Are we talking 10 to the 9th power or the 12th?

I also did some reading up on this. I live in British Columbia and reforestation is a big deal. Apparently a tree planter can plant 2,000 seedlings a day. More if the terrain is good and they’re experienced. So yeah, I can see it now.

Though I still wonder about the survival rate of the plantings, but How question is indeed answered.

That’s still over a billion trees a year. Actually that’s over 1,500,000,000 trees a year. Again…HOW?

And this begs a side question. Out of those 78 Billion trees, how many are alive now?

Wait… 78 Billion trees. As in with a ‘b’ billion? In all seriousness, how?
