Reforestation

Reforestation is the process of planting trees in areas where forests have been removed or degraded. This can help to reduce carbon emissions by increasing the amount of carbon sequestered in vegetation and soil, and by providing an alternative to fossil fuels for energy production. In the context of carbon accounting, reforestation can be used as a carbon offsetting strategy, with the amount of carbon sequestered by the trees being counted towards an organization's emissions reduction targets.
