Rejected petition Plant UK's share of 1 trillion trees needed globally to fight climate change.

Tom Crowther's research at ETH Zurich shows that planting one trillion trees globally could remove enough carbon from the atmosphere to stop runaway climate change. It is by far the cheapest and easiest way to tackle the problem, and we owe it to future generations to play our part.
