I recently learned that there's a group dedicated to planting 1000 trees in the city of Trenton, NJ, USA. I'm really glad to see a city working to bring back a little nature!

In Vienna, Austria, Europe, every tree removed has to be replaced with a new as per regulation

In Toronto Canada if you plant trees you get arrested

The problem even with that is that an old, standing tree and a young one are very different in their ability to provide the services we seek from them.
