with 1.5 million volunteers
(44 trees per participant)
" Ethiopia 363 million planted in 12 hours
with 23 million volunteers
(16 trees per participant)

6. 1
The ๏ฌoor doth not got enough
nutritive components for all the trees
that you plant on the same place.
You must to scatter trees.

Solution
7. 2Conifers are more effective than
hardwoods in absorbing CO2. but
conifers reduce the albedo (re๏ฌection
of the rays of the sun), so if one only
plants conifers that will not lower
the climatic warming.
You must mix the types of trees.

Solution
8. 3
Tree monoculture leads to
epidemics. A whole forest can die at
once.
nยฐ
You must mix the types of trees.
Solution
9. 4
In some places, plantations have
made the situation worse by
pumping scarce water resources
and eliminating soil-๏ฌxing grasses.
nยฐ
You must check the type of ๏ฌoor and
put right type of tree
Solution
10. AI can solve this problems
by having a plantation logic
adapted to natural
biodiversity.
(itโs necessary to merge 6 types of
data)
Solution
11. Here is a map made by
Crowther Lab
The green areas show
the land available for
planting trees, excluding
existing forests, deserts,
cities and crops, or 0.9
billion hectares.
Where can we
plant

12. What is the nature of the
land on this part of the
world?
Fertility, water, sand %,
clay %..
Which is the best place to
plant such type of trees ?
Land

13. Different types of trees and
vegetables that can grow
well together to keep the
biodiversity, the locations
they must be planted. It isโจ
important to know how
much C02 they can absorb,
as well as everything else
about the speci๏ฌcations of
the trees.

14. Under the same
conditions we planted
trees in a region, what
happened? Are the trees
dead? Why? How much
C02 does it capture in the
๏ฌnal? how did the land
evolve after planting?
What happened
before?

15. What types of tree/
building are around us?
Geographical

16. Itโs necessary to meet
local botanists and
politicians. To understand
the issues and
constraints in the
geographical area..

17. Where you can plant trees
What types of tree
And how to, with a tutorial.
The app motivates people
to plant using gami๏ฌcation
You earn points when you
plant a tree
With a potential to create a
huge movement of people
to help reforestation.
By crossing these
data you get an App
that tells you :
Try the prototype โ
18. To open a region, start to
collect Datas and meet
botanists and political actors.
Then we create an event
during a day where the entire
population is invited to use
the application to plant a tree,
for promotional purposes.
We want to opening
region by region
Deployment strategy
19. With the help of organization and
open data.
As well with help of the local
actors of the cities that we are
going to open.
How are you going to
collect data ?
