The video discusses how increased vegetation growth, known as greening, has helped slow global warming. Greening involves activities like farming, large-scale tree planting, and reforestation.

Researchers estimate that global greening has reduced the rate of global warming by approximately 0.2 to 0.23 degrees Celsius.
