A WAPON AGAINSTGLOBAL WARMING
INNOVATIVE GREEN-BELT-POLITICS
IN SOUTH-EUROPE AND TURKEY
TO STOP DESERTIFICATIONThe process of Global Warming is quasi irresistible , therefore we must actnow. Recent Forest-Fire-Catastrophes in Portugal, Spain, Greece and Turkeyare beginning to motivate Governments , Communities and Non-Governmantal- Organisations to rethink strategies , aiming the implantationof innovative green-belt-politics , to stop the process of latentdesertification.
JATROPHA-EXPERIMENT IN LUXOR
In the desert of Egypt near Luxor a group of international cientists madestudies about more than 30 desert-trees, to identify a specie with adequatecharacteristic to survive in desert regions. The winner was the oil-bearing treeJATROPHA CURCAS. Jatropha is a tree with deep roots , drought-resistent and

DRY-LAND
JATROPHA CURCAS. Jatropha is a tree with deep roots , drought-resistent andable to survive with brakish water. This jatropha-plantation near Luxor, usingwater from o sewage-plant really demonstrated high yield pro year, reachingabout 3.000 liters of plant-oil .
Based on the result of this experimental plantation research-groups are developing concepts to meliorate the yield of this wild specie , which needssome more genetical studies. The team of desert-research in the Jacob Blaustein Institute in Israel is just researching the genome of desert-treeswith deep roots.
It would be interesting fore the biofdiesel-industry to receive soon seedlingsof jatropha curcas , with melioration of the deep-root-system, inoculatingcharacteristics of some other desert-trees like pistachio or argan-tree, withelevated condition to create deep tap-roots. By this way we can makegreat plantations in wasteland or dry-regions like caatinga or cerrado in Brazilor even in the borderland in the south of Turkey near the frontier with Syria.
NECESSITY OF AN INTERNATIONAL TASK-FORCE
The Government of Turkey must convocate an international Task-Force to develop a national MEGA-PROGRAM JATROPHA, like the Mega-Programa
Jatropha of the Brasilian Association of the Biodiesel-Industry ABIODIESEL.

WITH OIL-BEARING TREES
STRATEGICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF ATURKISH JATROPHA-PROGRAM
REGIONAL PRODUCTION OF JATROPHA-DIESELBRINGS ENERGY-AUTONOMY
The Region between the Taurus-Mountains and the Frontier with Syria is just a district with cultivation of olives. The countrymen of this region are able to diversify , able to plant also oilbearing trees for the production ofbiodiesel, to help by this way, to increase a local energy-autonomy, avoiding an expensive import of fossil petroleum.
CREATION OF EMPLOYMENT AND INCOMEIN REMOTE REGIONS
The creation of nurseries and great plantations will increase regional working-power and meliorate the income of local familar agriculture . By thisway we can avoid migration from remote regions.
EMPLOYMENT AND INCOME
INCREASE OF WATER
way we can avoid migration from remote regions.
REVITALISATION OF WASTELANDCOMBATE OF GLOBAL WARMING
The generation of extensive areas with the clouding of the hot and dryground can help to reduce the temperature of microrregions and will be animportant contribution , to downsize global warming.
INCREASE OF WATER QUANTITY IN DRY AREASWITH DEEP-ROOT TREES
Jatropha, Jojoba , Pongamia are species with deep roots , producing a more permeable land, with increase of water-retention , creating less drought anda better climate –situation.
MORE PRODUCTIVITY WITH CULTURE-MIX
Plantations in form of green fences will avoid erosion and create goodconditions for a crop-mix , avoiding competion between DISH and TANK. Jatropha , Jojoba and Pongamia are durable perma-cultures with lifetimebeween 50 and 150 years.
CREATION OF LUCRATIVE PERMACULTURE CAN PUSH REVITALISATION-PROGRAMS
Politics of revitalisation of wasteland often are suffering boycott, becausewith lack of profit nobody will participate in ecological projects.
The Governments of States with interest, to push the bioenergy-production, need to cooperate with university-research, to find out an optimized conceptand masterplan for a lucrative mixture of oil-bearing trees and plantation-regulations , to avoid great areas of monoculture for the industry ofbiocombustibles worldwide. With a good mix of oil-bearing trees we can solve this task.

JACOB BLAUSTEIN INSTITUT OF DESERT RESEARCH
STUDIES THE GNOM OF DESERT-TREES
Gen-Technology is able to criate green belts , to stop the desert. The life of millions of people is endangered , if we are not able to live together with the danger of drought in regions with few water.In the middle of the Negev-Desert the Jacab Blaustein Institut is making advanced research to study the charteristics of desert-plants and trees, even the metabolic engineering of micro-algae like cyanobacterias.
HOW TO TRANSFORM THE GNOM OF OIL-BEARING TREES LIKE JATROPHA , CREATING
DEEP TAP-ROOTS ?
SEMI-ARID REGIONS NEAR MOUNTAINS HAVE ALWAYS A LOT OF GROUND-WATER , BUT THE FARMING NEEDS IN THE BEGINNING ARTIFICIAL IRRIGATION. PERMACULTURES WITH DEEP-ROOTS CAN SURVIVE IN THE SEMI-DESERT.
PISTACHIO-TREE NEAR THE INSTITUT
BIOTECHNOLOGY OF PLANTS AND TREES OF DESERT-REGIONS
The scientists in Bersheva / Israel are making studies about the genome of different trees, with deap roots and with high lifetime .
The hard conditions of survival in desert-regions is leading to a strong selection of species and only the best adapted plants in the desert will resiste . These plants and trees are developping especial genetic characteristics , to subsiste with stress, strong solar irradiation, extrem heat, long periods of dryness and saliniferous soils .
Near the Jacob Blaustein Institut exist um pistachio-tree, more than 300 years old. Cientist began to decrypt the genetical code of this pistachio. They discovered a gene , responsible for the stress-resistance of this tree and detected it in the pullulate. They called the enzyme with the name " Dehydrin" . With this information began a lot of research. Mapping this Dehydrin-Gen they resolved, to transplant this genetical information in other plants. By this way other species are able to survive better in deserts or semi-arid regions. This innovation allows , to produce food in dry regions or to melhorate the yield of oil-bearing trees, like jatropha, jojoba or pongamia, enabeling these species , to survive in dry regions and to produce plantoil with higher yield. By this way semi-arid regions can participate in strategies against global warming, permitting great plantations of lucrative permacultures in the Sahel, in the Brazilian Cerrado or in the Sertão.

HOW TO TRANSFER TECHNOLGY FOR A FUTURE
JATROPHA – PILOT-PROJECT IN TURKEY
The Turkish Goverment and the Association ALBIYOBIR need to organize in a 5 Year-Program a nationalMEGA-PROJECT JATROPHA , aiming with priority the Region of the South of Turkey, near the frontier with Syria, forming a PUBLIC-PRIVATE-PARTNERSHIP ( Companies, Cooperatives and Research-Insitutions, with help of anInternational Consultant-Team). Important is the future cooperation with Germany, Israel and Brazil.Turkey can realize this enterprise in a few years. Jatropha needs 4 years to produce. The lifetime of Jatropha: 50 years , of Jojoba : 150 years. In Permaculture-Farming we can develop a crop-mix, to avoid monoculture.
