Dear MEL Topic Readers,
World can learn from Chinese afforestation
Unlike reforestation, which restores an area that has been deforested, afforestation is the process of introducing trees and tree seedlings to an area that has previously not been forested. Afforestation can be done through tree planting and seeding, naturally or artificially. It is regarded as one of the prospective methods to fight climate concerns, as it increases the soil quality and organic carbon levels into the soil, avoiding desertification.
China has been very active in afforestation for the last four decades even though the forest area per capita is still far lower than the international average. In fact, the amount of planted forest has exceeded 80 million hectares and still growing. China claims afforestation has generated a remarkable improvement in local diversity and lifted more than 100,000 rural residents from poverty. Apart from the self-claimed achievement, China’s goal to afforest 36,000 square kilometers each year in their new five-year plan is an ambitious but respectable commitment to sustainable and green development.
Enjoy reading the article and learn about China’s afforestation.
