Pakistan Plants 1 Billion Trees in Massive Reforestation Project
The hills of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa are green once more, thanks to a massive reforestation effort by the Pakistan government called the Billion Tree Tsunami.
The South Asian country hit its billion-tree goal in August 2017, well ahead of schedule, and is now seeing the fruit of that labor in more than 350,000 hectares of saplings produced both by planting and natural regeneration, World Economic Forum reports.
