Planting Trees Isnโ€™t Enough - Hereโ€™s Why We were not wrong to care about planting trees. We were wrong to think they could carry the weight of the climate crisis. Tree planting has become the guilt-soothing symbol of climate hope. Tap an app, plant a forest. Buy a product, get a sapling. But hereโ€™s the honest bit: done badly, it can cause harm. ๐ŸŒ Fossil fuels take millions of years to form. ๐Ÿ”ฅ We burn them in decades. ๐ŸŒฑ Trees canโ€™t keep up - and monoculture plantations often destroy biodiversity, drain rivers, and displace communities. Grasslands, wetlands, and savannas are not empty lands waiting for trees. They are rich ecosystems - full of birds, insects, mammals, and deep root networks. Turning them into plantations breaks more than it fixes. So whatโ€™s the real work? โœ… PROTECT OLD FORESTS - they store more carbon and life than new ones. โœ… Let nature regrow - natural REGENERATION restores up to 56% more biodiversity than plantations. โœ… CUT FOSSIL FUELS at the source - trees are not a permission slip for dirty energy. โœ… Support climate projects that tell the TRUTH - not just plant glossy promises. This is not about guilt. Itโ€™s about clarity. And clarity begins with knowing what not to fix. I wrote this piece to challenge the myth and invite smarter action. ๐Ÿ“š Read it here: https://medium.com/@saket-sambhav/we-thought-planting-trees-would-save-the-planet-but-it-is-not-enough-0b6b68b2764b ๐Ÿ’ฌ Would love to hear how youโ€™re rethinking climate action - beyond saplings and slogans.
