The World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought is a United Nations observance celebrated each year on June 17 to raise awareness of the presence of desertification and drought, highlighting methods of preventing desertification and recovering from drought. Over the past few years, the people of Jiuquan City's Jinta County, in northwest China's Gansu Province, have insisted on fighting against sandstorms, achieving remarkable results by carrying out sand prevention and control through various technologies. The Jinta Desert Populus Euphratica Forest Scenic Spot has launched a sand prevention and control experience project, which has attracted many foreigners and students. Join CGTN to have a look!
