No single organism has a greater capability to stabilize our climate than a tree. The leaf canopy captures carbon from the atmosphere, turns it into fuel and sends it down the vast root system to feed the living soil. Deforestation is shrinking the global supply and we need far more trees, not less. Only one third of the world’s land has enough annual rainfall to sustain a healthy forest; where they can grow they are crucial because a covered planet is a healthy planet.
