Linked with initiatives to change cooking and heating methods reforestation would provide absorption of CO2 and a long term reliable supply of biomass to produce Green Charcoal and other alternatives. This initiatives can be driven by one individual or by major corporations. One example is Mozambique where one individual is on track to plant 1,000,000 trees. Carbon credits are an excellent method to encourage large corporations to support this initiative. The effort not only provides vital green belts to absorb CO2 but provides valuable jobs to the natives to plant the trees and maintain the forests.
