    This is interesting. When I built my house on 5 acres 20 years ago I planted over 500 trees. I used native trees..but lots of different varieties. Seeing this video makes me realize I accidentally did the right thing..cuz 20 years later my forest is awesome!

    I'm a researcher in ecological modelling and I think it's so great that you're not only educating people but also doing it very very interstingly and scienticly correct. I had the exact same thoughts on the team trees project but came to the same conclusion: Any (temporary) carbon sequestration effort is important! (Though maximizing effectiveness isn't certainly bad either :D)

    I'm sure you already know that we would have to plant twice the amount of trees per day for a year just to sequester the amount of carbon the US generates. This amount triple to sequester the amount of carbon the rest of the planet generates. This project is nothing more than a nice gesture but in no way should it be promoted that it will have any significant impact on the fight for climate change.

    Both methods work. Usually tunnels are cheaper, though you have to consider landscape and maintenance. Tunnels can get blocked, it can be hard to dig through rock, though it can be even harder to tunnel through mud without it filling. There are very capable specialists deciding which technique to use, the important thing for the rest of us is that we push to have forests connected regardless of connection method.

    This model is intresting. However in places like here in the EU, even in locales where 70% of the land is covered by forests, its ALL managed forests. That are cut for wood then replanted. Apex predators were driven exctinct - by eradication programs in the middle ages, and early modern age - and are now slowly creeping back, and in regards to roads, well unpassable roads, like highways, are mandated to have elevated bridges covered with plants (instead of blacktop) to allow animals to pass through.

    Was just about to mention that. Switzerland is exactly in your mentioned situation. Seems like we are years ahead of places like the US. And yet, as the wolve has returned in Switzerland. Many alpine farmers want to get rid of them again, whilst they are actually incredibly precious to the entire ecosystem of forests. Instead of giving the shepards dog that are specially trained to scare of wolves they want to shoot them. In Slovenia, all shepards have dogs that are larger than wolves and protect their sheep herds and so they face no losses whilst not killing any of the apex predators. They found a great solution. And yet, in Switzerland, politics don't even look beyond thr borders to see what other countries have achieved but instead try to work out their own useless solutions. Sometimes, I really feel like countries aren't able to look beyond the horizon for solutions. Instead, they stay focused on their own little place and try to re-invent the wheel. It's such wasted time. Also, we should be looking back at our ancestors, not even tgat far back, who knew how to live in harmony with the environment. But no, we need to find nee ways, whilst we could actually just look a few years back and see how we did things previously which in fact weren't that bad!

    Dang, this is what I get from starting to write a comment before watching the entire video.... xD. Well, anyways, there's some more info here, so I'll just post it anyways. Here's something interesting that people might not know about. You don't even need to go very far from the Amazon forest to see effects of desertification. Right next to it, in the northeastern Brazil states, it's right there. Amazon rainforest is the most famous and known rainforest in Brazil, but we have another one called Atlantic rainforest. It used to stretch from the coast of northeast states all the way down to the southernmost brazilian states. The area in between both rainforests also used to be richer in biodiversity. Because of a mix of monoculture with coffee and sugarcane plantations, exploitation for wood, urban development, cattle grazing and some other stuff during the colonization era when there were more slaves than citizens in Brazil, huge huge swaths of the Atlantic forest got torn down, degraded down to poorer ecosystems, with some spots having the soil so depleted that they became deserts, particularly up north. During the colonization period the north and northeastern states in Brazil were the richest ones. Nowadays they are the poorest. Of course this has in part to do with an economy that started based on primary resource extraction and evolved towards urbanization, but it's compounded with the fact that centuries of exploration left northeastern states depleted of natural resources. And this is something very important to understand for those interested in what's happening in the Amazon forest, how things work in the north of Brazil, and how people should think when trying to help the region. There was a huge focus this year around our current president, blaming him for the fires, and polarizing the discussion around it. Fair enough, he certainly didn't help. I don't like the guy myself, nor his ideas, and much less the fires and deforestation that is happening in the Amazon forest. But... very big but here, deforestation in the Amazon is a problem as old as the country itself. Blaming a single president, no matter how much of an asshole he is, does not address the problem properly, and it is extremely unfair no matter how you swing it. It's a historically very poor region where lots of people are still living like they were in colonization times. Yes, there are big industries around farming and cattle in the region, very rich land owners exploiting protected areas illegally, a whole ton of poaching and exploitation. But this happens because of ignorance and poverty. If you think about it, even huge land owners would not be destroying their own land if they knew this was gonna ultimately lead to a land so depleted of resources it could become worthless in a generation's time. Now, despite the poverty of the region, it's also true that there are universities and organizations in the area with fairly advanced research in preservation and recovering parts of rainforest back. What governments of developed countries should do instead of outright cutting help funds and money for preservation efforts, is to find the right organizations to contribute to. Skip brazilian government entirely. Which is always a good idea because it's not from today that the brazilian government is absolutely corrupt too. It has been this way basically all the way back when it first became an independent nation, going through a corrupt military dictatorship, and then becoming a corrupt democracy. Quite honestly, as a brazilian, I have no hopes brazilian government will ever become an institution free of corruption. Opposite to the current polarized political scenario here and what most brazilians will shout about, I don't think either sides of the political spectrum will ever solve the problem with corruption here, simply because it's so deeply rooted and deeply ingrained in politics that it just cannot get any better. Corruption is institutionalized here. It's structural. Major parts of politics and institutions were build, are run and were formed around corrupt concepts from start. So it ends up in this situation. It doesn't really matter what government we end up with, whether you believe in it or not, if they promised to end corruption or not, what party they are coming from, etc etc. There is no perfect drop of perfume that can solve the stench of a pool filled with sewage. So, back again, the better way to preserve the Amazon rainforest and other parts of the country is injecting money directly in the places needed, helping local people who can make a difference by themselves. This is of course way more involved and way harder than just donating money directly to the government, but the government simply cannot be trusted, period. Sorry if I went off the rails on a rant too much here, but it needs to be said. The entire shitstorm in international press flinging shit against Bolsonaro and the current administration accomplished nothing. A breakdown in international relations perhaps. Less investment in the country, sure. Past corrupt and condemned administration feeling empowered enough to manipulate our justice system to get out of jail and try to be re-elected to power once again, most certainly. But in the end, it solves nothing. It just locks the country in the situation it already is. There is no order and no progress, just the same ol' banana republic state the country got too comfortable with, becoming complacent with it's own condition and going nowhere.

