Ordos a leader

in desertification efforts

鄂尔多斯：荒漠化防治的引领者

Ordos, one of the 12 major subdivisions of the Inner Mongolia autonomous region, has wowed international visitors with its advanced efforts in green practices for fighting desertification, along with other achievements in modern development.

鄂尔多斯，内蒙古自治区下辖的地级市，凭借在防治荒漠化领域的先进举措和现代化发展方面的成就，给国际访客留下了深刻印象。

Diplomats, think tank scholars and journalists from China and abroad got a first-hand sense of the city's charm and its progress in socioeconomic and green develop-ment during a Sept27-28 mediatour themed "Green Empowerment and Creating a Future Together: Practices of Chinese Modernization in Ordos."

9月27日至28日，在“绿色赋能 共创未来”——海外高端人士看中国式现代化鄂尔多斯实践活动中，中外嘉宾、智库学者和记者亲身感受了鄂尔多斯的绿色发展实践。

“It's the first time we have come to Inner Mongolia. I didn't expect to see such a beautiful, open and modern city,”said Salvador Moncada, ambassador of Honduras to China.

“这是我们第一次来鄂尔多斯，没想到能看到这样一个美丽、开放和现代化的城市。”洪都拉斯驻华大使萨尔瓦多·恩里克·蒙卡达说道。

“I think this kind of infrastructure can really help fight desertification and improve the fight against climate change and improve the ecosystem of the globe, especially for arid regions,” said Akinwale Ogunrinde, associate researcher at the Northwest Institute of Eco-Environment and Resources at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. “I believe the neighboring cities are also benefiting from these projects. Other arid regions in the world need to come and learn about the technologies and infrastructures here in Ordos to improve their environment and go on the path of sustainability.”

参观达特拉光伏发电应用领跑基地后，中国科学院西北生态环境资源研究院副研究员阿⾦瓦莱表示，“这些基础设施能够有效应对荒漠化，助力应对全球气候变化，改善全球生态系统，尤其对干旱地区具有重要意义。同时，我相信邻近的城市也会从这些项目中受益。世界上其他干旱地区应当学习借鉴鄂尔多斯先进的技术和经验，共同探索生态环境改善的可持续发展之路。”

“The cashmere factory is unparalleled in the world. All the products are of top quality and the cashmere fabric is very comfortable to the touch. The factory has more than 40,000 employees, which means that Ordos has made great contributions to pushing forward China's development and promoting China to become a modern, socialist and advanced country by leading its enterprises, employees and factories,” Ramos said.

委内瑞拉玻利瓦尔共和国驻华使馆公使衔参赞拉莫斯说：“鄂尔多斯罕台现代羊绒产业园这座全球独一无二的羊绒工厂，4万多名员工用顶尖的产品践行了在推动中国现代化进程中的责任和担当”。
