trees are only part of the solution. restoring wetlands and watersheds is another one that I rarely hear these eco-friendly people talk about.

[@ADUAquascaping]

Well, that can be our calling. I recently worked in a watershed division studying point and non-point source phosphorus pollution entering water bodies. Massive mapping/GIS project, field sampling and analysis, lab analysis, gained funding, led a team, wrote protocols, solutions, and surface hydrology methods. Easier said than done. It was a lot of work. The lake was huge. The trees' evapotranspiration can lower daytime temperatures by 2-3 degrees C, but that isn't really the point of mitigating the urban heat island effect. Heat island effects are measured at nighttime. This is because of thermal emissivity, specific heat capacity, heat sinks, and rural temperature comparisons. Evapotranspiration, which leads to evaporative cooling, can lower nighttime temperatures by 12 degrees C. And why didn't they mention reducing stormwater runoff pollution and increasing on-site detention of water, which leads to increased groundwater. We aren't really doing anything special. We're just mimicking and restoring nature.

Mossy Earth is doing some good wetland restoration projects. Definitely some people are aware of their important role in the ecosystem. Near where I grew up, there was a refuge called the Great Swamp that was almost turned into a massive 10000 acre airport in the 60s, but environmental groups were able to block it, and it's still there today :)

[@QuitworkBehappy]

trees are part of the problem. They reduce the planet's albedo causing further warming. They also produce and release methane...a far more potent greenhouse gas than CO2.

There are more wetland restoration projects in the coastal regions where people are facing floods due to the rising of the sea level.

Trees are our best environmental friends. They store CO2 in the soil and filter air for us. They do more good to us than harm. So, please everyone, plant a tree if you can. Big change starts with a small step. If we all act and work together, we absolutely can avert the catastrophic outcome.

Grasslands are more reliable than trees not saying trees are bad but grasslands are the least protected biome on earth

[@someguy2135]

@@jacobsukovaty520 I was glad to learn that grasslands are also carbon sinks, but the carbon they store in the soil has a limited amount, so regenerative grazing is not the answer. Returning land to both grassland and forests should be the goal. Switching to a strictly plant based food production model would free up seventy five percent of the land now used to produce food! That is how we do it.

[@yodieyuh]

@@Lorin-GabrielLeaua-fm1lw I disagree, due to personal experience. Have 30' and up trees outside of 'falling into my house' range and 15-20' trees within 'falling into my house' range. My 35' tall banyan tree complex deflects winds from Category 3 and 4 winds. During two separate eye walls I stood outside and watched 120+ mph winds roar over my house 35' overhead with about 20mph winds at house level. And then at least another 4 cat 2+ storms but not their eyewalls. My 30' live oaks deflect the wind from the other sides. My house and roof remain undamaged. Houses in the neighborhood that are in the open suffer more damage. One portion of the banyan complex fell in Jeanne, due to it being about 10 feet from a 15' deep canal that gimped the one portions root base. Using trees as windbreaks was very common in Florida up until the 80's. Mostly Australian Pines were used to protect orange groves, and they worked.

[@CHMichael]

@yodieyuh6077 your secret is not letting them grow past 35 ft . That's when they get you . I second your experience. Made it through Ian( cat 5 ) without any damage to my 80-year-old house. Trees buffering the wind was a big contributor.

[@DiakosDelvin]

@@Lorin-GabrielLeaua-fm1lw Trees have been in the business of of staying upright for longer than we've been out of caves. As long as we give them healthy soil to grow in with lots of roots holding it together and buddy trees to share the wind-strain it'll be fine, and if we really want to be safe we can trip dead branches. The problem arises when we plant solitary trees of decorative but weak species in loose "convenient" soil, destroy all deep rooted plants around them in favor of a shallow lawn.

My dad and I planted our first tree this year in Warsaw, Poland. We planted it in a lawn in our neighborhood. There was so little rain that I kept watering it weekly unit beginning of October. I expect I'll have to water it regularly throughout next spring and summer, until it grows bigger and stronger. I'm planning to plant more next year. If all of us plant just one tree and then take care of it for a while until it grows strong roots, we would resolve the issue of deforestation.

Interesting that drought tolerant plants, particularly cacti and others that function through CAM only transpire at night to avoid excessive loss during sweltering daytime highs. It would be interesting to investigate how daytime and night time transpiring plants effect overall micro climate and perhaps also how these processes manifest in the rhizosphere through physical, chemical and biological processes.

[@ADUAquascaping]

​@@hhwippedcreamGood ideas. We can't forget the soil! It seems cacti have high reflectance and don't conduct heat? instead of having a high [0.98] thermal emissivity, such as most C3 plants. This means that they wouldn't be classified with other plants when producing NDVI/SAVI calibrated images. Do you know the equation for measuring healthy succulents using remote sensing data?

The logging industry clear cuts and moves on but if trees were treated like a crop or live stock we wouldn't have a clear cutting problem. In Canada some forests took 100 years to clear cut and no one thought to replant behind them as they moved up the road they had the government make so they could access more trees. That road and swath they clear cut could be used for a thousand years if they had bothered to replace what they took out and the new forest properly tended grows faster. They had the nerve to ask the province to make another hundred miles of road so the could keep clear cutting. Forestry farming should be mandated for logging industries, it's in their best financial interest to have permanent infrastructure everything local for life, like farmers. Cut it, replant it, grow it, mill it in one place and never have to move to a new location.

