Forests in KSA:

I really hope that the reforestation and protection projects will succeed. I am a big fan of nature and agriculture. Desertification is a huge challenge for much of the world and especially Arabia which once not that long ago (a few millennia) was mostly tropical.

Rice production in Eastern Province. Slowly dying unfortunately.

Prayer time:

The vast and mighty Rub' al-Khali desert which is another world altogether. Believe it or not but even to this very day people roam and live in its sands. There are water sources but they are very sparse. I find it amazing that people can/could even survive in such an extremely harsh environment. A testament to human adaptability.



Also for those interested in agriculture like I am, this project is worth taking a look at.

That man behind this project is brilliant. Well done.
