It makes no sense to leave it a desert when it can be made greener. Especially when the desertification is relatively recent geologically speaking.
Why preserve the arid landscape?
Especially when as little as two hundred years ago, the beaver were exterminated in many areas, the ponds they created drained. The landscapes of water features were drained. Cattle killed off the existing flora. And what we were left with was dry landscapes with no natural depressions to hold water.
This is true of large swaths of Texas and the Desert Southwest.
And all it takes is manpower to return these areas to more fertile landscapes.
As little as a few thousand years ago the southwest was lush and green. Why does the current desert landscape need preserving? I'm not sold and there is literally nothing I could think of that would sway my opinion.

Give the food companies a 3 month window to change their recipes.
Then fine them millions of dollars a day until they change. And ban the poisonous ingredients on day one of the new administration.
RFK, Jr. and Trump should do a press release about it. Get the ball rolling.
He should use this as an opportunity to shape the media.
No CNN, MSNBC, ABC, etc. Unless the prior three months contained each weeks daily mentions of each of the items correcting fake news from the past.
Include each instance a fake news item was mentioned on those networks, then demand 3x the number of mentions as it being a fake story on the network's own programming. Example: assuming CNN mentioned the "Russia collusion" story 1,000 times over a period of 3 years, they have to mention it 3,000 times over the same time-frame; in the same time-slots.
Failure to be on the road to redemption means you don't get a white house press pass. Road to redemption meaning they have published the required retraction stories every week for the last 3 months. Miss a week? No white house press pass and the timer resets.
Ukraine should enshrine neutrality in their Constitution to ensure peace with Russia. Becoming a Switzerland of Eastern Europe.
Additionally the residents of the Donbass should vote to leave Ukraine. Simple majority to leave Ukraine. With a five year period of right to return to Ukraine/Donbass for all current citizens of the Ukraine.
And the United States should leave NATO.
The continual deficit funding is a feature of the federal reserve. It won't end until we end the federal reserve.
