The Relationship between Sandstorm in Northern China and Coal Fires in China?

Sandstorms in northern China mainly come from Gobi desert and desert areas in northwest and central Asia.

However, with the increasingly serious desertification in northern China, sandstorms will break out in China and intensify when passing through China.

The main causes of desertification in northern China are overgrazing and overgrazing grassland. Especially in Inner Mongolia and other places, a large number of cashmere goats are bred, which leads to a large number of high-quality grassland desertification.

Cashmere goats have different habits from sheep. Ordinary sheep only eat grass leaves and stalks, while cashmere goats eat grass roots together and eat them cleanly. The grassland destroyed by cashmere goats is difficult to recover naturally for more than ten years.

Australia is the largest wool producer in the world, accounting for about 40% of the world's wool, but Australia does not produce cashmere. South America and Russia, which also have high-quality grasslands and produce a lot of wool, do not produce cashmere. Is it because none of these countries can raise cashmere goats? Or are they stupid and don't know how to make "soft gold" They are willing to give up this market because they are well aware of the harm of raising cashmere goats, which is devastating to pasture resources and will also bring a series of environmental problems.

At present, the largest cashmere producing area in the world is China, with a share of about 50%-60%, followed by Mongolia. Domestic cashmere producing areas are concentrated in Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang, Liaoning, Shaanxi and Gansu.

These areas are basically consistent with the sources of sandstorms in northern China in recent years.

If you have a chance, you can go to Inner Mongolia to see what the grassland of cashmere goats is like, and you will understand the role of cashmere goats in desertification in the north.

Coal fire is mainly a waste of coal resources, which is the most harmful to the environment, that is, dozens of kilometers nearby. Compared with the sandstorm that can harm tens of thousands of kilometers, it is really dwarfed.

Therefore, the sandstorm in the north has nothing to do with coal fire, but with a large number of cashmere goats.
