In all the research Iāve been doing for this ongoing series on reforestation and agroforestry Iāve struggled to find any reports or serious articles that outline the potential steps to transition the worldās agricultural model on a large scale from one thatās based on annual crops and the intensive cultivation […]
Continuing with this series on reforestation and agroforestry, I got the chance to speak with Pieter Van Midwoud, the lead tree planting officer of the search engine company Ecosia. Iāve been using Ecosia as my default search engine for a couple years now because of their claim to plant trees […]
