Desertification is a big problem in China due to climate change and human activities. China has been working hard to control desertification by planting trees, rehabilitating sandy areas, and conserving water. Despite challenges like drying trends and a growing population, China has successfully reversed the expansion of desertified land. Efforts like government policies, forestry programs, and eco-industrialization have helped restore balance to arid and semi-arid ecosystems. China's methods for controlling desertification could be useful for managing desertified land worldwide.
