Some of you may play Ant Forest. It is a game on Ali pay. Users collect "energy" to make their "trees" grow. When the "energy" reaches a certain level (程度), some organizations and companies will plant a real tree in a desert area of China. And now it seems that the country's efforts as a whole to make a greener world have paid off.

According to a study by NASA, China and India are the main reasons for making the Earth greener over the past twenty years. The study has found that since 2000 the Earth's green leaf area has increased by 5 percent, or over 5 million square kilometers. The increased green leaf area is as large as that of the Amazon rainforest. It is mainly the result of big trees-planting programs in China and intensive agriculture (集约型农业) in both countries, according to NASA. China and India take up one third of the increased greening, but is only 9 percent of the planet's land area covered in vegetation.

China played the most important role in the increase of the green land, adding 25 percent to this increase, while India added 6.8 percent. Over the past years, China has made great efforts to green the land. In 1978, China began a nation-wide forestation project–the Three North Shelterbelt Forest Program, also known as the" Great Green Wall". The program has seen many trees planted in 13 provinces and autonomous regions such as Tibet and Inner Mongolia in northern China to act as windbreak. By the end of 2017, the forest coverage rate among the areas of the project had reached 13.57 percent, compared to 5.05 percent 40 years ago.

Because of China's success in dealing with desertification (沙漠化), the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) believes the country is a good example for others to follow. China is one of the most successful countries in greening the desert and has lessons to share with the world.
