Saudi Arabia is very rich, why don t they clean up the desert?

Saudi Arabia has a large land area, but the population is not large, the population is concentrated, which is convenient for national management. The environment in the Middle East is not very peaceful, and the desert can be used as a barrier and a strategic buffer place, which is beneficial to national defense and security. Saudi Arabia sells oil, has money in its hands, the well-being of the people is high, the country has a sense of superiority and cohesion, the desert is difficult to govern, and the sound of throwing money cannot be heard, and Saudi Arabia attaches very little importance to this aspect.

In addition, this has something to do with culture, the merit is in the contemporary, the benefit is in the future, and the understanding and thinking of the Saudis are different from ours!

Because they don't want to waste money on such meaningless things, and the investment cost is huge, they won't do it.

It is very difficult to control the desert because it is formed by the natural environment, and even if you have money, you can't restore it, so if you want to restore the desert, it has nothing to do with money.

Desert management refers to improving the desert environment through human intervention to slow down or stop the process of desertification. In the past few decades, desert management has received extensive attention and practice in some countries and regions, including China. However, in recent years, desert governance has been questioned and reflected on for several reasons:

1.Poor desert management: Some desert management projects are not working well and may even have some negative impacts.

For example, planting trees can lead to overuse of water resources, leading to land degradation and ecological degradation. 2.Desert remediation costs are high:

Desert management requires a lot of human, material and financial resources, and the cost is high. In areas with relatively weak economic conditions, desert management is difficult. 3.

Ecosystem complexity: The complexity of desert ecosystems makes governance difficult. Once there is a deviation in governance, it may bring more serious consequences, such as destroying the ecological balance and affecting the stability of the ecosystem.

In summary, desert governance is no longer the main way to solve the problem of desertification. Now it is more advisable to adopt sustainable development methods such as ecological protection and rational use of land to slow down the process of desertification.

The reasons why the Saudis have money are as follows:

The reason why Saudi Arabia is so rich is because of one thing, and that is oil. Known as the "oil kingdom", Saudi Arabia is currently the country with the second largest oil reserves in the world, after the South American country of Venezuela. The Gulf countries, led by Saudi Arabia, have become the world's main suppliers of oil resources.

At present, Saudi Arabia has proven oil reserves of more than 50 billion tons, accounting for about 16% of the current global oil reserves. In addition, Saudi Arabia is also the world's third largest producer, second only to the United States and Russia in terms of production. According to statistics, nearly 90% of Saudi Arabia's annual income comes from oil.

As early as the 70s of the last century, Saudi Arabia has become one of the countries with the highest per capita national income in the world with oil revenues.

Policy support

1. Each shop must employ at least one Saudi, and the salary is very high, and the recent new policy is that only Saudis can be used for supermarket cashiers.

2. All people who come to Saudi Arabia to do business must cooperate with locals to open a company in order to operate, in fact, although it is a company jointly opened, many Saudis basically do not participate in the operation of the company, only take profits.

3. As long as you are related to the Saudi royal family, you can receive living expenses every month, if you are a core member of Saudi Arabia, the wealth is immeasurable, you must know that Saudi Arabia's oil is in the hands of the royal family, which is equivalent to holding Saudi Arabia's wealth code in your hands.

Saudi Arabia is located in the Middle East, with a tropical desert climate. So it's very difficult to manage the desert. The deserts of Saudi Arabia are rich in mineral resources.

Because it is very difficult to control the desert and requires a huge amount of capital investment, it is not necessary to control the desert.

Because Saudi Arabia itself has a tropical desert climate, the climate cannot be changed, and it is useless to manage the desert.

Desert governance is aimed at the ecological restoration and maintenance of arid and semi-arid areas, and there have been actions to advocate and implement desert governance in the past, such as desertification control in the "Three Norths" region of China, which have made important contributions to alleviating environmental degradation and maintaining the ecological environment. However, as people's understanding of the natural environment and ecological problems gradually deepens, they also become more and more aware that natural ecology is generally interdependent and balanced, and human intervention in it sometimes has some unexpected effects and consequences. Therefore, the current ideas and methods of desert management are gradually changing and adjusting, becoming more advocating ecological restoration and conservation, focusing on preventing environmental degradation from the source, and advocating natural restoration and nature protection.

In conclusion, desert governance is still an important area, but governance methods and concepts are constantly evolving and developing to better protect the natural environment and ecological balance.
