9. Well were this land to plant the forest going to come from?
Edited on Fri Dec-16-05 07:08 PM by hankthecrank
The land that we have is all there is. No great amounts of land to put big forest in any way! So your study is just a dreaming. I would like it if we could. Because your study doesn't count all the ways trees help. But think we can take back land to plant new forest or even replant old one is not going to happen. So why worry about something that's not going to happen. Man just cuts it down. Never plants back. Some tree crops are replanted but most times just cut it down!!!

Also one study doesn't make it fact. Asked the same question to Arbor day people see what you get.

They are behind planting trees. In cities trees work to bring the temp down. I quess we just want to put another strip mine in its place or oil well yeah that will help with the heat.

Also after trees are gone topsoil washes away. So what are you going to replant into!!
