That Saudi. The plan there seems to be to sell off all the oil, and then have the royal family decamp to a more northern latitude with their harems while the rest of the population cooks to death.
They know what is coming, though you’ll note the writers challenge the specific crediting.
Of course, they also think that “hard times create strong men” bullshit is from 2016 so
Idk
Point is the Saudi royals are fully aware that, if nothing else, the wells will eventually run dry so everyone slowing the green transition is short sighted regardless.
There are ways to make deserts, eh, more livable. Various kinds of mosses, correct usage of water for feeding plants (to reduce sandstorms), and solar farms there occupy territory both not in huge demand and use some of that excess energy.
That’s not what’s happening now, but the technologies have been tried successfully and work. I like shitting on Israel for their moral standing (the opposite to that, I mean), but their approaches to managing deserts do work, and they are not too wasteful with water.
