And an excerpt from the article... "Scientists have established there is room for an additional 1.2 trillion trees to grow in parks, woods and abandoned land across the planet. If such a goal were accomplished, ecologist Dr Thomas Crowther said it would outstrip every other method for tackling climate change."
Here is a list of trees native to the Palmdale/Alpine Butte area, planting native trees is important so it does not cause an upset to the ecosystem...
