According to a research about farming lands in China, five billion hektare lands are becoming sandy every year, 4 million hektare forest are vanishing every day, thousands of ton fertile soil are washed away every second.
This sounds astonishing, but it is true in China today, and the causes are evident- the excessive exploition of the environment and pollution.
To solve these problems, the Chinese government should firstly protect forest. As science books write, every tree can hold soil of three times its weight. Trees are the most efficient way to keep the soil from washing away.To get rid of the illegal usage of forest, the government should put every effort in it, and punish the suspects as strict as possible.
Furthermore, new power system should be adapted as quick as possible. A coal power station uses thousands of coal every day to burn. As a result, acid rain forms.This in turn destroy the forest in a farely large scale.Obviously, traditional power station should be replaced if the government want to protect the forest.
