Where are the tree species planted in Ma Yun Desert?

The place where Ma Yun Desert planted trees is located in Alashan Desert.

This charity aims to turn the desert into an oasis. First of all, we need to understand the phenomenon of land desertification in China. In recent years, land desertification in China is particularly serious. The area of desertified land has expanded from 6.5438+0.37 million square kilometers to 6.5438+0.76 million square kilometers, and the population affected by land desertification is as high as 5 million. The problem of land desertification needs to be solved urgently.

The reason why Ma Yun wants to build ANT FOREST is to implement the policy of "returning sand to forest" and truly turn desert into oasis. At the same time, in response to the call of the national government, guide the public to live a low-carbon life, replace driving with walking, pay living expenses online, and purchase tickets online to gain energy value in ANT FOREST.

The obtained energy value can be used to plant a real tree in ANT FOREST, which is in urgent need of solving desertification land. In other words, the more low-carbon consumption, the more energy you get and the more trees you plant. This not only popularized the use of Alipay, but also advocated energy conservation and emission reduction, and also contributed to the management of desertification land, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

Significance and function of planting trees in desert

1, resist sandstorm and prevent desert expansion.

By planting trees in the desert, these planted trees can keep loose sand, weaken the wind in the desert area and stop the expansion of the desert. Because the wind speed can be reduced to 20% to 30% after passing through these windbreaks, planting trees in the desert can effectively resist sandstorms.

2. Soil and water conservation

Arid and semi-arid areas are characterized by lack of water resources and windy, and people's destruction of land has gradually turned cultivated land into desertification land. Because an acre of land with trees can store about 20 tons more water than an area without trees, planting trees in the desert can improve water and soil and improve the ecological environment.

3. Produce economic benefits

Trees can be planted in desert areas, bringing economic benefits. On the one hand, planting economic trees in the desert can create a large number of local labor and employment opportunities. On the other hand, roads in the desert can be protected by planting trees. For example, China protects the Tarim Highway by planting trees, which is beneficial to the exploitation and transportation of oil.
