A Liberal campaign pledge to plant two billion trees by 2030 finally seems to have taken root.  Natural Resources Minister Seamus O’Regan announced Friday that 30 million trees will be planted this season out of the two billion his government promised over the next 10 years during the 2019 federal election campaign.  That goal will see Canada plant an extra 200 million trees each year, which the government says will eventually help sequester carbon.  To get two billion trees into the ground over a decade, around 33 million would have to be planted each month during a tree-planting season, and over nine years that grows to about 37 million trees.  But the actual rollout of the program won’t be as straightforward.   A graph provided by his office shows the number of trees that are expected to have been planted by 2026 will grow to 500 million, and then exceed one billion in 2028.
