Restoring Brazil's Atlantic Forest: One Billion New Trees

See primates, birds and butterflies in the remaining stands of Brazil's endangered tropical Atlantic Forest. The Atlantic Forest harbors a range of biodiversity that rivals the Amazon, but after centuries of depletion, just 12 of the forest survives. See how The Nature Conservancy is leading a wide range of partners in an effort to restore one billion native trees to this highly endangered forest.

Excellent idea to plant millions of trees, reforestation is the way.

To help prevent deforestation we need to stop replacing rainforests with soya, beef, fruit and other crops.

Who in their right mind would hold an ounce of gold or 20 barrels of oil higher in value than 10 acres of pristine rainforest or even one acre?
