The UAE has opened the world’s largest solar power plant, 38 kilometers south of Abu Dhabi. It covers over 20 square kilometers and features 4 million solar panels with a capacity of 2 gigawatts, providing energy for over 160,000 households and eliminating 2.4 million tons of CO2 emissions every year. The project, which was built by China, is part of its larger Belt and Road Initiative, a global infrastructure megaproject.

Israel is considering building a 250 kilometer long canal across itself, uniting the Gulf of Aqaba and the Mediterranean Sea, providing an alternative to the Suez Canal. The canal would be 200 meters wide and 50 meters deep, with a cost of 55 billion dollars, but would enrage Egypt and given its current war with Hamas in Palestine, is not on its priority list.

Russia is building an Arctic Silk Road, featuring new railways, highways, pipelines, ice ships and ports, including a 100 billion dollar mega port on the Taymyr Peninsula. It will connect Europe to Asia in only 19 days, compared to 48 days via the Suez Canal. However, it will impact the arctic ecosystem, has frustrated the United States and will be used to transport 100 million tons of oil by 2030, intensifying climate change.

Mexico is planning a 557 hectare forest city near Cancun, that will house 130,000 inhabitants and feature 7.5 million plants. It will have canals, plant-covered skyscrapers, sensors, urban farms, solar panels and research centers, helping clean up the surrounding tourism-impacted region and absorbing 116,000 tons of CO2 every year, serving as a model sustainable city for the world.

France is constructing a 107 kilometer long canal to Germany, that will unite the Rhine river and the ports of Rotterdam and Antwerp in the Netherlands and Belgium, with the Seine river and Paris in France. It will feature 6 locks and a 1.3 kilometer long canal bridge, boosting barge traffic and positively impacting the environment, but with a cost of 5 billion euros.

Egypt has a plan to build a 55 kilometer long canal from the Mediterranean Sea to the Qattara Depression, flooding the desert into an 18,000 square kilometer hypersaline lake, while generating hydropower. Eventually, the water would then evaporate, leaving behind a ten meter thick salt pan. The project would generate jobs and provide clean energy, but would cost billions.

There is a proposal to build a tunnel across the Bering Strait, uniting Russia and the US. It would stretch 85 kilometers across the Diomede islands, providing the first physical link between Asia and North America, boosting economic activity, trade and cooperation. However, it would require billions in additional infrastructure, Russia and the US use different rail gauges and the current political landscape is not ideal.
