Each citizen of the world needs to plant 240 trees. That would be the best way to heal the planet as we recently proposed. Quite a challenge. But technology can help. These pioneers have developed a drone that can identify the best places to plant trees. And the drone can plant up to 100,000 trees a day. A 10-year project with 5,000 drones gives the planet most of her forest cover back. Do-able? Why not? But please keep planting your own trees in the mean time.
