The reliance on monoculture forests has led to ecological fragility, with disease outbreaks devastating large areas of planted trees. Critics argue that the project may exacerbate water scarcity and disrupt local ecosystems. Despite these concerns, the initiative has shown some positive results, including increased forest cover and reduced sandstorm frequency. As it progresses towards its 2050 completion date, the Great Green Wall remains a controversial yet fascinating experiment in environmental engineering, highlighting both the potential and pitfalls of ambitious ecological interventions.
