In ancient Nordic times, trees were sacred to Odin. Cut down more than 3 trees in a row, you'd be hung as a sacrifice at an Odin temple. "Hanging" was a sacred death. Nordic countries don't do that anymore but there are rules: You can't cut down more than 5 trees in a row. You must plant twice as many trees as you cut. Terraces must be made for those young trees (well described in the post by Daniel van Bose here). I think there are other rules as well. In Scandinavian countries, trees hold the mountains up.
Just make terraces everywhere on ranch land and desert. These will catch the infrequent rains and let them soak into the ground. This should occur within a few days to avoid losses by evaporation. Bill Mollison, the originator of permaculture, calls these swales. Each swale is laid out on the contour of the land. In the bottom of each swale, mulch can be placed to help with the infiltration of water from the swale. This controls erosion and conserves water and organic matter. Crops and even trees can be planted around these swales in many cases. No need for injection wells.

Yep, that's correct!
@@jamessang5027 Yes it's correct, we need the CCP to do this for us!
The more water put into the ground will make it rain more frequently in the future
