Trinidad and Tobago could eventually generate more than $8 billion annually from the benefits of reforestation under a new national programme that combines forest restoration with digital mapping technology.
The announcement came from Minister of Agriculture and Fisheries Ravi Ratiram during Tuesday’s launch of the ReLeaf TT pilot project, a national reforestation programme aimed at restoring degraded forest lands.
He described the programme as a significant step towards rehabilitating the nation’s forest resources.
