SocietyYellow River runs clearer after decades of conservation

The Hukou Waterfall, once shown as a muddy torrent on China’s 50-yuan banknotes, now has clearer waters. Decades of Yellow River management have included flood-control works, soil-erosion prevention and coordinated water allocation; the share of basin monitoring sites rated for good water quality rose from 59.1% in 2016 to 93.2% in 2025.
