So, what are &#8220;reforesting&#8221; and &#8220;afforesting&#8221; processes and how are they different? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Reforestation<\/em> is the process of re-planting trees in existing forests where the tree population is declining or the forest has experienced tree loss from natural disturbances including windstorms, tornadoes, pests, fire, or flooding. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Afforestation<\/em> is the process of planting trees in areas where no trees have previously existed or have been absent for long periods of time. Forest restoration is a critical component to help fight climate change, particularly because trees can sequester and capture carbon, which helps to create cleaner air and cleaner soil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/answerconnect-blog\/1\/2021\/10\/AnswerConnect-X-Tree-Canada-body-images-1024x538.jpg\" alt=\"Group of people planting trees for reforestation project \" class=\"wp-image-10485\" srcset=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/answerconnect-blog\/1\/2021\/10\/AnswerConnect-X-Tree-Canada-body-images-1024x538.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/answerconnect-blog\/1\/2021\/10\/AnswerConnect-X-Tree-Canada-body-images-300x158.jpg 300w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/answerconnect-blog\/1\/2021\/10\/AnswerConnect-X-Tree-Canada-body-images-768x403.jpg 768w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/answerconnect-blog\/1\/2021\/10\/AnswerConnect-X-Tree-Canada-body-images-150x79.jpg 150w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/answerconnect-blog\/1\/2021\/10\/AnswerConnect-X-Tree-Canada-body-images.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Large Scale Solutions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Every day, fossil fuel emissions release carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases that trap heat in our atmosphere. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalgeographic.com\/environment\/article\/fossil-fuels\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">According to National Geographic<\/a>, these gases have become the primary contributors to global warming and climate change.
