Tree planting: not a simple solution

Abstract

There's no doubt about it. Planting trees has caught the attention of the American public. In his 1990 State of the Union address, President Bush proposed planting a billion Fees annually for the next ten years. Inspired by the potential for trees to reduce greenhouse gases and mitigate global climate change, tree-planting programs such as Treepeople and Global ReLeaf are organizing campaigns at the local and national levels for a massive re-greening of America.
