CGTN published this video item, entitled “Inner Mongolia: Spruce trees – survivors in sand” – below is their description.
For more:
In the dry sandy lands of Hexigten in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, the spruce tree is a powerful competitor in the survival of the fittest. To reach water, it stretches its roots and grows near rivers. This act doesn’t just help it survive, it also stops the sand dunes from migrating and prevents the sandy lands from turning into a desert. But its survival is threatened by a particular insect. What are people doing to conserve these spruce trees?
