According to the IPCC, in order to achieve the climate targets set by Europe and the world for 2030, 35% of carbon absorption potential should come from forests. 900 million hectares are ready to be reforested, but we're not in a position to achieve this... yet. The United Nations hopes to reforest 80 million hectares a year. Today, we're only at 8 million hectares a year. We need to speed up the reforestation process.
