Ronald Sakolsky (R) sniffs a sapling after planting it with Yin Yuzhen in the Maowusu Sandy Land in North China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, August 24, 2026. Retired US teacher Ronald Sakolsky revisited the Maowusu Sandy Land on Monday and planted sapling with his friend Yin Yuzhen, a national model worker who has been planting trees here for four decades, as well as Yin's husband Bai Wanxiang. Their story began in 1999, when Sakolsky taught English at a school in Central China's Henan Province under a teachers' exchange program between the two countries. After watching a television news report featuring Yin's tireless work, he was deeply moved and raised 5,000 US dollars to help Yin and her husband in their afforestation efforts against desertification. The saplings bought and planted with that donation have since grown into a forest of more than 50,000 towering trees. (Photo: Xinhua)
