Answer to Question 1

The first step is to halt exploitation immediately. Other steps include planting trees of an appropriate
type, water resource management, development of ecologically viable windbreaks, and stabilizing
dunes.



Answer to Question 2

A disturbing finding has been the identification of pesticides, herbicides, viruses, bacteria, and fungi in
windblown dust. African dust in the Caribbean, for example, contains microbes that are about 25
plant pathogens and 10 human pathogens.
