Not all tree-planting strategies are created equal.
Reforestation. Afforestation. Restoration.
They sound similar — but they deliver very different climate and ecological outcomes.
In this video, climate finance expert Romain Pison breaks down the difference:
– Reforestation restores native forests where they once stood
– Afforestation adds trees to previously unforested areas — but can disrupt ecosystems if done poorly
– Restoration goes deeper, aiming to revive entire ecosystems: soil, water, biodiversity, and communities
If you’re investing in land-based climate solutions, knowing the difference isn’t just smart — it’s strategic.
Let’s invest with impact, not just optics.
