Hi all,
did you know that also Thailand faces deforestation?
Thailand focus to reforest the Mekong area by 2020.
In the last 20
years human activities such as cropping and logging have halved the forest area
between China, Birmania, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand and Vietnam, therefore in
2013 the country has
decided to apply the so called ‘Fukuoka technique’ which consist in seeding, laying
materials on the soil and pick up the fruits. This way of seeding can cover a
wider area and reforest the affected areas more efficiently.
First example of this bombing was in
1930 in the Hawaii area where the local authorities were aiming to reforest the
mountains around Honolulu burned down by a fire. The experiment was successful and
since then this technique has been used in different area of the world.
I believe seed bombing could be used
in the Amazon as well, and help to reforest our green lung.
