Example Sentences
Recent Examples on the Web Another is the albedo effect of afforestation, which is little known outside of the scientific community but has huge implications for the climate. 
Erik Millar, Forbes, 25 July 2022 The afforestation project has its roots in a Tweet that a friend forwarded to Patil about the benefits of Miyawaki forests to fight climate change. Sabrina Toppa, Time, 8 June 2022 The hope is that applying a monetary value to natural resources in this way will incentivize forest restoration, afforestation, and sustainable forestry practices. Laurie Winkless, Forbes, 22 Apr. 2022 Any nonrenewable energy use will be offset with afforestation. Washington Post, 20 Jan. 2022 If the goal is to minimize global warming, climate scientists often stress the importance of afforestation, or planting new forests, and reforestation, or regrowing forests. Jonny Diamond, Smithsonian Magazine, 5 Jan. 2022 Getting the mix right will be key, according to experts who stress that reforestation and afforestation efforts should not supplant work to protect existing forests. Isabella Kaminski, Wired, 25 Dec. 2019 This means any release of greenhouse gases thereafter will be balanced by the capture of such gases already in the atmosphere by, say, extra afforestation. The Economist, 18 Dec. 2019 Although well-intentioned in their approach, the country’s tree planting efforts seem to overlook previous afforestation issues by encouraging mass plantings to meet a national quota.
