Flash Forest

"While reforestation is lagging behind in [Québec], seeding by drone would make it possible to plant more trees in a short time, without having to wait for seedlings that take two or three years to grow in a nursery. Flash Forest ... estimates that it can plant 50,000 trees per day. In comparison, a planter has an average [productivity] of 1,500 to 2,000 seedlings per day, Cameron Jones points out." Our first project in Québec was what we hope to be the first of many. For an in-depth look into the landscape, challenges the province is facing in traditional tree planting efforts, and the advantages drone reforestation can provide, check out this article from CBC who were live on site during the plant: https://lnkd.in/gQzPh6pe --------------------- "Alors que le reboisement prend du retard dans [Québec], l'ensemencement par drone permettrait surtout de planter plus d'arbres en peu de temps, sans avoir à attendre les semis qui poussent deux ou trois ans en pépinière. Flash Forest ... estime pouvoir planter quotidiennement 50 000 arbres. En comparaison, un planteur a une [productivité] moyenne de 1500 à 2000 semis par jour, souligne Cameron Jones." Notre premier projet au Québec était ce que nous espérons être le premier d’une longue série.

"Canada … is warming at about twice the global rate of warming, and it's clear that that is caused primarily by increasing concentrations of greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere, particularly carbon dioxide." The unprecedented heatwave that swept across much of the maritimes, Québec, and Ontario in June is making the impact of climate change clear for Canadians. Our commitment to planting trees is more vital than ever. By restoring our forests, we’re not only capturing carbon but also cooling our planet and protecting communities. 🌡  Read more about the link between climate change and the heatwave here: https://lnkd.in/gH2rJEzX #ClimateAction #TreePlanting #carbon

In addition to planting more than 1M trees this spring, we're thrilled to have been able to welcome industry experts, government representatives, and members of the press at three demo days across the country. These live action demonstrations showcased our internal processes from initiation to execution. They highlighted our pods, planting tech, ongoing experiments in our greenhouse, our site selection process, and some of the challenges we face out in the field! A huge thank-you to all attendees, and a special thank-you to our QC project partner Forair for their help in making it happen!

Two impactful projects, two short months, over 13,000 kms travelled, more than one million trees planted, and one incredible team to accomplish it all. That's a wrap on our spring 2024 Canadian planting operations! 🇨🇦 As per usual, we're already back in the office planning our 2025 + 2026 projects. Looking to get involved or have land you're looking to reforest? Let's get in touch! #FlashForest #TreePlanting #Reforestation #Sustainability #NatureTech #ClimateTech #ClimateChange

Spring Ops Project 2: 📍 Assinica, QC Our second and final Canadian project this spring is taking place in Assinica, Québec, working with the Oujé-Bougoumou Cree Nation to restore wildfire-damaged ecosystems. This project marks our expansion into the beautiful province of Québec! After a cross-Canada journey, our team has just touched down on site and is planting thousands of trees as we speak. Stay tuned! #FlashForest #TreePlanting #Reforestation #ClimateTech #Drones #NatureTech #ForestFire #Wildfire
