Pump sea water up into large shallow reservoirs on the western edge of the
Sahara.  If you get tricky the pumping can be done with tidal action, so it
is passive.  All that heat and dry air would evaporate the water, raising
the humidity and lowering the temperature.  Rainfall would be increased
further east, downwind of the reservoirs.
