The team found there are far more trees in semi-arid regions of Africa than previously thought. But those trees store less carbon than some models predicted.
They estimate roughly 0.84 petagrams of carbon are locked up in African drylands.
(1 Pg = 1 billion metric tons)
#NASAEarth
The data are publicly available with a viewer app developed by the team. #OpenScience
The app identifies individual trees in satellite imagery and shows the amount of carbon they contain.

There's a real big, fundamental problem with the entire concept of using "smart contracts" on a blockchain as a way to organize co-ops that I haven't seen anyone talk about. You can't use a #DAO to create a co-op because co-op members need to be able to actually read and understand the coordinating documents of the org. Would you take someone seriously who wanted you to join a co-op who's bylaws were written in a foreign language? Well, that's precisely what a #DAO is.