The government has huge responsibility for the rainforests in Brazil, which are literally the lungs of the Earth, but they don't give actual f*ck about it and the climate, they care only for money. I come from also a country in the Balkans called Bosnia, majority of it's land is covered with forests and there is even a huge rainforest quite unusual for a region so high above ( not equator ). And the government is also VERY corrupt. Just like in your country, but worser. They just grab money and harm the nature. It leads to a much worser situation, globally! People get poor and the only thing they ( we ) care is that our family freaking survives, the consequences are just forgotten. No wonder Friday for Future has started and I think more and more people should go out on the streets, because it is our only home, Earth.

    You can also do this in your yard. Plant edible perennial plants and place them in a way that mimics the forests. I started this in my yard and it works great. It all starts with the wood chips. They break down and feed the soil on a long-term basis. Woodchips also hold moisture. I have 15 fruit trees, blackberries, strawberries, and many more edible plants. It's called permaculture or permanent agriculture. If we had prisoners build food forests, we could possibly end hunger AND rebuild desert landscapes. It's easier to reforest when you don't have to water. It really starts with the woodchips. Mother nature likes to cover herself.

Dogs can certainly help when the others are absent. Also rotting trees do not turn into CO2 when they rot. They turn into mushrooms, worms, soil, other trees, roots stay in the ground...

    Good information. Please consider making a video on the ecological ramifications of property-line fences (the farming/ranching dominated areas of the western US offer the most dramatic examples of this that I am aware of, but it is also present in some other important ecosystems around the world and happens everywhere in the world someone has decided to place a fence). Discussing the changes that happened when the natural behavior of range species were first obstructed will be informative to all of us and will probably give some interesting ideas about potential management solutions for correcting issues from ecological cascade.

    A lot of the grass shown is Japanese stiltgrass which is invasive in the USA. It's hard to get rid of because it holds enough moisture to not burn and produces enough seeds to readily regrow. You basically have to keep coming back each year and ripping it out, including the roots, until the seeds stored in the soil are used up.

The wind will disperse seeds in outlying areas. Fruit trees will invite pollinators, bats and other smaller animals to help fill up the area with their droppings. There is a 3/4 H for rice production. Happy forest building everyone!!!

    I live in the Arizona desert (Cave Creek) and planted 35 medium to large native trees after I built my house. I protected from the construction activities all native plants and relocated those I could as necessary. That was 8 years ago and I have an abundant amount of native birds including owls and ground dwelling animals of all desert species. Honoring the spirit of the native lands is never taught in schools. It’s no surprise that we are raising a national of non caring and non respectful young people. Caring is part of the quality of life yet eliminated by societal walks of life. Start caring today or be forced to live a life soiled by others.

    The issue in fire ridden states isn't lack of forest, it's lack of forest afterwards. Which makes real estate drop, even though development becomes easier for whomever buys it up normally. Example, a fully flush lot is worth less than an empty lot because removing all the foliage is costly. We love our bears here in California, even if we don't want them in our backyard that was once their territory. So having most of their home burned away year after year, I've been leaving out fruit for the bears on the out skirts of our property. Which they're definitely eating, seen paw prints and bear scat. Almost all the manzanitas on our property went up thanks to Campfire '18. I've been slowly cleaning up all the burned debris and transplanting tree saplings from undesirable areas to more desirable areas in hopes our manzanita forest and other trees come back.

To top it all, Brazil still needs to find a way to produce more energy while not worsening our biomes and preserving the native people's reserves. And there is also the matter of political corruption we have been fighting and the fight against communism. We don't want to become what our neighboring countries are becoming.

    This is true for gardens also! Here in Sweden we talk about biodiversity, but then people remove all the native trees from their gardens and go for more "exotic" plants, like lilacs and apple trees. 20 years ago, squirrels were common in rural areas. Now all the spruces have been cut down, because people think they are not pretty enough, or don't like the needles. And most of the squirrels are gone. We keep large, closely cropped lawns, devoid of life. Hares and foxes are rarely seen.

    Don't just plant trees but one should plant bamboo species specific to that region as many as one can. Because bamboo is grass no matter how many time you cut it will always come back and it is very resistant to nature's torture ,doesn't need caring, and most important of all it gives the highest amount of oxygen among all the species of plants. It also help to rise the underground water level by storing water into the soil.
