Pakistani province plants one billion trees to help slow down effects of global warming | The Independent

Awesome.

The term global warming is often used as a code word for a global economy after oil. A planet "hotter" means more conflict.

Nobody plants 1 billion trees in the name of cooling down the planet. They did it to have trees to harvest in 50 years since their pipelines will be dry by then.

"global warming" just helps pay for those trees in 2017.

To bad we can't organize something similar

No they planted 1 billion trees in the name of cooling down their own country...trees absorb heat and a billion of them makes a difference...not to mention the co2 scrub they provide that works in synergy with the heat absorbtion...

If every country were to do so we would love in a better world...but I guess trump knows better with his coal surface mining and oil fracking so the 1% can buy their 24th yacht...

Which countries pay for those trees?

Sorry, but that's how it is.

Everything in this world is ultimately about the $$$$$$$

Planting these trees increases the land resource value of Pakistan, which allows them to obtain international loans using this new collateral.

^^^^ Full of judgement, hate & negativity

What a sad fake life :(

Totally awesome :thumbsup

If it was one community planting trees for shade across town I would believe it.

But ONE BILLION trees?

That is so awesome! Go Pakistan!
