquaponics, cleantech, hydroponics, greentech, permaculture techniques and vertical farming, scientific developments or achievements can also help improve all these areas or sectors. Many of the long discussed conflicts are really unnecessary, especially the land use conflict. Think about all the space in the air, underground, underwater and on waters. A lot of things are possible at the same time if one is creative, willing to compromise and understanding. Often there is simply a lack of awareness and will. If all nations plant a few billion trees during the next years we could reach the goal of a trillion trees extra for planet Earth easily. If the most of the humans plant a few hundred trees in their life the humanity could plant another trillion trees in just one generation – it could be so easy if all humans would act together. In the meanwhile we will push the trillion trees initiatives with good actions, examples and projects. Many people and organizations were informed about the Greening Deserts sustainable developments, innovative ideas and outstanding projects.

Here are some of the main projects: Afforestation.org, Artenschutzcamp, Desert Bamboo Africa, Climate Adaption EU, Ecosystem Restoration Network, Eichenpark, Energy Storage Park, Greening Coasts, Greening Drones, Greenhouse Ship, Green Ring Africa, Great Green Wall North Africa, Hemp Papers, LE Palms, Palm Coffee, Recycling Ship, Reforestation Europe, Rice Straw Paper, Rooftop Greening, Seeding Balloon, School Forests, Species Protection Europe, Transparent Solar, Trillion Trees Africa, Trillion Trees Foundation, Urban Greening Network,.. tbc..

The first Urban Greening Camp will be located in Leipzig, Germany. The state of Saxony is a relatively central region in Europe. Effective logistics, sustainable working and sustainable packaging as well as shipping should not be a problem. The founder and initiator Oliver Gediminas Caplikas is working hard on the concepts and projects, at the moment he prepares a new location and the launch of a new startup. The startup project mainly deals with palms and palm products. More about the new project development in the next article and press release. Many interesting developments, information and projects on the topics have been published in scientific networks and on various platforms during the last years. Read more on Greening Deserts official project pages.

Constructive feedback and real support is always welcome. Feel free to contact and to connect by the social networks or other official channels. Sustainable joint ventures, investments, partnerships and sponsorships are always welcome.

Cleantech Greentech Research and Greening Camps

Greening Deserts sustainable projects like the Greening Camps want to establish innovative developments like Agrophotovoltaik and Energy Storage Parks, Greening Drones and Seeding Balloons, Transparent Solar and Vertical Greenhouses. With the first Greening Camp and adequate fundings all the sustainable developments could finally be accelerated and developed worldwide. The projects were founded and initiated by the Greening Deserts founder. He informed institutions, organisations and even invited governments to join these projects and initiatives, as well as to the Greenhouse Ship, Plastic Fishing and Trillion Trees Initiative. If for example each nation plants approx 2 billion trees, we the humanity could reach the goal to plant one trillion trees very fast and we could really cool down the planet on a large scale. It would also protect and save countless species which are endangered by extinction. There are many campaigns and initiatives in this relation and we all are connected to reach the global goals faster.

The Greening Camp keyplants like bamboo, beans, hemp and sunflowers will improve the soils, underground water and waters. Drylands and wastelands can be turned into fertile lands easily. Hemp improves the soils in just a few years, after this other soil improving plants, environmental friendly crops and trees can be planted. Hemp will be just a side product of the forestation or greening processes, it can be delivered to hemp product producers like the hemp paper branch and hemp wood industry. The Greening Camps will produce millions of tons of hemp. All would win at the end, the poor people or regions, the degraded lands or soils, the forestry, paper and wood industry - even big wood paper consumers like the book, newspaper and packaging industry. Hemp papers and hemp carton packages will save a lot of forests or trees and will reduce deforestation significantly.

Since the last two years the founder informed hundreds of publishers, media companies and paper producers about these facts. Greening Deserts Camp projects and products like Hemp Papers have really big potential to reduce deforestation, land degradation, pollution and wasting resources worldwide. Each camp will have a recycling center and workshop, especially for creative plastic waste recycling and upcycling. Biowaste Management, Greenhouse Management and Water Management will improve soils, air and water quality in all camp areas. Millions of new jobs and whole new markets will be created.

