Sahara Forest plan: man-made oasis in Qatar desert

A 10,000 square meters man-made oasis will open in Qatar this year. The system consists of seawater-based greenhouses, solar power, evaporative hedges and ponds, and it is inspired by a camel's nostrils. Solar power generates energy to pump water throughout the structure. The evaporative hedges provide humidity and shelter for plants. Source: Daily Mail
