Today we explore the largest artificial rivers in the world, under construction in deserts, cities and across countries. We explore a number of these mega projects such as - The Kachi Canal project Pakistan, Great Man-Made River of Libya, Afghanistan's Kosh Tepa Canal, China's South-to-North Water Diversion Project, The artificial river of Saudia Arabia, New Delta Project OF EGYPT

    This project costed life of the man who engineered futuristic thinking in the desert land of Libya.
  • @domtweed7323
    The video needs to address two things better: -Politics. For example, NATO bombed the Libyan water network, and Balochistan has an ongoing insurgency. How those connect to water issues isn't explained. -Water supply: Does Pakistan/Afghanistan actually have enough water for its plan? What's its strategy to maintain adequate supply?

    All countries need to make man made rivers. Egyptians were smart.

    Plants and trees must be found that can withstand the salinity of sea water so that desert countries overlooking salty seas can benefit. By planting these plants and trees as wood, oils, or fish farms with plant feed on salty water, a solution must be found to plant the desert with salty water. To transform the regions into viable areas with sea ports to revive the desert in the Arabian Peninsula and North Africa

    Personally, I prefer DESALINATION SEA WATER instead of tapping underground water and ATMOSPHERIC WATER GENERATOR system for these DESERT COUNTRIES. ALSO, CHANNELING sea water go deep inland desert to COOL DOWN high desert temperature like what EGYPT is doing with it's depression land.

    Oh Man, You use a very good optimistic supporting language, I liked your way. many only focus on defaults

    Most fascinating of all was the homemade paddleboat at the end.😃
  • @yaphinchin1589
    👍 great effort...prosperity assured in near future when follow thru are regulated n managed accordingly as required. 🎉🎉 🙏🙏
  • @Jamshedac-gf4bh
    Wow powerful learning with lots of relevant information very good work congratulations
  • @DJRenee
    1:56 They definitely need to be catching and diverting all of this flood water. Especially if it is flowing South.....
  • @damiengitt
    great video but try to include the Metric system more often throughout the video
  • @RUHappyATM
    Regarding the Libyan aquifer, what happens when it's completely drained?
  • @JS-jh4cy
    There's no enough people living in the desert there to piss in the canal to bring the water levels up to counter reaction to rapis evaporation
  • @daji3801
    Yes it looks interesting. Which country Sir.
  • @jontalbot1
    Why keep calling them artificial rivers when there is a perfectly suitable shorter word- canals? And this does not address issues in respect of gradient (and hence flow) and changes in level - which is why you have to have locks and in some cases, aqueducts and boat lifts ( elevator).
  • @cliffwoodbury5319
    so where is all the salt going (saudi arabia) because the Red Sea isn't all that wide. Wouldn't it be better to pull the water from the Indian Ocean and having shafts that go far into the ocean to be released so it can be absorbed back into the ocean!!!
