- China is rebuilding the Great Wall of China. However, now they build not with stones, mortar, sand and rubble, designed to stop the enemy hordes. Nowadays they build with trees. Just like the wall erected many years ago, the world's largest man-made forest should stop the enemy that China has been fighting for many years and which is no less dangerous than the problem of overpopulation. This enemy is the desert that occupies most of eastern China and continues to grow non-stop.

That's the saddest story ever, and the leadership seems hellbent on continuing that insanity.
Instead of efficiently using the arable land they already have, they've let the greed of farmers destroy something we all need and will never get back once gone.

The world may say alot of things about China but we gotta admit, when they put their mind to something, they definitely put in the work to achieve it.
Yeah they do! Just like when they wanna commit genocide, or imprison millions for crimes of conscious! They really put in the work in eradicating all thought/ethnic differences! They also got the best organ transplant system! It’s awesome! they kill all political dissidents but keep them alive until someone needs their organs! You can buy organs on specific dates in a multitude of Chinese hospitals, because they really put in that work!

There is so much anti Chinese propaganda in the west that we often don’t hear about all the good things they are doing. I love projects like this I hope the one in Africa is even more successful, for all our sakes.
As a person who cares about the environment, I give my many thanks to the people of China and their leaders for their amazing acheivement. Hope they keep up the good work.......Greetings and admiration from Canada

I was in Xinjiang 3 years ago as a tourist from California and I saw this with my own eyes. We traveled hundreds of miles both on buses and on high-speed trains. On both sides of the road/track as far as the eyes can see were newly planted trees, both in the sandy/rocky desert and on arid hilly terrains. Trees were even planted on cliffs so steep, you wonder why they bothered (or who would be so brave). And it went on endlessly. It was amazing. I live in California and drives through the barren Mojave Desert all the time and there is nothing like that here.
I’ve never been Xinjiang, but I am very familiar with California desert. I know Central Valley was a kind of desert before, but a lot of desert in California are still no trees. Can you tell what is difference between desert in California and in Xingjiang?
Thank you for your reply. I am living in San Jose for 10 years. Often thinking Central Valley is not that bad as other desert places in CALIFORNIA, so it can be converted to fruit agricultural fields, other place is much worse. From your description, looks like Central Valley was same as other desert before, Human being can change landscape a lot. Subscribed your channel.

For those who questioned our methods of anti-desertification saying that we waste too much water:
I once spent 5 years in Xi'an, Shaanxi province during college years and I volunteered several times in Maowusu desert in Yulin, in the northwest of China to plant trees 🌿. I could tell you that what you said about diverting rivers to desert for tree planting is the only way we deal with desertification is totally false.
We adapt the mingle forest planting techniques to tackle the desertification, which means there is a mixture of phycophyta plants, frutex plants and trees in the desert, not just trees. The order of planting these vegetations is carefully selected.
You should know that the desert climate means that the water will be very quickly vaporized, so without soil to retain water, the plants, especially trees can't get enough water and will eventually die. So you can't just bluntly planting trees in the desert. Even if you drag an iceberg in the desert they will still die. So the first priority is to modify the desert and gives it the ability to retain water.
The first step would be to put straws in the desert and weave these straws into little checkboxes and fixate these checkboxes in the sand to form a layout of chessboard. These chessboards of straws would help lock down the sands. Then the workers choose from phycophyta plants (e.g. algae), or herbaceous plants (e.g. grass) as per the environment of the desert to plant in these straw checkboxes. When these plants start to stretch their roots in the sand, the water will start to be retained under the surface of the sand. Then the frutex plants (e.g. Sea Buckthorn) could be planted in order to hold more water in a deeper level. At this point, we only have people carry tanks of water into the desert and water these plants every now and then. Because these plants need very minimum amount of water to survive.
When these vegetations thrives and covers the whole desert, there will be a significant improvement in the circulation of water vapor. Thanks to a beign circulation of moisture, the sands could retain more and more water for trees to be planted. The type of trees should also be carefully selected, we can't use those who consume a lot of water, euphrates poplar is the best choice, as it is a indigenous plant in barren lands such as Gobi Desert in China. So the combination of phycophyta, herbaceous, frutex plants and trees will change the ecosystem of the desert gradually, and more trees could be planted to form an oasis. The irrigation relies on the water vapor circulation, water tanks or drainages. When the oasis is stable, we can get the rivers in to irrigate all vegetations, including fruit trees or other cash crops cultivated in the area.
Last but not least, whether it is a propaganda or not, we Chinese succeeded in modifying the deserts. The deserts used to expand 3436km2 per year and now the deserts have retreated 1980km2 per year, which is truly beneficial for the people. There are many research institutes established in the cities near the deserts to study desertification also. This victory belongs to workers, scientists and ordinary citizens who have contributed in this mega project.
This is a scientific fact that China has succeed in anti-desertification, and there is no room for unwarranted accusation since you know nothing about our methods.
Thank u so much for explain this. It's meaningful to me.
ps. I agree with U about straw too
even I stay in a lot of rain country but in dry season , I still use straw to cover and it's work so well.
very well said!
Thank you for clarifying this matter and the fight against desertification, a job well done.
This should be celebrated as a great triumph of mankind’s effort, ingenuity, fortitude, and hard work!
China has done some amazing deeds.
You did a fantastic job. thank you for your effort to save the earth.

