• Resumen

  • Heffernan talks about president Donald Trump's global tree-planting project. The brainchild of Dan Price, Jeff Willis, and Adrien Taylor--a scientist, a PhD candidate and a sustainable hat maker--"Trump Forest" aims to soak up the 650 million tonnes of extra carbon emissions that would be released over the next eight years as a result of axing the Clean Power Plan. That's a tall order--it would require more than 10 billion trees. But they have made a start: the project launched in New Zealand with the donation of 1000 native trees, and it now has supporters worldwide.
