Isn't it crazy how Americans reduce nearly every issue into revolving around them and their problems?

The people who farm trees replant them so they can harvest again ib 20 years, do farmers replant after a corn crop? THE TREE FARMER replants. This is hippi dippy bullshit.

Cool. But that article is absolutely dripping with propoganda.

As we all know, an area almost equivalent in size to South Africa i.e.129 million hectares of forest have been lost from the Earth forever since 1990.
lost from the Earth forever
And then the rest of this story contradicts this rhetoric.

Good observation. What I couldn't stand is the ploys to tug on emotions. I became disgusted and gave up once it seemed clear there was no real meat left to the story.

Trees multiply quickly to fill in spaces between them. So if you plant a line of trees 10 metres apart within a couple of years a tree shoot up somewhere in the radius of each tree and they propagate from there. That's how forests grow. Trees propagate and fill the spaces between them over time. All they would have had to do is plan a few thousand trees or even just spread seeds and wait. The tree growth will propagate exponentially until density limits growth. It's still a massive undertaking and an immense amount of work though.

The couple hired around 24 workers in the beginning and planted the first seed in December 1999. Later this organization was joined by numerous volunteers over the years.
So, it looks like a lot of people were involved in the effort but the couple was the driving force behind the forest restoration. Dedicating 20 years of your life is still a major undertaking and the results are impressive. It just shows what a few people can manage when they apply themselves wholeheartedly to a task.
