Q:
O que significa to squeeze greens?
A:
Ah. "Greens" refers to a green vegetable, usually leafy, like spinach.
Something that you usually do to spinach in recipes is to blanch it, which means to briefly cook it in boiling water. Once you do that, though, it becomes full of water, so you often need to squeeze it out afterwards (i.e. hold it in your hand and squeeze).
Which is to say, you squeeze the greens.

Q:
Qual é a diferença entre There are a few greens in the desert. e There are few greens in the desert. e There is not much greenery in the desert ?
A:
"few" is used when describing a very small amount of something, like in an instance when that thing isn't enough, or adequate, like, "there are few books available, which can mean that the books aren't adequate for everybody.
"a few" can be said to be "just enough," for example, "there are a few men who can make it across the desert," meaning, there are just enough men to cross the desert.
as is usually the case in english, there is a lot of nuance in this situation, but these are just the bare basics.
so, in the examples you gave, i'd say that "there are a few greens in the desert" is more appropriate, if the message you want to pass across is, "don't lose hope; the desert still has some vegetation in it :)"
