This Drone Plants 100,000 Trees a Day

 

 

 15 Billion trees are destroyed yearly, this is an alarming rate.  Trees are essential to humans and we often take advantage of what they provide to us everyday.  BioCarbon Engineering has decided to think outside the box and combat this shocking rate of destruction.  They have developed a drone that can plant up to 100,000 trees a day!  The drone is loaded with biodegradable seed pods that are shot down into the soil.  The drone knows exactly where to plant the seed pods because BioCarbon Engineering uses satellite imagery to map areas.  The process, although no doubt is complex, seems easy and makes me think why hasn't someone thought of this sooner? Regardless, BioCarbon Engineering is taking the right steps to make our planet a better place to live on.  Check out the footage below to see how the drone works.
