So, what are \u201creforesting\u201d and \u201cafforesting\u201d processes and how are they different?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Reforestation<\/em>&nbsp;is the process of re-planting trees in existing forests where the tree population is declining or the forest has experienced tree loss from natural disturbances including windstorms, tornadoes, pests, fire, or flooding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Afforestation<\/em>&nbsp;is the process of planting trees in areas where no trees have previously existed or have been absent for long periods of time. Forest restoration is a critical component to help fight climate change, particularly because trees can sequester and capture carbon, which helps to create cleaner air and cleaner soil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/answerconnectbloguk\/1\/2021\/12\/AnswerConnect-X-Tree-Canada-body-images-1024x538.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9736\" srcset=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/answerconnectbloguk\/1\/2021\/12\/AnswerConnect-X-Tree-Canada-body-images-1024x538.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/answerconnectbloguk\/1\/2021\/12\/AnswerConnect-X-Tree-Canada-body-images-300x158.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/answerconnectbloguk\/1\/2021\/12\/AnswerConnect-X-Tree-Canada-body-images-768x403.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/answerconnectbloguk\/1\/2021\/12\/AnswerConnect-X-Tree-Canada-body-images.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Large-scale solutions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Every day, fossil fuel emissions release carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases that trap heat in our atmosphere.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalgeographic.com\/environment\/article\/fossil-fuels\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">According to National Geographic<\/a>, these gases have become the primary contributors to global warming and climate change. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since 1992, Tree Canada has planted more than 83 million trees.
