    The Sahara desert plays a vital role in the ecosystem of the Atlantic Ocean. It’s why there is so much life in that region compared to the Pacific.

      I’m sure it won’t be entirely converted. However, what “so much life” are you talking about ??? Desert <> Mediterranean sea

        Yeah the Atlantic and the Sahara are massively intertwined. I think that the other commentor is missing is that the expansion of the desert is actually negatively effecting the ocean now (ie the sunlight % drop from the sand haze)
