According to the latest statistics, China has made significant progress in desert afforestation and management over the past few years. Specifically, till 2023, China completed afforestation covering approximately 2.424 million acres, improved grassland through planting grass on about 2.653 million acres, and successfully treated desertified and rocky desertification land covering approximately 1.156 million acres.
If the footage is from 2014, which is 10 years ago, I wonder how it looks today. You should make a follow up video about it in 2024, it'd be very interesting.
Based on the lumber that is being exported by China from areas restored during the green wall project not very well. Most of the trees seem to have a higher rate of insect and disease infestation compared to trees produce in other areas . They also have shown higher signs of stresses related to lack of adequate water and nutrients
Chinese is the only race fight against the desert restlessly and with some level of sustainable success. Thanks to those involved this great and meaningful job
Well it seems to be quite the assumption to say they are the only ones.. you can find examples from other nationalities on videos from this very channel, for both cases
The Chinese are failing miserably. Corruption is rampant, and prohjects fail long before they are even completed. Many projects are based on "the look of things" rather than a deep understanding of reclamation/restoration. Bribes and communist ideology over common sense also hampers success. The Loess Plateau has been the only long term success, and the current leader messed that too...

The CCP has been continuously smeared by the west media, and even the CCP's breathing is portrayed as wrong. Under such persistent smear campaigns, it's a miracle if ordinary western people can form an objective view of the CCP or China.
It amazes me how we can't enjoy video's like this without someone in comments relating it back to politics, without any kind of source or just outright jealous that this country is doing something about a environmental problem. Let us celebrate these achievements of building greenwalls / reforestation wherever it's happening , because in the end it will benefit the local people and YOU in broader sense as citizen of this planet we all live on.

I just recently visited China. They are very environmentally conscious. All the bikes are electric. The temperature of the rooms in offices and shopping centres is kept at 29 Celsius. They're amazing.
Umm… they’re not? All the bikes are electric, but they overproduce them/seize them from their owners and dump them in the middle of the woods. Also they catch fire extremely easily. The buildings are kept at higher temperatures because people can’t afford the increasing electricity prices and are cutting costs. Also don’t forget the coal power plants being built on mass and the dumping of pollutants directly into farmland water and even the ground water. The CCP is politically conscious, not environmentally so.
that poplar plantation could easily be used more efficiently, the poplar while fast growing and quick dying, will provide unseen nutrients to the soils for the correct trees to grow in. planting them at the same time could easily help each other grow and live longer by simply using the poplar as a food source.
Вот как они китайцы самый умные, красивые дома деревне независимо от бедности построили одинаковые дома. Сейчас пошли на пустыни чтобы людям конфорт было и чистый востух. А у нас россии нет красивых дома деревне только одни развалины. Как китайцы быстро развивает везде во всех сверах. Говорят китайцы угнетает уйгуров, а дома уйгуров очень красивые .

China shares its experience with African countries and funds their effort to reforestation. Ethiopia follows China's model used at Loess Plateau and is quite successful.
This is what mankind really ought to be focused on, making our planet green, healthy and bountiful. Imagine if the world were not dominated by greedy sociopaths having wars to steal "this natural resource" from "that group" and instead put their efforts into cooperation and projects like these. I know, I know, how silly. More like how sad that isn't how it is.

@@ed9763 exactly! The water will wet the land under the panels regularly, perfect for grass or bushes to grow. There's good examples in China, That's Why i suggested that.
Glad they came up with something other than using shovels to implant straw by hand. I know they have a lot of cheap labor, but all that should be mechanized with planters such as how farmers plant agricultural fields.
I take my hat off to these people.🎩They are doing an amazing job👏🏼 I have an idea so that the sand is not blown into the city by wind. Cardboard paper should be placed in the sand, fixed with stones at the corners.
As the banyans plants I know those need watter climate, now there are planting more waterless-need trees to make that water habitat, and then they can plant more kinds of vegetation

Yes. They are having great tree losses where they planted monocultures of trees by the road. The lack of plant diversity is is harming soil life. Zero animals go into these places and that harms it further.
In the first place, there are only few trees that can survive the desert condition 😅. So these plants are the most resistant ones. 8:49 you can hear the different species of trees. It's not monoculture. Also, these regions probably originally desert for thousanss of years. So, no native plants. Edit: and also, everything has process. They just planting big trees. The shrubs will come later naturally. And othee plants too. It's all natural. And with steps They plant big trees first to give shades to the ground so the other plants can grow.
@DBT1007 They were planted for their use once cut, rather than "best tree for the site." Additionally these are a monoculture, and these trees are already dying out due to disease. If they had planted pioneer species, such as Prosopis, (mesquite) these trees might have acted as a nursery to other plants and animals, but it failed. Zero additional plant or animal life has come in. To come in far at all, they risk death.

有些人说浪费水资源，其实中国只在一些水文条件好的地区恢复那些以前是树林的沙漠，这个叫治理沙漠。
水文条件不好的，就只能防沙固沙，做草井（沙漠因为温差大，有了这个早上会有水凝聚）
我们这么做就是为了自己生存环境能好一点，并不是说什么面子工程，当然说好听了也是为了人类的未来
小时候我们时常刮沙尘暴，现在基本没了
中国有南水北调工程，以后慢慢应该也会将水利条件不好的地方进行改造，进而恢复更多的树林。
