Miyawaki Forest in Chandigarh-grow Billion Trees
Chandigarh, known for its urban planning and green spaces, is embracing a revolutionary approach to reforestation: the Miyawaki Forest. This method, named after Japanese botanist Akira Miyawaki, is transforming urban landscapes into lush, biodiverse forests. The Miyawaki method involves planting native species close together, mimicking natural forests. This dense planting encourages rapid growth, with trees growing up to ten times faster than conventional methods. In just a few years, these forests become self-sustaining ecosystems.
