History

[edit]

The project is planned to take 10 years to complete the greening of an area of 2,067,200 Mu (~1,378 km²) of land, striving to make Lhasa an ecologically pleasant and livable capital city of the plateau.[3][4] The project stretches nearly 200 kilometers, involving Lhasa City, Liuwu, Doilungdêqên, Dagzê, Qüxü, Maizhokunggar, Lhünzhub and Shannan, Nagarzê, Gonggar and other 9 counties (districts) and 35 townships.[5] In 2022, Tibet officially issued the Overall Plan for the Greening Project of Lhasa's North and South Mountains (2021-2030).[6] The project planning period is 10 years (2021-2030), divided into two phases of implementation. The 2021-2025 for the near future, plans to complete the creation of 959,100 Mu (~639 km²) of forests; the 2026-2030 for the long term, plans to complete the creation of 1,108,100 Mu (~738 km²) of forests.[7] In June 2024, nearly 400,000 (266 km²) Mu of forestation had been completed in Tibet.[8][9]
