I assume I shouldn’t label this as OC.
Been to Morocco a couple of times. Zoom in on the photo
The amount of dumped rubbish is quite frankly fucking shameful. There’s a sea of plastic bags and coke bottles everywhere to the point they’re blowing all over the Sahara too
It could be such an amazing tourist spot, being so close to Europe, but the locals treat it like a giant rubbish dump. It’s such a shame
I wonder how much faster plastics break down on sand vs in the ocean… if it is faster. And does it drop below the size of a microplastic in sand.
Look at that cute biocrust!
The view from the top of those dunes. I went there in the beginning of this year, would absolutely recommend it!
Thanks, it works as a direct link on Boost, so I didn’t notice. Any hints on how best to share direct image links (also outside of imgur) would be appreciated.
Is it hard work to walk on that kind of sand?
My calves have never hurt more in my life, it was insanely hard to climb the dune. But we rode dromedaries out there, not that it’s that far.
what’s the difference between dromedaries and camels?
Wow! I would love to see that someday! Thanks for sharing.
Why wait? Just click his link.
Correction: that’s the edge of the Sahara for now.
I suppose that’s true about anything on a constantly changing planet, but it’s definitely going to get dryer the further south you go with global warming.
And north as well. Every county in the state of Massachusetts is currently rated as being in a critical drought right now.
Open world game biomes.
Right? It’s like Minecraft or something! I thought it would be some sort of gradual buildup.
The scrubland that the photo is taken from is the gradual buildup between the Conglian Rainforest and the Sahara.

In Morocco?
This is definitely Merzouga in eastern Morocco.
Morock on! I would love to toboggan down those sick dunes.
Tight.
Bruh, me and my cousin once flopped on a plabdoe on the flavored side of the rocket shlim. He was all, “noooooo!” and I was all, “yoooooo!”
Sickest slides and slices I ever encountered. Slip pops were ruffin bro! I’d be buggin in the slop if I had a buggy.
I’m so sorry. :p

Why is the sand green?
Biocrust! You have some in the US too:
