Abstract
Arid land ecosystems, although providing a wide array of goods and services, are not always recognized as fully as other terrestrial ecosystems on the planet. Most previous works gave a picture of arid land as being barren. Therefore, these have resulted in discouraging both national and international policy makers in including arid land initiatives into their programs. The present article identifies some certain goods and services that arid lands can offer which are vital to human survival.
Keywords: Arid Region, Nature, Humans, Gifts.
