COP27: Growing a forest the right way
Tree-planting schemes don\u2019t always work, so what\u2019s the best way to do forest restoration?
Projects around the world are planting huge numbers of trees as part of the fight against climate change. But not all of these schemes are successful \u2013 leaving dead saplings and wasted money in their wake. People Fixing the World works out how to do it right.\n \nIn West Africa, we look at how farmers have reforested and restored huge areas without planting a single seed. In Brazil, we visit a project that has planted more than 600,000 trees in the endangered Atlantic Forest.\n \nMyra Anubi also hears about new satellite technology which can help us map reforestation across the world, to give a clearer picture of what is and isn\u2019t working when it comes to growing trees.
