Question

If we plant 1.2 crores of saplings(afforestation) in a year, shall we get carbon credit for that?

Answer 1

Definitely.  Every seed sown in that way will fetch you things.

Answer 2

Yes it certainly gives us credit. Planting sapling is the most important thing we need to do religiously if we want to save our environment and control global warming and climatic changes.

Another important step we need to take is stop hurting our forest, yes just leave them and you will see the best regeneration and without putting in any money. Nature has its own way of claiming back the degraded land and trees grow back soon.

So, planting trees is important but leaving our forests to regenerate is beter, economical and will give fast result.

Answer 3

No, still less. If you have 1.2 crore saplings for afforestation, then 6 crore trees in earth will be destroyed if current rate goes on. Carbon would be less & we have to increase trees by more 10 crores.
