Study recommendations: establishing sewage treatment plants with the latest technology in the Egyptian deserts, and providing a pure water source that is used in the cultivation of desert backs to expand the cultivation of forests and benefit from the economic value of its timber, increasing investments in the field of forest planting and cooperating with investors, thus achieving great economic value and providing job opportunities for young people
