Facts about Deserts

When we listen a work ‘Deserts’, the first thing which comes in the mind is a place without 
plants and human. Deserts can be said as a dry place with sand dunes for miles and miles with a scorching sun burning the sand. One interesting fact about desert is that it is spreaded over 1/5th part of the world’s land surface. It is the area where the average rainfall is less than 250mm of rain per year. Sometimes the annual rainfall is noted to 20mm which leads to intense dryness for long years. One of the famous deserts in North Africa is Sahara Desert. This desert is the hottest place in the world with temperature of 58 C in the shade where as in the night temperature goes very low below the freezing point (YPTE, n.d.).


How many people Die in the Deserts:


Thousands of people have lost their life in the deserts. It is sometimes the fault of people as they underestimate the deserts or overestimate their own capabilities. This place is not to prove your strength but a proper strategy should be applied to save ourselves from these deadly deserts (NPS, 2012). The biggest reason for the deaths occurred is due to the car getting stuck in the deserts. This is the problem which is giving a deadly conclusion. If something can be done to stop the car getting stuck in the deserts, many life can be saved and deserts will be only meant for a vacation and not as it is known now, a deadly place.
