Ex-NASA engineer to plant one billion trees using drones

The video discusses the alarming rate of deforestation, with 58,000 square miles of forest lost annually. Bio Carbon Engineering, an Oxford-based start-up, aims to combat this by planting 1 billion trees a year using drones. The process involves mapping deforested areas, deploying automated planting drones to plant germinated seeds, and using nutrient-rich seed pods to ensure successful growth. With two operators, 36,000 trees can be planted daily.
