Groasis waterboxx can help transform most of the deserts into forests

It can foster sapling trees even in harsh conditions (e.g. El Niño season)

The Groasis waterboxx was tested for 3 years in the Sahara desert and trees that were planted during the summer with the waterbox survived well, but the test without the device saw 90% of those trees die, even with weekly watering.
