Trees absorb CO2 by storing the C (Carbon) and ejecting O2 (Oxygen). Other carbon capture solutions are being developed, but reforestation is by far the most efficient and affordable solution and probably over 100 times cheaper than the next best solution.
Another extraordinary difference is the quantity of other amazing benefits of planting trees. Trees serve as habitats to millions of species, bring revenue to local populations, help us get food, fodder, and medicine, clean our air from toxins, purify our rivers and water resources- click here to find out more. Plus, they are natural.
But today we are losing trees every year because of deforestation. Approximately 17% of climate change is caused by our loss of trees, an impact on global greenhouse gas emissions even greater than the entire transport sector. So we cannot pretend to fight climate change without solving deforestation.
Therefore, planting trees is essential for our planet.
