Reforestation: Knowing when to let nature take its course
Description: Intervening and restoring deforested and degraded forest areas can be accomplished through many different activities. Some interventions are more active and costly, whereas other interventions are more passive. A new study concludes letting nature take its course may be the most effective and least expensive means of restoring the biodiversity and vegetation structure of tropical forests. <br><br> There is currently a global effort to pledge 350 million hectares of degraded forest for restoration by 2030. <br><br> [Source: University of Connecticut]
