How are deserts important?

Importance

To humans, deserts appear dead and lifeless - often described as a wasteland. But they are a valuable natural resource, both as a habitat for certain types of plant and animal life, and for their energy potential. Two-thirds of the world's crude oil is found by drilling in deserts, and they hold great potential for solar and wind energy, too.