This is generations of devotion and hard work. When I was a kid, I learned in school about the 三北防护林 or The Three Northern-Protective Forests. Now my daughter is a kid in school, and the project is still going. I hope I could live to see the finish of it. Though many Chinese are atheists, many of us worship mother nature. Let's protect our mother nature and the green and blue planet we call home.

Calling this impressive would be an understatement. This is astounding and marvelous! Living in Phoenix, Arizona and now Namibia, the desert is something I am familiar with. Watching people work together to halt desertification is moving and inspiring.

Only Chinese bots are so quick to use the term western society you continue to give yourself away with your sheep like obedience to the CCP.
Technically, this whole large scale tree planting project is divided into three phases. First phase is for preventing further desertification in the northern border, second phase is to use forests to gradually alter the dry climate of northern areas, and only in the third phase will they finally start to plant multiple species of tree. Right now China is only at the first phase, and in desert climate majority of the tree species can barely take roots, let alone surviving long enough to grow to a proper size. There are very few tree species that are suitable for this job, and that's why the Chinese government decided to not put "multi-species" as its priority but rather the area coverage.

I just want to add that the second phase of the project, as you have said, will naturally help China increase its fresh water intake... Currently the fresh water is not enough to macro-maintain the Chinese population. This is also the reason of these river course altering projects and dams build to divert water from the humid south to the dry north.

➊➏➋➏➍➒➏➒➌➐➋➐
When we mention improving for future generations. Trees ARE the fundamental game changer! An example:
In Portugal in the 1300's!! Yep! Some time ago! By order of a wise King D. Diniz, trees were planted as a mean to control soil erosion, dunes, etc. Today we're still collecting the benefits of the did!
The same King, created the Portuguese navy, who celebrated its 700 years of existence a few years ago!
Many of those trees served to build the ships that sailed the world! Creating the first modern maritime empire and the global world we're living on!
He also saved the Knights Templar, into the "Order of Christ"! Those became the great explorers, navigators and sea Captains, who wrote new pages of world history! Building the first modern maritime empire and the global market world we live on today!
It all started with a seed!
Cheers
Good to replant baby 🌳 and 💧 = 😁👍😇
Happy birthday to the Portuguese Navy & 700 years of service that started with a seed.
This is so fascinating...
Sadly, in the West (where I live) you virtually never hear or see anything about China's enormous desert greening projects.
Wasn't aware of the extent of China's efforts, and want to learn more about it...
That's because it's not true. This is propaganda, this didn't happen, has never happened and will never happen in china. They are the worst country in the world and the only country that still has slaves and they are commiting genocides against several minority groups. The chinese government kills 40,000 people per day in death camps. There is a reason you never hear about it, because it's not true. The chinese government are pure evil and most of the chinese population are brainwashed by shit just like this. Some dude just made this in an afternoon, none of this happened, none of it is real. Every single picture and video used is computer generated, none of the shots are real photographs or videos, its all CGI, and that should be obvious if you have ever seen a movie from the early 2000s.

