Under the trees stands Shi Jianyang whose grandfather and hundreds of villagers came 40 years ago with shovels and saplings to stop advancing sand.
At 29, Shi belongs to a new generation of desert-control workers equipped with drones, machines and remote irrigation systems. An earth auger can now do in a day what once required about 200 laborers, while a single phone can control drip irrigation across more than 1,000 mu (about 66.67 hectares) of woodland.
For the older Shi's generation, the challenge was getting trees to survive in moving dunes. For the grandson, it is figuring out how to make those forests healthier and more resilient for decades to come.
Their story captures a broader shift in desert control along the southern edge of the Maowusu Desert in northwest China's Shaanxi Province: turning shifting sand into forest was only the beginning.
In 1986, Shi Guangyin, Shi Jianyang's grandfather, led more than 300 villagers into Langwosha, a sandy area in Dingbian County in Yulin City. He had raised 60,000 yuan (about 17,377 U.S. dollars at the time) by selling his family's 84 sheep and borrowing from relatives and banks to contract 3,500 mu of barren sandy land.
The early setbacks were severe. Strong winds destroyed about 90 percent of the saplings in the first year, and about 80 percent of those planted the following year failed to survive.
After seeking advice from forestry experts, Shi and the villagers laid out checkerboard-shaped barriers on windward slopes to hold the sand in place, then planted trees, shrubs and grasses within them. Sapling survival rates rose to about 80 percent.
Over the next four decades, Shi and those working alongside him treated 250,000 mu of sandy and saline-alkali land, with more than 53 million trees and shrubs taking root.
Greening the Maowusu Desert is part of a much larger national undertaking. It is one of the three major battlefronts of China's Three-North Shelterbelt Forest Program, a decades-long effort to curb desertification across northern China.
China has made desertification control a national ecological priority. Since 2023, the country has stepped up efforts under the program, with greater emphasis on systematic restoration and on consolidating earlier gains.
Decades after the first trees took root, a new challenge emerged. Poplars planted decades ago for their rapid growth began reaching the end of their life cycle, with large numbers of trees dying, while forests dominated by a single species were more vulnerable to pests and disease.
Making a forest was one challenge. Keeping it healthy for another generation is another.
Shi Jianyang grew up watching his grandfather and father work to hold back the sand. His father, Shi Zhanjun, spent years planting trees alongside Shi Guangyin before dying in a road accident in 2008 while transporting saplings.
As a boy, Shi Jianyang sometimes resented the work that had taken his father. He spent summer holidays in makeshift tents in the sandy land, eating meals gritty with sand. During planting season, his father would return home with painful blisters in his mouth.
Yet he eventually chose forestry himself.
After studying forestry technology in university, Shi returned home in 2020 and began working in desert control. His team, initially made up of just seven or eight young locals, later brought in university graduates with expertise in soil science, landscaping and pest control.
The younger generation faced a different question: not simply how to make trees survive, but how to make a forest last.
Shi and his team spent more than 40 days in a 5,000-mu woodland setting up sample plots, measuring rainfall, studying soil microorganisms and tracking tree lodging. They proposed renewing aging forests with better-planned forest structures and expanded the planting of Mongolian pine, a long-lived evergreen species that had been successfully tested locally.
To date, about 50,000 mu of land has been planted with Mongolian pine. As some trees fail to survive and require replacement in subsequent planting seasons, the cumulative area of planting operations has reached about 65,000 mu.
Technology has also changed daily work. Drones patrol forests from the air, mechanized equipment dig planting pits, and irrigation can be managed remotely. Sapling survival rates, which Shi Guangyin's generation had raised to about 80 percent through improved sand-control and planting methods, have climbed further to about 92 percent with greater mechanization and more precise management.
Shi said the changes can be felt on the ground. Strong sandstorms have become rare, winds are weaker inside the forest, and the ground stays moist longer after rain. Summer days beneath the trees also feel cooler, while morning dew appears more often. The changes lead him to rethink desert control.
His approach also reflects a broader effort in China's desert regions to link ecological restoration with local livelihoods, giving communities a stronger economic stake in protecting restored land.
With his grandfather's support, Shi and his team have been looking for ways to make better use of the restored land as ecological conditions improve. They have developed potato seedlings suited to sandy soil, promoted greenhouse farming, and set up a livestock cooperative, while increasingly growing potatoes, watermelons and peppers on land once prone to losing water and nutrients.
Shi has also turned to livestreaming e-commerce to market potatoes and other local farm produce, while developing forest-based health and leisure projects. More than 2,000 local residents have seen their incomes rise steadily as farming, livestock breeding and other businesses have developed.
"We used to fear the sand and keep away from it. Now we understand it and know how to make use of it," Shi Guangyin said. "Today, there are opportunities to make a living everywhere in this sandy land."
Across Yulin, forest coverage has risen from 1.8 percent in 1949 to 34.8 percent, while shifting dunes that once encroached on villages have been brought under control.
For Shi Jianyang, however, the green landscape is not proof that the work is finished. "Planting a tree is not difficult," he said. "The difficult part is looking after it for decades."
The grandfather generation learned how to stop the sand. The young generation is learning how to make what grew there last.

