Just watched this documentary by David Attenborough [1] the other day. It's unfortunate that still to this day, scientists and researches have to emphasize the phrase 'climate change'.
It's sickening to know that rainforests are being bulldozed off by their hundreds of square kilometers every single day. And it's even more sickening that many think 'reforestation' is going to help this cause.
Rainforests are an ecosystem with thousands of different plants and trees, which contribute to a healthy and flourishing environment. Thinking that you can replace this with a few different species is not the way to approach this problem.
We really have to start looking at these issues from an individual point of view. We have to consider the fact that it might be our individual behavior that's going to inspire change in others.
World's Elite has proven time and time again that they do not care for the planet, not unless there is big money involved.

- kryogen1c 8y agoYou seem to be conflating two different issues. Eliminating plant and animal diversity is dangerous for various reasons, but has little to do with climate change. As to deforestation as a mechanism of CO2 removal vis a vis climate change, there are more trees now than there have ever been.

- simplesleeper 8y agoreforestation has been ongoing at a massive scale for quite a while now - I drove on a motorway for days across Brazil, for example, and only saw forests of trees lined in perfect rows by the road.