Good luck with that mate.
Also the brainwashes part makes me laugh as the US is as brainwashes as North Korea.
@@TheNade saying things like China is pure evil and the worst country in the world show just how brainwashed you are by the pathetic propaganda of the USA and its insecure position as a power in decline. China has laid more high speed rail than the rest of the world combined to end domestic flying and fight climate change; expanded solar panel production through billions in state investment, which has improved technology and created economies of scale for the entire world; USA, Canada, Australia all produce 2X the CO2 per capita that China does, and aren't where the west has outsourced all of its manufacturing to yet China is always called a climate vilain in Western media because it's in the establishment's interest to start a new cold war; China has more installed solar capacity than Europe and the USA combined, the highest installed wind and hydroelectric capacities in the world, increased nuclear capacity by 500% since 2010; USA has 5X the GDP per capita of China and is doing a tiny fraction of what China is to address climate change both domestically and internationally; China has lifted millions of people out of poverty and grown in its economy so of course their emissions are increasing, but the emissions of a country of 1.3 Bn people which is the manufacturing hub of the world is obviously going to be significant. Human rights groups have not labelled the Uighur situation a genocide because it doesn't meet the criteria - in fact the forced re-education of these groups is reminiscent of the practices widely adopted in the USA towards both African Americans and Native Americans - forced sterilization was common until the 60s. Of course the treatment of the Uighurs is awful, but also common practice for large societies to impose national unity such as the abuses that occurred under european colonialism. My friend is teaching English in China and I have seen pictures of him visiting parts of the great green wall, I don't know how you could be so colossally stupid to not realise anyone could disprove your point just by using google maps or googling some of the national parks within these forests. Stop suckling the Western propaganda tit and start appreciating what some other countries are doing and maybe your shitheap of a country might stop fucking up the world for once.
@@TheNade The fact that you say it is the worst nation in the world and has slaves shows how fucked up your thinking is when you don't even have proof. You might claim that they conceal the evidences that's why the world doesn't know so how did you know? It only makes your claims a stupid unreliable assumption. Sorry if someone hurt you.
Edit: Most people in the comment sections claim they have seen it including me so are we all liars?
The most impressive thing about the Chinese is their passion, irrespective of what they're doing. When they are putting in their efforts, it's like you cannot distract them from their goals.

The midwest uses the same technique with 'wind breaks' which help energy conservation for exposed rural homes and farmsteads. This area also implemented multiple techniques during the dust bowl of the 1930's to prevent erosion and desertification from the Rockies, terraces, swales, crop rotation, and allowing native grasses to remain on untouched lands. We have the knowledge, we just need to keep doing it.
Chinese people are Known for establishing great things 👍👍
A few years ago I visited a rural area in China's Gansu province, a region right on the edge of the Gobi desert. The local government has special projects to control the desertification and consolidate the soil. I saw from the highway that the land on both sides had been planted with a special grass that crawl on the ground, and my local friends told me that it was not enough to plant this grass, but also needed to put a layer of small stones on top of the land so that the grass would not be easily lifted when the wind blew wildly. It’s not easy, great people dedicate to this for decades.
Thats smart. I don't see why people have to keep blabbering about propaganda, no one would want their naturally beautiful country overrun by a desert!

Do u realise anything? Deserts are as important as forests. There's a reason they naturally exist.
Wow. These people in comment section are real dumbos.
@@kamallb4650 admittedly desert is an important part of natural landscape. But those deserts in north-western China only occurred in recent hundreds of years due to human activities and deforestation. Archaeological evidence shows that in Han Dynasty (around 2000 years ago), elephants and rhinos were roaming in the deserts you see in this video. What people do is actually changing the place back to what it should look like without human influence.
@@stevenkyle9426 key word that I used: *naturally*
Now. I don't think around 2000 years human civilization was harmful/strong enough to destroy such a huge ecosystem or create such a huge impact on habitat loss. Also consider Fossil fuels and electricity came into mainstream within 500years.
Maybe a part of it was a habitat for some animals but majority was prolly desert.
What happened before 2000years had more natural influence than anthropogenic.
Plus China is still heavily investing on "infrastructure" ie. making ghost cities on a large scale for God know what reason.
We need reduce consumption and deforestation at a faster rate and find better sources of energy.
Western nations have most per capita emissions while they always blame eastern, south eastern nations for everything.
I believe natural destruction and formation of ecosystem shouldn't be hindered by our practices.
@@kamallb4650 my friend, never underestimate the destructive power of human. You will have a better understanding if you learn more about population explosion in China since Ming Dynasty. A desert that covers hundreds of km2 can be created within a few decades , Luo Bu Po, a once gigantic lake in North-western China totally disappeared within one generation time. If someone says he will turn the Sahara desert into farmlands, I would say he's crazy. But I am really happy to see those "artificial deserts" got permanently erased from the map.
That is crazy I had no idea China did something like that. When they want to put their mind to something they can really do remarkable things. Planting more trees is definitely a good thing for everyone.

