That's a rosy, invalid assumption and equivocation. Climate drying, and effectively biome changes in the direction of desertification, across much of western North America and other parts of the world due to climate change isn't conducive to replacing biomass lost to forest fires caused by multi-year droughts.
- heavyset_go 5y agoI'm assuming this is done as a part of an effort to actually regrow and maintain forests as natural carbon sinks, and not some weird thing where trees are grown in the desert.
- stooliepidgin 5y agoI don't know what point your comment attempts to make. > not some weird thing where trees are grown in the desert. This is being tried in Africa. [0]. You can't "regrow" forests if the climate changes too much. Differences in rain, temperature, and/or soil won't be conducive to the survival or thriving of trees if they exceed their tolerable range by too much. They're not carbon sinks because they catch fire. I don't think you understand that forests aren't going to "solve" climate change AND that the climate is changing, which means biomes change, specifically desertification. 0. https://www.greatgreenwall.org/about-great-green-wall/ https://www.greatgreenwall.org/about-great-green-wall/
