China's first desert that is about to 'disappear', an area larger than Hainan Island, and 80% of the area has become an oasis

In recent years, with the accelerated development of industrialization, the consumption of resources has gradually increased, the emission of carbon dioxide has increased, and the global environment has been seriously polluted. Under this circumstance, climate change has become the focus of attention of countries around the world, and global warming has accelerated, resulting in frequent occurrences of extreme weather and natural disasters. Just entering 2022, many countries have experienced crises such as volcanic eruptions, snowstorms, and wildfires, which have caused many people to panic. The occurrence of these events is that the earth is sounding the alarm for human beings, and environmental problems cannot be ignored.

It is worth mentioning that China has always attached great importance to environmental issues. As early as the last century, China proposed the concept of afforestation and promoted the project nationwide. You know, desertification is the most harmful environmental problem in China today. To solve this problem, China has been accelerating the pace of environmental governance. After decades of hard work, afforestation projects have developed by leaps and bounds, and many deserts are gradually turning green.

In fact, the problem of land desertification not only hinders regional economic development, but also has a great impact on people's lives. However, with the joint efforts of the people of the whole country, China has once again created a world miracle. The first desert to "disappear" appeared, and 80% of the area became an oasis. It is reported that this desert is China's Mao Us Desert, covering an area of ​​42,200 square kilometers, even larger than Hainan Island. Now, after years of governance, 80% of this desert has been turned into an oasis.

It is understood that China is arguably the country with the most say in desert governance. Through diverting water and dredging sand, planting trees and improving soil, the appearance of the Mu Us Desert has undergone great changes. Now, 80% of the area has become grassland, woodland and fertile land, and even the annual sediment transport of the Yellow River has decreased by 400 million tons. It is worth noting that after seeing China's desert governance achievements, all countries expressed their appreciation. The Mu Us Desert was rated as the "Global Desert Governance Standard" by the United Nations.

In this regard, some experts bluntly said that the governance of the Mu Us Desert has not only brought new development opportunities to China, but has also shown the hope of desert governance to all countries in the world. With the continuous efforts of scientific researchers and grassroots personnel, China will create more desert miracles in the future. With the continuous emergence of desert green space, the earth's ecological environment will undergo earth-shaking changes, which can not only consume a part of carbon dioxide, but also avoid soil erosion and increase more usable land resources.