"Can trees stop climate change?" Why this single minded approach? We keep searching for this one miracle solution to climate change. Seems unlikely that a climate system so complex we are not even close to fully understanding it would respond as we hope to these simple Forest Gump solutions.

See anything in moderation is good & anything in excess is bad ! What you eat is not the problem, how you are eating is the problem ! Hope you understood what I mean & if you don't understand you will slowly !☝️ Thankyou God bless you dear' 🤍🙏

@@saimandebbarma You-"... anything in moderation is good & anything in excess is bad !" It is true that the dose makes the poison, but although a small enough amount of animal products won't kill you, the advantages of advancing the vegan movement by becoming vegan and recommending it to others are significant.

There is no answer in the documentary about the question in the title. So, can they stop the climate change? No. They are helping with that though and are very good for people in other ways

[@pargevkarapetyan2251]

Thank you grate peoples planting trees.I appreciate you doing such important things for our beautiful planet 👍👏

[@robheusd]

Trees are very valuable in combatting topsoil erosion and desertification, cliate change causes more severe drought and more severe rainfall, so can help mitigate the consequences of climate change. However, most often direct human actions (like chopping trees) are an important part of the problem, changing that practices and planting more trees help solve that problem. To capture CO2, trees are less valuable, per m2 algae can capture 20x as much carbon as trees.

Great to see these Green Warriors - without trees we are not here....time to do these things in a war footing to save earth.

Hey DW documentary Greenery is very important, modernism architecture, is actually a horrible architecture has prevent little to no greenery in cities and it actually impacts us the grey dull, simple, glass, and etc horrible non beautiful buildings dont have built traditional beauty in the architecture have a massive impact on us actually has caused nothing but worsening mental health and such people are starting to wake up to the fake were tired of old horrible boring and souless looking buildings. I love for u guys to make something on that topic!

The modern architecture in Europe has been integrating green spaces and using better materials for some time now. It’s the US that needs to “modernize” to a more sustainable future.

This is sweet, necessary, inspiring and timely. But can we talk about naming? "Tiny Forest" is an oxymoron. It's a woodlot, which has none of the dynamics of an actual forest. That requires scale.

[@maxiculture]

Planting trees in cities is insufficient. Allowing forests and woodlands to regrow is what is needed. It can reverse climate warming. It has done it before.

[@TrentSpriggs-n7c]

Superb media.

[@oliverhiestand7098]

More trees nearly anywhere is a good and pleasant development. But cities have another big problem sewage. Growing algae binds much more co2 and produces more O2 then trees. Making biofuels, biogas or fertilizer from algae.

[@BJAvegan]

Not eating animals is the first thing we can do because animal agriculture is the largest contributor to habitat loss.

As for the [Bark Beetle]: is, there a transmitting beacon that can be fitted to the beetle is, there a thermal tracking material that can be painted to Bark Beetles so that an observer can record the movements thus, if Beetle paths can be predicted: can, “Sticky Bug Paper Strips” be wrapped around tree, in places most likely for the Beetle to cross and become neutralized

[@aleksanderkuncwicz7277]

Farms can probably cool the land to farms because of the moisture,and bricks are just made of mud people could save trees if they use bricks and have longer lasting homes and apartments.

18:45 - 25.000 euro for plants to fit that micro tiny piece of area. That is crazy. All that equipment, tech, machinery and using energy to blending special soil. This forest emmit more Co2 from being created there than not was there. In few year, by that way, these trees will be to big to be there anyway and has to be removed. This is crazy. I planted my 10.000m2 forest on a field last year with 2400 trees, oak, ash, beech and birch for less than 3000Euro. My field is old farmland. trees will grow in the most poor soil and dont need special soil as forexample kitchen garden.

[@agustinussiahaan6669]

In Indonesia, I criticized planting trees in the town's pedestrians and the government's building vicinity. Why? Those trees just to convince the passer that we have a green country. But actually they have destroyed our forest by burning it and converting it into palm trees.

Oxytree is special plant that consumes particularily a lot of CO2

This is how to slow down climate change: 1) Switch from fossil fuels to clean energy 2) Stop or drastically reduce deforestation and plant more trees 3) Stop overfishing

Watching this video I see people socializing by sub-culture. For example, German hippies, look like California Hippies etc. A reason why East WestNorth and South can’t get on the same page is because we can’t tel what the sub cultures are in every country because they already have older established culture by geography/religion. The West isn’t really anyone, it’s everyone who can afford it. The East has subculture- personal choice. I kissed a Japanese Hippie when he visited Hollywood, CA! The South has subculture- look how American music got around and it has undermined Middle East culture but fortunately people from all over the world went to college in The West….. just human beings in the end. What’s the purpose of living again?

[@danwatson171]

Trees could have stopped climate change if we planted them about 40 years ago. Now even the greatest planting effort won’t prevent climate collapse. People need to face the fact that extinction is unavoidable at this point and stop giving the public false hope.
