On a desertifying planet trapped in climate extinction, the jungle is only shrinking.

On a desertifying planet trapped in climate extinction, the jungle is only shrinking.
We're inside the first animal created mass desertification project. Reforestation is nonsense.

We lose 10 million sq miles of forests a year and have lost 1/3 of forest areas since 1000Ad, so "reforesting" isn't a viable reversal project.
And reforestation is poorly understood as "reforesting" is pursued on land already lost to forest capability.

"Reforestation is a prominent climate change mitigation strategy, but available global maps of reforestation potential are widely criticized and highly variable, which limits their ability to provide robust estimates of both the locations and total area of opportunity"
Wikipedia says "Globally, planted forests increased from 4.1% to 7.0% of the total forest area between 1990 and 2015." And the Green Wall in China is arguably doing cool things.
Reforestation might not solve our issues, but I don't see "nonsense."
Look up reforestation work. It is a light in dark times.
