A bill is currently being drafted by Rep. Bruce Westerman (R-Arkansas) that would set in stone the commitment to the planting of billions of trees annually. If the legislation passes, the U.S. will plant 3.3 billion trees each year over the next 30 years.
Westerman explained:
The pragmatic, proactive thing to do is to plant forests and manage them so that you're actually pulling carbon out of the atmosphere.Trump said at Davos:
We're committed to conserving the majesty of God's creation and the natural beauty of our world.
