Australia Filled the Desert With THIS Instead of Planting Trees — 4 Years Later,Nobody Expected THIS

Australia spent over a century fighting a hidden disaster, its farmland turning to salt from the ground up, and the obvious fix of planting nearly a billion trees only made things worse. So the country tried something that sounds impossible, raising ocean fish, prawns, and shrimp in ponds out in the dry interior. In this video you'll find out why the soil is so salty in the first place, why the trees died standing in wet ground, and the strange chemistry secret that kept the fish alive once everyone assumed salt water was just salt water. It's a story about turning a poison into a resource, and rethinking what it really means to solve a problem.
