Every time we mention the desert, we will think of the magnificent and endless natural scene. For us tourists, we all hope that we can see the beauty of the desert in this life and feel the shock of nature! However, due to the harsh environment of the desert, the desert has always stopped people, and only some bold and curious tourists dare to go!

For people living around the desert, they don't think the desert is a beautiful landscape. The environmental climate caused by the desert is hot and arid, and even brings sandstorms, land desertification and other problems, which have seriously endangered the lives of local people. You must know that although China has a vast land, the area of ​​desert occupies a large part. Therefore, sand control is urgent in our country.

Around the 1990s, China began a vigorous sand control campaign. Take our largest desert in China, the Taklimakan Desert, for example, it cost 100 million yuan to plant a large number of poplar trees here. How has it become like this now?

The most fundamental way to control the desert is to plant trees and let the desert come to life. However, the Taklimakan Desert is a mobile desert, which can easily lead to the failure of planted trees to survive. And later, our country decided to plant poplar trees here. In the past few years, under the leadership of our country and the joint efforts of the local villagers, such a desert has a completely different scene.

Poplar trees have the function of preventing wind and sand fixing. After people's unremitting efforts, the environment of the desert has become better and better in the past few years, and oases have begun to appear. In the desert, it is no longer an endless desert, but a vibrant scene. Local people say that the dust storms have been reduced and the air quality has improved. Thanks to the motherland!

It is undeniable that after decades of sand control, our environment has undergone a qualitative leap. It is also known as the most successful country in the world for sand control, and is regarded by the United Nations as a model for sand control. Foreign media They all praise China! What do you think about such a country?

When the environment improves, tourism is also vigorously developed here, and more and more tourists come to the Taklimakan Desert, all of whom want to feel the effectiveness of China's sand control. This makes every Chinese proud. For such a desert, if it were you, would you like to come here for sightseeing?
