About: Forestation

An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Forestation is either growing existing forests (proforestation) or establishing forest growth on areas that either had forest or lacked it naturally. In the first case, the process is called reforestation, or reafforestation while the second is called afforestation. Massive aforestation has been proposed as a method to mitigate climate change, though its effectiveness is limited by the albedo effect.
