What happens after planting trees?

What happens after planting millions of trees? In this episode, Fei Fei speaks with Lei Xiangdong from the Chinese Academy of Forestry about what effective forest management really means- and why it's about much more than tree-planting. This episode explores how China's approach has evolved over decades, what the "four treasures" of forests (referring to the four functions that forests can play) are and how today's focus is shirting toward forest quality, biodiversity and long-term resilience. Tune in to learn how managing forests widely is just as important as planting them. We also have an episode dedicated to China's efforts in combating desertification — feel free to check it out via the link. https://radio.cgtn.com/podcast/news/5/How-China-fights-desertification/2714141