Other main goals in this relation are to bring back biodiversity, typical and rare plants of all concerned region. Seed banks or stores and special greenhouses, botanical gardens or similar habitats for the most endangered species will be established at each camp. Climate protection, conservation, environmental protection and species protection are also main tasks of the camps. Of course, we can not do everything. We will exchange and share a lot with other similar institutions, organisation and projects - like with national parks, game reserves or wildlife preserves.

The Greening Camps will establish green spots, healthy environments and platforms for all regions really need better soils, clean air and fresh water. The camps will be platforms for cleantech, climate protection, conservation, culture, education, environmental protection, greentech and science. All camps will have a library, lounge and media room. Bigger camps will get an Energy Storage Park and even could be expanded to a kind of campus or science park. We exchanged with a lot of institutions about it and many liked the projects. With active, constructive and financial support by the official institutions the camps can be build very fast. We have not much time to reduce desertification, global warming, human-made climate change effects and extreme weather before the biosphere will collapse - responsible bodies and institutions need to act immediately. Many camps could be build in 2020, the case the projects will finally be supported by the African Union, EU and UN. Even refugee camps could have a greening camp area. The founder combined and researched since years much more innovative developments, technics, techniques and products. You can check them on the official project pages.

The planet earth can be cooled with more diverse forests, green and natural landscapes worldwide - especially urban regions which heat up very much each year. Bamboo, hemp wood, rice straw and other sustainable innovative building materials and fuels could reduce deforestation, man-made climate changes and global warming worldwide. The future of real sustainable cities, the energy transition and transport sector is: AI and Cleantech, Energy Efficiency, Green Building, Green IT, Greentech, Sustainable Architecture, Sustainable Living, Sustainable Production, Sustainable Consumption, Sustainable Transport, Sustainable Working, Sustainable Agriculture, Organic Farming, Ecological Forestry - especially in relation to Community Gardening, Hydroponics, Permaculture, Urban Agriculture, Rooftop Greening and Vertical Farming. Not forget to mention Sustainable Aviation, Sustainable Shipping and Sustainable Tourism. All of these areas or topics will also play an important role at the Urban Greening Camps. First camps in this relation are planned for European cities or urban areas and for open pit terrains or surface mining landscapes. Another important issue is the improvement of rainwater usage, establishment of water tanks and reservoirs in urban areas. Good examples you can see in cities like Chicago, Toronto and New York who use water tanks on the roofs. Such water reservoirs are not just good for sustainable irrigation and water supply in dry or hot times, they are also good in emergencies like house fires.

Short Summary:

Greening Deserts projects are cultural, economic, educational, scientific, social and sustainable projects in the field of horticulture, hydroponics, sustainable agriculture and ecological forestry - but also in the fields of clean technology, green technologies and renewable energy such as solar, water and wind energy. Electricity access, availability and reliability together with energy efficiency will be optimized at the greening and research camps. The focus is on education, sustainable developments and scientific research. Conservation, environmental protection and species protection plays a very important role, too. Main goals of the projects are to reduce deforestation, desertification, pollution and global warming on a large scale. Goals are also to improve the energy and food security, to offer innovative management, ecosystem and greening services. The projects will reform the agriculture and forestry with Ecofarming, Ecoforestry and Permaculture methods, technics and techniques. The projects can include each region and nation in the process, especially in relation to Cleantech, Greentech, environmental protection, a real Sustainable Infrastructure and Sustainable Investments - Green Finance and Sustainable Finance. To manage and to share better necessary finances a special Greening Fund will be established together with international financial institutions.

It is a real chance for the world, especially for Africa and Europe to reach faster the Climate Goals and more Sustainable Development Goals together with Greening Deserts international and innovative developments. The future vision is to establish a Greening Campus on all continents and several camps for all regions who need ecological, environmental and sustainable development services, especially in relation to ecosystem restoration and environmental services. Each constructive feedback and real active support is always welcome!

