As trees are planted and action is taken to improve the climate, care is needed to ensure biodiversity is maintained. Planting a forest of all the same trees, leaves the forest vulnerable to pests and infection that could wipe the forest out in one season. Ensuring a forest has a range of trees that are native to the region, helps mitigate the risks of pests and infection.
