    What?!

    Is that what you think happened to the Sarrah desert?

    It’s on the same 21k year rotation it’s been on for 8 million years…

    It’s been happening long before humans, and will keep happening long after humans.

    If you mean any other desert, I honestly would love an example that’s not a couple acres fucked over by modern mono culture

      You’ve clearly never heard of the dust bowl. This is exactly what happened

        The dust bowl was because they tilled fields during dry seasons…

        Aka sustained droughts.

        They just kept tilling it, and the top soil literally just blew away.

        That doesn’t have anything to do with crop rotation buddy, it just doesn’t

        It’s barely tangentially related
