In recent years, China has implemented a series of effective measures to combat desertification in the Taklimakan Desert, the world's second-largest shifting-sand desert in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.

Through innovative methods such as grass grids, photovoltaic power stations and windbreak forests, China has built a green barrier on the edge of the Taklimakan Desert, achieving remarkable results in desertification control and prevention.
