A Forest Returns
A short film about the forests in Ohio, USA. It shows how the forests bring prosperity when left alive. The return of forests brings hope and wealth to local communities. Lester Brown claims we should be reforesting 150 million hectares in order to reforest the Earth - plenty of work to do! It would increase the soil fertility, create wealth, halt desertification, mitigate against climate change, stabilise soil erosion and provide habitats for wildlife. Lets hope we see more of this in the decade ahead.
