known
as
the
Three
North
Shelterbelt
Forest
Program.
SFGA
has
aims
to
grow
at
least
6.7
million
hectares
of
forest
every
year
in
the
next
15
years.
China
has
tried
to
restore
grasslands.
Furthermore,
it
has
also
used
strict

protection
methods
and
banned
all
commercial
logging
(商业伐木)
since
last
August.

program
known

the
Three
North
Shelterbelt
Forest
Program.)
Q4:
How
does
Ant
Forest
contribute

areas
in

Ant
Forest,
an
Alipay
mobile
payment
app,
plants
real
trees
for
users
who
get
“green
energy”
by
engaging
in
low-carbon
activities.)
III.
Reading
With
the
efforts
of
China’s
government
and
its
people,
the
rate
of
forest
coverage
(森林覆盖率)
in
China
has
reached
22.96
percent,
compared
to
5.05
percent
40
years
ago,
according
to
a
recent
report
from
the
State
Forestry
and
Grassland
Administration
(SFGA).
Over
the
past
four
decades,
China
planted
billions
of
trees
as
part
of
its
fight
against
expanding
deserts,
mostly
in
its
north.
Each
year,
people
sow
seedlings
(播种)
over
an
area
nearly
the
size
of
Ireland,
according
to
Nature.
In
1978,
China
began
a
nationwide
tree-planting
program
known
as
the
Three
North
Shelterbelt
Forest
Program,
also
known
as
“the
Great
Green
Wall”.
It
has
helped
to
plant
more
than
66
billion
trees
across
13
provinces
in
the
country’s
north
to
act
as
windbreaks
(防风林),
according
to
China
Daily.
Since
2018,
SFGA
has
made
more
efforts
to
build
a
greener
country.
It
aims
to
grow
at
least
6.7
million
hectares
of
forest
every
year
in
the
next
15
years.
Besides
planting
more
trees,
China
has
tried
to
restore
grasslands.
Furthermore,
it
has
also
used
strict
forest
protection
methods
and
banned
all
commercial
logging
(商业伐木)
since
last
August.
The
high-speed
growth
of
forests
cannot
happen
without
public
participation.
For
example,
Ant
Forest,
an
Alipay
mobile
payment
app,
plants
real
trees
for
users
who
get
“green
energy”
by
engaging
in
low-carbon
activities.
Since
2016,
it
has
helped
to
plant
about
122
million
trees
in
China’s
driest
areas.
United
Nations
Environment
Programme
Executive
Director
Erik
Solheim
praised
China
as
“one
of
the
most
successful
countries
worldwide
in
greening
the
desert.”

logging
are
methods
China
has

version:
The
rate
of
forest
coverage
in
China
has
increased
by
4
times
what
it
was
four
decades
ago,
which
benefits
from
China’s
tree-planting
program
like
“the
Great
Green
Wall”.
Besides,
restoring
grasslands
and
banning
commercial
logging
are
also
helpful.
Public
participation
plays
a
role
in
greening
the
country
as
well,
of
which
Ant
Forest
is
a
good
example.
Accordingly,
China’s
effort
in
afforestation(植树造林)
has
won
itself
a
good
fame
globally.(75words)
