Living Desert

The locals revitalising Inner Mongolia’s Kubuqi Desert

The Kubuqi Desert in China’s Inner Mongolia has spread through desertification. The process is being reversed, thanks to the hard work of those who love the region. A businessman who plants vegetation on dunes and his globe-trotting daughter who is developing fun activities with camels for China’s tourists show RTD how much can be done.
