When you picture climate change solutions, massive wind turbines, and sleek electric vehicles probably come to mind. While cutting-edge technologies are important, natural solutions such as planting trees and smart farming practices have the incredible potential not only to curb but also to combat the effects of climate change. It’s time to embrace nature’s own innovative climate plan.

Natural climate solutions involve expanding conservation, restoration, and sustainable land management practices in order to sequester carbon dioxide, the most prevalent greenhouse gas. The sequestration potential of trees alone is huge. According to a recent study, the planting of 1 trillion trees worldwide would offset an entire decade of carbon dioxide emissions.