Climate protection, nature conservation and environmental protection is also species protection. We need more environmental awareness and sustainability, sustainable living and sustainable working, in all fields or areas. We need to create a world of understanding, acceptance, respect, tolerance, compassion and consciousness. - Oliver Gediminas Caplikas

Keynote and Update X:

The maybe most important issue, topic or point is the problem with the daily extinction of the real endangered species and wrong focus or awareness in relation to endangered species in general and most endangered species who really need to be saved - and to reduce or prevent the ongoing mass extinction really effective. It are mainly the most endangered species and keystone species which must be cared more than well known and relative protected species like elephants, hippos, lions, pandas, whales, etc.. Many of the countless programs and resources for mentioned species should be used for the most endanged and keystone species. It makes no sense to protect more and more the well know species and every day dying or even extinct so many other important species. AI, Deep Learning, Supercomputers and intelligent computing systems should be used primarely to find all the most endanged and keystone species who are recorded. Search algorithms and organisations like ACM, MA, Google, Research Gate and Wolfram Alpha should support this actively. International institutions and nations should unite in this relation. It is maybe the most important issue of the world!

We have not much time to establish hundreds of camps, greenhouses and new special areas for this special species protection tasks - on land and at sea - for the most endangered species of this world. The reality is, if the most important species or keystone species like bees extinct or reach a certain low population level (MVP), humanity and much other species depending on them will die out, too. If these most important food or dependency chains and bridges collapse, even if it are relative small or partwise unknown keystone species, it can cause cascade effects similar like in the case of the permafrost problem. No panic, but every day and action in this relation counts. The only way is to unite, to focus on this problem and find fastest solutions. My tipp work out keystone species and priority lists for all the expert workgroups and worldwide institutions like universities and schools - not just in relation to climate protection, environmental or species protection. The media and public should also report mainly about this.

Don't ignore it. Forward and share if you can, it affects us all.

Greening Deserts Cleantech Greentech and Greening Camps

Since 2017 Greening Deserts sustainable projects like the Greening Camps want to establish innovative developments like Agrophotovoltaik and Energy Storage Parks, Greening Drones and Seeding Balloons, Transparent Solar and Vertical Greenhouses. With the first Greening Camp and adequate fundings all the sustainable developments could finally be accelerated and developed worldwide. The projects were founded and initiated by the Greening Deserts founder Oliver Gediminas Caplikas. He informed institutions, organisations and even invited governments to join these projects and initiatives, as well as the Greenhouse Ship, Plastic Fishing and Trillion Trees Initiative. If for example each nation plants approx 2 billion trees, we the humanity could reach the goal to plant one trillion trees very fast and we could really cool down the planet on a large scale. It would also protect and save countless species which are endangered by extinction. There are many campaigns and initiatives in this relation and we all are connected to reach the global goals faster. We exchanged with a lot of institutions about it and many liked that idea.

The founder combined and researched since years much more innovative developments, technics, techniques and products. You can check them on the official project pages. The Greening Camps will establish green spots, healthy environments and platforms for all regions really need better soils, clean air and fresh water. The camps will be platforms for education, cleantech, culture, greentech and science. All camps will have a library, lounge and media room. Bigger camps will get an Energy Storage Park and even could be expanded to a kind of campus or science park. We exchanged with a lot of institutions about it and many liked the projects. With active, constructive and financial support by the official institutions the camps can be build very fast. We have not much time to reduce desertification, global warming, human-made climate change effects and extreme weather before the biosphere will collapse – responsible bodies and institutions need to act immediately. Many camps could be build in 2020, the case the projects will finally be supported by the African Union, EU and UN. Even refugee camps could have a greening camp area.

Short Summary:

Greening Deserts projects are cultural, educational, economic, social, scientific and sustainable projects in the field of horticulture, hydroculture, sustainable agriculture and ecological forestry - but also in the fields of clean technology (CleanTech), green technologies (GreenTech) and renewable energy such as solar, water and wind energy. Electricity access, availability and reliability together with energy efficiency will be optimized at the greening and research camps. The focus is on education, sustainable developments and scientific research. Conservation and environmental protection plays a very important role, too. Main goals of the projects are to reduce deforestation, desertification, pollution and global warming on a large scale. Goals are also to improve the energy and food security, to offer innovative management, ecosystem and greening services. The projects will reform the agriculture and forestry with ecofarming, ecoforestry and permaculture methods, technics and techniques. The projects can include each region and nation in the process, especially in relation to cleantech, greentech, environmental protection, a real sustainable infrastructure and sustainable investments – Green Finance and Sustainable Finance. To manage and to share better necessary finances a special Greening Fund will be established together with international financial institutions.

Each constructive feedback and real active support is always welcome!
