"We need a trillion trees!" - An interview with ETH researcher Dr Colin Averill

"We need a trillion trees!" - An interview with ETH researcher Dr Colin Averill

Global reforestation is the most effective measure against climate change. The world needs one trillion new trees to absorb two thirds of the CO2 emissions caused by humans. This is the conclusion of an ETH study. We talked to Dr Colin Averill, who was involved in the study.

NIKIN plants one Tree for every product sold - and there is an important reason for this: trees are not only home to many animals, but they also absorb CO2. A study by the ETH has now shown how important trees are for the environment. That's why we talked to someone who really needs to know. Dr. Colin Averill worked on the study and answered our most burning questions. 

  

 

How many trees does it take to stop climate change?

In the first part, we directly asked him the most important question: How many trees do we need? His answer: a trillion. You can see how many trees there are on earth at the moment in the video. You can find more information about the Crowther Labs study here.
