Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, China has taken multiple measures to promote desertification control, achieved great success in sand prevention and control, and further strengthened the green barrier of beautiful China.

From a high altitude perspective, the world's largest ecological project and a key landmark project in sand prevention and control - the "Three North" project, through unremitting efforts, has built a green ecological barrier across more than 4 million square kilometers of land in northern China.

From "sand entering and people retreating" to "green entering and sand retreating", China's green territory continues to expand, and desertification and desertified land continue to shrink. The results of the sixth national survey on desertification and desertification show that for the first time, China has achieved a "double reversal" of desertification and desertified land in all surveyed provinces.

In the past decade, China has completed a total of 20.33 million hectares of desertification prevention and control tasks, with 53% of treatable desertification land being treated. The area of desertification and desertification land has decreased by 5 million hectares and 4.33 million hectares respectively compared to ten years ago, and the average vegetation coverage in sandy areas has increased by 2.6 percentage points. The total amount of soil wind erosion in the eight major deserts and four major sandy areas has decreased by about 40% compared to 2000.

Over the past decade, a total of 1.02 billion mu of afforestation and 1.24 billion mu of forest nurturing have been completed nationwide. The national forest coverage has increased to 24.02%, and the preserved area of artificial forests has reached 1.314 billion mu, ranking first in the world. In the past decade, a quarter of the world's newly added forest area has come from China, which has become the country with the fastest and largest growth in forest resources.

In years of struggle against sandstorms, China has explored and summarized over 100 desertification prevention and control technologies with Chinese characteristics. At present, China has established a theoretical and technical system for desertification prevention and control, providing important scientific and technological support for ecological engineering construction in China.

After unremitting efforts, China has achieved the United Nations goal of zero growth in land degradation by 2030 ahead of schedule.

2021-2030 is the construction period of the sixth phase of the "Three North" project, and it is also a key period for consolidating and expanding the achievements of sand prevention and control. At present, focusing on the battle against the Yellow River's "several bends", the annihilation of the two major sandy areas of Horqin and Hunshandak, and the interception battle on the edge of the Hexi Corridor Taklamakan Desert, the Ministry of Natural Resources and the National Forestry and Grassland Administration have mainly drafted the "Opinions on Strengthening Comprehensive Prevention and Control of Desertification and Promoting the Construction of Key Ecological Projects such as the" Three North ". The National Development and Reform Commission has led the compilation of the overall plan for the" Three North "project and clarified the ideas for the sixth phase of planning.
