Agafay, Morocco

Given enough water, date palms and olive trees capture the energy of the sun and turn it into edible sugars and oils. Here, a small barrage along an ephemeral stream keeps water from flowing away and gives it time to sink into the ground, setting up conditions for oasis agriculture. See the dog? He may serve as the local police force. [2017]
