Trees take years to grow,sometimes centuries!Shubhendu Sharma has found a way to grow native forests anywhere in the world.The six-part process was improved after Sharma learned the ins and outs of producing healthy trees from Akira Miyawaki,an award-winning botanist(植物学家) who has planted over 40 million trees around the world.
The two met while Sharma was working at Toyota,when Miyawaki was appointed to plant a forest for a car company.After volunteering with Miyawaki,Sharma quit his job to take on a new career path—planting trees.The fruits of his labor culminated in(终获某种结局)the for-profit company Afforestt,which plants native forests around the world for customers ranging from farmers and corporations to city governments.
Trees are one of Mother Nature’s greatest gifts as they clean the air,save water,attract various animals and species,conserve energy and much more.Sharma applied his industrial engineer background to trees by creating a computer program that registers tree species’ parameters(特性) in order to find the best combination of trees that will form a forest.Afforestt is promoting their standardized method for seeding thick,fast-growing native forests in poor lands,with such remarkable results like a multilayered forest of 300 trees that is grown on a small space.
