I wonder what ecosystem Africa could develop in the sahara if it was shaded by 50% solar cells. What could grow under a roof of power collection to build Afrofuturism IRL
BUILD a thousand square miles of solar over the Sahara.
@Npars01 @primonatura I really hope China does good by them. Not sure how many strings are attached to the major investments done by the CCP.

China's investments in Africa have a long history of not doing well...
A huge gap in cultural expectations.

American racism is inherently an exploitive extractive process.
Africa has seen one empire after another use its bigotry to justify its conduct.
