The King Salman bin Abdulaziz Royal Reserve Development Authority (KSRNR) and the National Center for Vegetation Cover Development and Combating Desertification (NCVC) planted one million seedlings of 13 local wild plant species, which the center produced and supplied to the reserve, SPA reported.
These plants will contribute to producing oxygen, absorbing tons of carbon dioxide, increase the vegetation cover, and combat sand encroachment.
KSRNR is the largest nature reserve in Saudi Arabia. It covers 130,000 km², and is known for its clean nature, geographic and heritage diversity, and rare monuments.
It consists of three primary conservation areas: Khunfah, Tubaiq, and Harrat Al-Harra.
NCVC is working on protecting the vegetation cover in the Kingdom and developing capabilities to anticipate and mitigate the impact of drought, in line with the Kingdom's Vision 2030.

Britain’s Princess Beatrice is pregnant with her second child, Buckingham Palace announced Tuesday.
The place said 36-year-old Beatrice and her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi “are very pleased to announce that they are expecting their second child together in early spring.”
The baby will be a sibling for 8-year-old Wolfie – Mapello Mozzi’s son from a previous relationship — and the couple's 3-year-old daughter Sienna, The Associated Press reported.
Buckingham Palace said King Charles III has been informed “and both families are delighted with the news.”
Beatrice, who is ninth in the line of succession to the British throne, is the elder daughter of Prince Andrew and his ex-wife, Sarah, Duchess of York.
She married millionaire property tycoon Mapelli Mozzi in July 2020 in a private wedding ceremony at the Royal Chapel of All Saints at Royal Lodge, Windsor.
