The rich grasslands of Inner Mongolia has been legendary amongst the pastoral & nomadic tribes for thousand of years. But, in a world shaped by the desire to gauge society through its ability to generate profit, this way of life is framed as “primitive”. In 2003,China introduced a 15y campaign to “retire livestock & restore the grasslands” in Inner Mongolia,Qinghai & Tibet. This extensive program blamed herders & their animals for land degradation & resettled millions of herders from the steppe into towns. This lead thousands of pastoralist unemployed & the loss of millenniums-old traditions. Here inside a big cloud of dust, after a big herd of horses past by.
