Britain will triple tree planting to tackle climate change
The UK plans to triple its tree planting rates over the next three years to meet its target of net zero carbon emissions by 2050 as part of the fight against climate change.
UK Environment Secretary George Eustice will announce that the woodland creation figures will triple by May 2024, when around 7,000 hectares of woodland will be planted each year.
The statement does not give any other details of the plan, nor does it say how much the planting scheme will cost or how it is funded.
