'Forgotten' water harvesting system transforms 'barren wasteland' into thriving farmland.
The Great Green Wall initiative began in 2007 to keep the Sahara Desert from encroaching on the rest of Africa .
The U.N. World Food Programme ( WFP ) and local villagers teamed up to regreen the area, bringing back agriculture, improving the economy of the people who live there.
The Great Green Wall provides hope for recovering other land that many people might write off as useless or barren.
As climate change continues to alter the Earth 's landscape, we'll need to keep working together both locally and globally to find solutions.
