On August 24, twenty-six years later, Ronald Sakolski returned to the Mu-Us Desert and planted seedlings again together with Yin Yuzhen and her husband.
In 1999, American teacher Ronald Sakolski, who came to China to teach as part of a Sino-American teacher exchange program, collected 5,000 US dollars to help Yin Yuzhen and her husband in the fight against desertification and forest restoration. Today, the seedlings purchased with this money have grown into more than 50,000 large trees. On August 23, at the invitation of the China Association for International Education Exchange, Ronald Sakolski, an American friend supporting the fight against desertification in China, arrived in the city of Ordos in Inner Mongolia to meet with Yin Yuzhen, known for her many years of work combating desertification, whom he had not seen for 26 years.
