If done incorrectly, it can cause ecological harm and provide little benefit. That doesn't mean we shouldn't do it, just that it should be done carefully.

- michaelwww 4y agoThat's just common sense. You don't waste your time planting trees where they won't grow or will crowd out existing plants.
- Night_Thastus 4y agoSomething something about common sense isn't all that common. :) China has had some issues with planting absolutely massive monocultures that end up looking nice on paper but being bad in the long run.
- michaelwww 4y agoThe CCP aren't exactly experts on the environment. They are quite careless about disposing toxic waste in rivers. A friend of mine told me this story recently. While he was working for Apple, he visited a factory and the owner started crying in his presence how Apple was telling them they would be dropped if they didn't stop polluting and he said it was too late, that the land they were on was toxic and Apple dropping them would put hundreds out of work.
