Truly inspiring story about fighting an expanding desert & flipping the narrative.

In Xinjiang, China, the Taklimakan desert is now surrounded by 3000 km of man-made forest. 😱

The new ecosystem provides opportunities for farming, green energy & tourism.

Middle East countries should be doing this, instead of caught up in endless wars and poverty.
