Forests and Biodiversity Program Co-coordinator at Friends of the Earth International, Nele Mariën, was interviewed by Real World Radio on the day before the celebration of the International Day of Struggle against Monoculture Tree Plantations. The activist analyzed the main consequences of large-scale tree plantations, the risks of their growth facilitated by the implications of the Paris Climate Agreement and the “negative emission” proposals, and even the potential impact of the aviation sector with its emission offsetting initiative through the REDD mechanism.
