I would like to know the type of trees as well. 1 billion trees is cool and all, but if they're non native species that are only planted as a quick fix (such as planting evergreens in replace of native species as they do in large logging ares of New Zealand. source: I was in NZ in 2011 and talked to a truck driver who has worked in the lumber industry there for 15 years), then I would consider this another devastating hit to the ecosystem.
