The largest desert in China is the Taklimakan Desert. This desert is in the center of the Tarim Basin in Xinjiang. This desert is very mobile and is the second largest mobile desert in the world. The mobile desert is 1,000 kilometers long and 400 kilometers wide, with a total area of ​​330,000 square kilometers. There is no green in such a desert, no life is seen, and some are just white deserts. It is very difficult to survive here because the desert moves with the wind. At the same time, it is a danger to the interior, as it will erode the normal surrounding land, and it will desertify the land. Such a problem is an urgent problem for the government to solve. What we want to talk about today is, remember the hundreds of millions of trees that China spent hundreds of millions planting in the Taklimakan Desert? How is it now?

The Chinese government has always been dealing with desertification. A miracle occurred in the Mu Us Desert, and the desert was successfully managed. Such cases inspired the hearts of the Chinese people, so the government set its sights on the Taklimakan Desert. This desert receives less than 100 mm of precipitation throughout the year, but its evaporation is 2,500 mm. The government has invested hundreds of millions of dollars in governance of this desert. Although various problems have been encountered in the process of governance, the Chinese government and Chinese people have not given up. Speaking of which, many netizens have made such remarks, why do they spend so much human, material and financial resources to control the desert. And, can the plants grown in the desert really survive? If it can't survive, isn't the human, material and financial resources consumed by China all wasted?

In the face of such doubts, the Chinese government has its own considerations and has also made a very detailed statement. In dealing with the desert, the Chinese government has put forward a long-term plan. First, the plants selected for planting are drought-tolerant and suitable for desert growth. Because the Taklimakan Desert is a fluid desert, planting plants can effectively reduce the fluidity of the Taklimakan Desert, and at the same time play a role in preventing wind. If the wind is reduced, the fluidity of the sand will be reduced, so the effect of stabilizing the desert can be achieved. So as to solve the desert problem from the most fundamental problem.

Second, the Chinese government built a highway in the Taklimakan Desert. Populus euphratica forests were planted on both sides of the highway, covering an area of ​​130 square kilometers. On this road, driving a private car can enjoy the scenery of the desert. It is precisely because of the construction of such a desert road that many people have the opportunity to experience a different kind of scenery in the desert.

Today, the Chinese government and the working people are still managing the Taklimakan Desert, embellishing the desert with a little green, so that the desert is no longer a desert, and the desert becomes a lush oasis under the control. This is the wish of every person who manages the desert. The wish of every Chinese compatriot. Protecting the gold and silver mountains of the motherland and managing the land issues of the motherland are not only the social responsibilities that a citizen must undertake, but also the protection of the place where we live. The earth is the place where we live. If our earth is destroyed by people and not managed effectively, then our living environment will also be destroyed. Once the survival on which we depend is gone, people will Where to go?
