Desert Sand Dunes Landscape Photography

Deserts are increasingly seen as sources for solar energy. The Negev Desert and the surrounding area, including the Arava Valley, are the sunniest parts of Israel and little of this land is arable, which is why it has become the center of the Israeli solar industry. David Faiman, a world expert on solar energy, feels the energy needs of a country like Israel could be met by building solar energy plants in the Negev. Faiman also feels the technology now exists to supply all of the world's electricity needs with 10% of the Sahara. Solel has nine fields of solar collectors in the Mojave Desert of California. It recently signed a contract to build the Mojave Solar Park, which will be the world's largest solar generating plant.
Human life in deserts
A desert is a hostile, potentially deadly environment for unprepared humans. In hot deserts, high temperatures cause rapid loss of water due to sweating, and the absence of water sources with which to replenish it can result in dehydration and death within a few days. In addition, unprotected humans are also at risk from heatstroke.
