Today's tip for lunchbreak: Watch a video to plant a forest. Beau is a tree planter (generally funny guy), and he is going to use all proceeds from the watching of this video to plant trees.

As in: take all the money this generates in one month, spend it on trees and shove them in the ground himself. What's not to like?

Offsetting fossil fuel reserves by planting trees is not a viable strategy, analysis finds https://phys.org/news/2025-06-offsetting-fossil-fuel-reserves-trees.html

This is what 5 years of reforestation looks like

Once cleared for a palm oil monoculture, this forest is now lush and diverse again.

Together with Leuser Conservation Forum, we’re restoring the Leuser ecosystem in Indonesia — supporting natural regeneration and planting native trees with local communities.

#Scientists Show #Reforestation Helps Cool Planet Even More Than Thought

Atmospheric chemistry enhances the #climate mitigation potential of tree restoration

Study based on increase in #tree area of about 12M sq km, which is 135% of the area of the #US, and similar to estimates of the global tree restoration potential of 1 trillion trees. It is believed the planet has lost nearly half of its trees (about 3 trillion) since onset of industrialized society.

Treekeepers The Race for a Forested Future by Lauren E. Oakes, 2024

“A frank, probing, but ultimately hopeful book” (Elizabeth Kolbert) that shows how the path from climate change to a habitable future winds through the world’s forests.

Countries on the edge of the Sahara desert are reversing desertification by just digging half circles.

The ground in these places is too compact for water to soak in during wet season which leads to flooding but digging these holes gives the water a place to stop and soak in. And they’re pushing back the desert with this. By just digging holes.

"Reforestation Does Not Begin With Planting Trees" [8:23 min]

Quote by SS:
"May 27, 2025
This video was inspired by the episode from Wild Hope: Mission Impossible.
Reforesting unneeded farmland could be a huge key for getting the climate crisis under control. Which is why Pat Brown, creator of the Impossible Burger, is trying to figure out the best way to do it.

“People need more tools in the tool kit to actually mitigate climate change impact,” Dale said.

“It’s us saying, ‘This is going to be a tool.’ It’s been in front of us this whole time.”
