Definition: Reforestation is a process of restoring degraded or deforested areas by planting new trees, shrubs, and other vegetation. This can help to restore soil health, improve air quality, and provide habitat for wildlife. Reforestation aims to create more sustainable ecosystems that are resilient to climate change, and it often involves the removal of invasive species before planting native plants. It is a fundamental step in mitigating environmental damage caused by deforestation and has been shown to have positive impacts on local biodiversity
