I’m always leary of claims like this as often planting numbers overshadow future community composition.
As I understand it, they have to over plant as many of the trees won’t survive to maturity.
If they plant a billion and only a hundred million are still there in fifty years it’s still a big win for the environment.
Yes, this is part of it, too. Usually a safe bet is a 20% contingency for planting, but you need to watch your mortality rates, obviously, as big weather events can throw that all out the window.
How does that affect domestic food production/supply?
The current food production is approximately at 130% of the consumption, so Denmark will still have a net export.
Of course we also have imports, so the effect will be even smaller in that regard, but it’s nice to know that it’s fully covered in a worse case scenario.

It’s farm products. I don’t think it’s any better or worse than American farms.
Most meals are cooked at home and people do expect fresh produce. The milk in stores was tapped the same morning, vegetables are crispy green and minced meat is red. A negative side is that we do have an incredible waste of food here, because people set high standards. Nobody buys anything on the “best before”-date.
I think the quality of food in USA is very dependent on location, distribution and preparation. Surely there is fresh food in US too, but it won’t be in the drive-thru.
Yeah unlike the American Cheese Whizz fields! /s
We used to watch the cheeto balls tumble across the plains in summer
America’s closest crop that it has 130% of in vast fields?
Bungalows.
America grows bungalows. And while the vast expanse of bungalow fields are expensive to raise and feed, those bungalows are valuable first-food to the fire-tornadoes and seasonal floods.
Digital food
If you stop doing animal agriculture, food supplies go up about 90%
So this is a very easy problem to solve.
no, they don’t.
Of course they do
please prove your claim
Negatively for sure, although if they choose the worst farmland it might be by a significantly less than 10%. People can decide if the tradeoff is worth it for themselves, I guess.
They can paint on the old mink farms
Yay
Any Danes in this thread looking to marry? Asking for a friend that’s educated, housebroken, and loves nature and Danish metal.
Is this like colonialism? They dont even have that much land
That’s not how percentages work
I was to “1 billion trees”
The current forests in Denmark are 15% of the land and also about one billion trees in total. Adding another billion trees on 10% is probably possible.
The kingdom is 2.210.403km2, it’s huge, 12th largest state in the world, larger than Saudi Arabia or Mexico. Most of it is Greenland though and it’s going to be difficult planting forests on glaciers so I think they mean metropolitan Denmark.
