China's desertification program on display in Saudi Arabia

The achievements of the Three-North Shelterbelt Program are being exhibited at a 608-square-meter China Pavilion in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, from Monday through Dec 13.

China has achieved a "double reduction" in desertification and sandy land, becoming the first country in the world to achieve the goal of zero net growth in land degradation.