Meanwhile Brazil : let's cut The Amazon, what could go wrong
...
@Leo Dottavio maybe because a large civilization in china has existed there for thousands of years while being for more advanced then brazil until a few centuries ago and that china has been united for much longer and they have a much larger population yet not much larger of a size and there are large deserts in china wheras brazil is most rainforest and forest
@Leo Dottavio China has not been cutting down all of its own trees.China has already moved past wooden architecture, and is investing in synthetics to save the environment. The funny thing is, in China they actually designate certain roads for heavily polluting vehicles. Deforestation has been happening all over the planet. The desert? Seriously? That stuff takes thousands of years to create.
@Leo Dottavio Even if what you said is true, then you're defying logic because if in the last few decades there's been deforestation, then China is still taking more initiative to rebuild things, rather than selling things out to American oil companies which are destroying everything. You see, it's just a different mentality completely.
and the other thing is, they say that the rainforests are more important to the world environment, yet in Brazil and other parts of that area, hardly any work is being done to reforest the area.
So you can throw around Blame, but unless you're takingresponsibility for your actions like China has, looking at first things first and taking responsibility for your own shortcomings, your arguments fall on deaf ears. Not to mention the drug issues in those countries surrounding Brazil, for hundreds of years when China has outlawed drugs, as it already knows the hindrance on society.
it's just plain and simple, if your argument about deforestation in recent years has any weight, it just simply points a bigger finger back at Brazil and other parts.
within the last decade China has made far more technological advancements due to mental refinement practices. Yet in Brazil, things continued to spiral backwards. These are just simple realities and all the people in the comments section here just blaming China, when they never focus on their own shortcomings, just come across as stupid.
In actuality, much of the Amazon forest is rather young. Seed and pollen samples taken from core samples in ponds, lakes, rivers and swamps have revealed that it was once more akin to savannah. A people, possibly in the millions planted fruit bearing trees in groves and harvested crops in raised black earth mounds. When the Europeans arrived disease decimated these societies, wiping out probably 95% of the population. The managed farms grew up into the cloud forests we see today. The indigenous tribes found in these regions are the surviving remnants of this previous civilization.
@@user-nt9jn3uj2y What shortcomings are you referring to? 😂
it's amazing, there's a lot to improve but it's a sign that we can change things. there was also a story in my country too that an area that suffered from drought became a bountiful forest after some people started planting trees in it (after decades of dedication of course). if we do this in countries suffering from drought, how many people might be saved?
The whole world must follow the Chinese cause to create a greener earth for all lives, set the political differences aside and work as humanity in whole! please.
Every superpower has its bugs, but you can't help but admire the Chinese.

I had not heard of this specific project. Good for them. I had heard that some regions were using five-meter squares (or so) of straw that were partially buried in the either poor soil or in desert sand. There was monthly upkeep. So, there was that to consider. The straw was thought to catch and hold native grass seeds that were windblown. Seemed to work. and a prairie of a sort had formed.
Planting some tree in my teenage seems my most meaningful thing done to the world.
Except this was a failure, the trees have absorbed so much water they have caused an expansion of the desert and worsening sandstorms
Don’t forget you start working at 7
In China, April 12 is tree-planting day, in honor of Dr. Sun Yat-sen. All elementary schools take the kids on a field trip that day and lets each student plant a tree. This has been a thing since I was a kid, and yes, those were some VERY meaningful experiences.

As a chinese i agree with you... We should respect each other, as a ordinary person all we can do is make a better life... Sometimes the political thing just irrational and doesn't make sense.
As much as I know, India and China are both the oldest superpowers that coexisted peacefully for 1000s of years. As neighbors, there will always be differences. But that doesn't have to compromise the old wisdom that both countries have shared. Differences should be settled rationally and peacefully without losing the respect for each other.

@@chirak8635 there will always be issues when you put two smart guys in a room. You even have issues with America. It's normal because India (like all other countries) has interests.

When Chinese gov trying to do sth, it’s normally takes 10-30 years. They don’t need to focus on election, don’t need to consider how to win the election, that’s the reason why China fast developed.
