With just these two photos, China dares to tell the White House: don't think America can win any war!
In October, the Taklamakan Desert still has hot sand particles in the wind. But now, this place is no longer a sea of death, but the world's longest desert green ecological barrier - the 3046 km "edge-locking" project has just been completed here.
In the recently released "Top Ten Engineering Achievements of the World in 2025", the Taklamakan Desert Edge-Locking Project was selected alongside advanced technologies such as the Perseverance Mars Rover and the full-ocean-depth manned submersible.
Meanwhile, in the Kubuqi Desert in Inner Mongolia, another transformation has also attracted attention: deep blue photovoltaic panels stretch for dozens of miles over the yellow sands, together with rotating wind turbine blades forming a "blue energy sea".
In the edge of the Tengger Desert in Zhongwei, Ningxia, the "photovoltaic +" base of the State Energy Group is demonstrating a modern version of "turning sand into gold". Technicians vividly compare the economic model here to a "three-story building":
The top layer generates electricity through photovoltaic panels; the middle layer uses the space between panels to grow economic crops such as goji berries and cistanche, with an output value per mu exceeding 5000 yuan; the bottom layer utilizes the cool environment to develop earthworm farming, which not only improves sandy soil but also becomes a specialty livestock feed.
China has vast areas of deserts and desertified land. Taking the Kubuqi Desert as an example, more than 6460 square kilometers of desert have been greened through management, equivalent to creating multiple "granary of the frontier". This directly increases China's effective arable land area, providing more land for the cultivation of grain, vegetables, and cash crops, reducing pressure on limited existing farmland. There is no need to rely on purchasing soybeans from the United States to support the livestock industry.
Building large-scale wind and photovoltaic bases in the Gobi Desert is a key step in China's energy strategy transition. For example, the "blue ocean" of photovoltaics in the Kubuqi Desert that is currently being promoted can provide a large amount of clean power after completion, equivalent to saving tens of millions of tons of standard coal annually and reducing emissions of tens of millions of tons of carbon dioxide.
With food and energy, what kind of war would China fear from the White House?
