Forests - Natural Carbon Sequestration

Could simply planting more trees solve the Climate Change Crisis? Scientists think that planting billions of trees is one of the biggest and cheapest ways to solve our climate crisis. Research published in the journal Science in 2019 declares that a worldwide planting program could remove up to ⅔ of human caused greenhouse gas emissions - a figure many call “mind-blowing.” Beyond planting, other key considerations are how to manage and harvest forests, how to use carbon offset markets to help preserve them, the role of fire in this time of increasing mega fires and what we all can do to help get more trees on the ground. Join Electrify Now for a fascinating discussion with two panellists who are on the front lines of forest management who will discuss the vital importance of forests in solving climate change and sequestering carbon.
