Carbon Sequestration: Trees absorb CO2, mitigating climate change. A mature tree can sequester about 48 pounds of CO2 annually.
Biodiversity: Reforestation restores habitats, supporting wildlife and plant species. Forests host 80% of terrestrial biodiversity.
Soil Health: Tree roots prevent erosion, improve soil structure, and enhance nutrient cycling, reducing degradation.
Water Cycle Regulation: Forests maintain watersheds, improve water retention, and reduce flooding risks by stabilizing rainfall patterns.
Air Quality: Trees filter pollutants, releasing oxygen. Urban trees can reduce particulate matter by up to 24%.
Economic Benefits: Reforestation creates jobs (e.g., in forestry or ecotourism) and supports sustainable timber or non-timber products.
Climate Resilience: Forests act as natural barriers against extreme weather, like storms or heat waves, and regulate local temperatures.
Human Well-being: Green spaces improve mental health, reduce stress, and enhance community cohesion.
Effective reforestation requires native species, proper maintenance, and addressing local ecological needs to maximize these benefits.
