What is the solution to climate change? Can trees actually capture carbon on a global scale? Do we have to engineer a whole new type of technology to combat the effects of global warming? What are restoration projects and photo interpretation? Did you know that over 1.6 billion hectares are available for forest restoration, right now? Find out even more in this video!
You’ll learn about restoration projects, which are projects that aim to restore our precious ecosystems. If the wrong tree or the wrong soil is used, then the ecosystem will not be restored! Scientists need to understand the ecosystem they’re working with, and they’re using photo interpretation to do so. Why is this important? Well, the more trees, the more carbon they capture! Forest restoration could be one of the great solutions to climate change! Every single tree helps. Take the quiz and earn points towards a SEED to plant your own tree.
Who knew that there was such a great solution right under our noses? We here at ForestNation agree with Crowther Lab’s belief that both local and global tree restoration can help reduce the effects of carbon on global warming. This is not something for non-scientists to ignore–we can all do something to help our planet fight climate change! In fact, you can even do something right now. Take our quiz, and plant a tree! Spread the word and together we can help Mother Earth!
Big thanks to Crowther Lab for this insightful video.Special thanks to Hope Tsai for creating this quiz.
