China's Loess Plateau

from Hope in a changing climate - for iPad/Mac/PC Hosted by The Open University

Loess is a thin soil. When it is dry it is whisked up into great sand storms, which blight Beijing and other cities. As part of the restoration project farmers were paid to keep their cattle off the hillsides. The results are astounding, the farmers now grow high value cash crops and the air is cleaner.
