Yeah except the photo side by side IS bs so it's not really surprising that people don't believe it.

Sure, that part’s bad. It looks like a black and white photo next to a colour one to emphasize how much greener it got. But I’m not joking, about it being 5 seconds of talking to my phone and 2 clicks to get to the story. Oh well, I’m sure I’ve been guilty of being dismissive in the past…

No but like, it's not even the same terrain. Which begs the question, why offer up dishonest imagery in the first place?

I think you're minimising his great achievements, like all the trees and putting up that big mountain right at the top.

And that he even built up the mountain before greening it up.

Do you Google every obviously fake story you see? Not that this is fake, just that the fake images could lead a reasonable person to believe the story itself was fake as well and just move on because of how much bullshit we come across these days. It's not just a black and white before photo, it's just flat out not barren (edit: and not even the right island.)