。 2026年8月23日,著名战地记者唐师曾因病在北京逝世,享年65岁。这位曾在新华社任职、五赴巴格达的“硬汉记者”,最终没能战胜白血病,永远地告别了他深爱的世界。 唐师曾的离世,不仅是中国新闻界的巨大损失,更让我们不得不重新审视一个被许多人遗忘的战争遗留问题——
贫铀弹。 唐师曾,1961年生于北京。1983年从北京大学国际政治系毕业后,先到中国政法大学任教,后来考入新华社,成为一名记者。

二 | 在同行眼中,他是“独行侠”,是“战地之鹰”,更是一个为了新闻可以豁出性命的“疯子”。

三 | 1991年海湾战争爆发,唐师曾成为新华社第一批深入战地采访的记者之一。他孤身一人,穿梭在沙漠与炮火之间。他五赴巴格达,用胶片记录下了“沙漠风暴”行动中最真实、最残酷的瞬间。 在战场上,唐师曾以其勇敢和敏锐闻名。他曾亲眼目睹被贫铀弹击毁的坦克残骸,而据他后来在书中记述,自己在巴格达期间,甚至喝着被贫铀弹污染的自来水。多年后他曾在采访中感叹,当年若知道有贫铀弹,“说什么也不会往那儿闯”。 在海湾战争中,以美国为首的多国部队大量使用了贫铀弹。

四 | 这种武器利用贫化铀合金的高密度和硬度,能够轻易击穿坦克的复合装甲。在击穿瞬间,弹头会剧烈燃烧,产生超过6000°C的高温,对目标内部进行毁灭性的杀伤。

五 | 然而,这种“高效”的武器背后,隐藏着极其严重的副作用。 贫铀弹爆炸后,会产生大量的氧化铀和贫化铀微粒。这些微粒以气溶胶的形式漂浮在空气中,通过呼吸进入人体后,会在骨骼、肾脏、肝脏中沉积,持续释放微弱的放射性,对人体的造血功能造成不可逆的损伤。

六 | 据统计,仅在海湾战争期间,美军就投下了超过100万枚贫铀弹,总重量达数百吨。

七 | 而在随后的波黑战争、科索沃战争、伊拉克战争以及阿富汗冲突中,美英等国依然在大量使用这种武器。 战场赋予了唐师曾无上的荣誉,但也彻底摧毁了他的身体。 1997年至1998年间,年仅36岁的唐师曾突然感到身体极度虚弱,频繁高烧不退。

八 | 经过医院诊断,他患上了再生障碍性贫血。医生在检查后发现,他的骨髓遭受了严重的辐射损伤,巨幼细胞增多,造血功能永久受损。 唐师曾本人及公众普遍认为,这与他在海湾战争期间暴露在贫铀弹污染环境中有直接关系。

九 | 他曾对媒体表示:“我的病,是在海湾地区被核辐射污染的产物。” 需要说明的是,这一说法并未得到官方的医学鉴定或权威结论证实,主要基于唐师曾个人的经历判断和主观认知。由于时间久远、战场证据难以追溯,他回国后试图认定工伤时,在法律和程序上遇到了极大困难,最终未能完成。

十 | 随后,他又出现重度抑郁,白血球和血小板数值长期远低于健康标准。他退出一线,开始了长达二十余年与病魔的抗争。

十一 | 唐师曾的遭遇并非个例。 在美国,根据美国医学研究所等机构在2010年及之后的研究评估,约有25万名(占参战美军总数约三分之一)曾参与1991年海湾战争的美国军人患有长期的多症状慢性疾病,即所谓的“海湾战争综合征”。

十二 | 但这还不是最惨痛的代价。

十三 | 那些生活在伊拉克费卢杰和巴士拉的普通百姓,承受了更加难以想象的苦难。 数据触目惊心:1991年海湾战争前,伊拉克的癌症发病率约为每10万人40例;到了2005年,这一数字飙升至每10万人至少1600例,战后癌症死亡率更是达到了战前的10倍。

十四 | 战后,伊拉克南部地区出现了大量患有严重先天性缺陷、恶性血液疾病和脑肿瘤的婴儿。据统计,伊拉克如今有高达15% 的城市出生儿童患有先天缺陷,其中5% 不幸夭折。 令人遗憾的是,战争并未远去。在今天跌宕起伏的俄乌局势中,交战双方依然在频繁使用贫铀武器。 历史正在重演,那片土地上的平民,恐怕也将要承受同样的、需要几代人来偿还的痛苦。 唐师曾走了。他用生命为我们揭示了战争的真相,也用自己的余生,承受了贫铀弹带来的切肤之痛。 战争结束了,但伤害从未停止。

十五 | 我们或许无法制止战争,但至少应该记住:那些遗落在战场上的“隐形杀手”,并不会随着硝烟的散去而消失。它们会藏在土壤里、水源中,以及一代又一代无辜者的身体里,继续“作战”。

十六 | 愿唐师曾先生安息。愿世界再无贫铀弹,再无战争。返回,查看更多。
