Greening China: successes and failures
The greening of China began with the founding of the People`s Republic, and it has not stopped since. The massive tree-planting programmes of the past century mean that China now has a greater area of man-made forests than any other country. In 2003 artificial forests covered over 1% of China`s total land mass for the first time. By 2006 artificial forest coverage had reached 520,000 square kilometres.
