Introducing Rocket Tree:

The Future of Aerial Reforestation

The Problem:

The Solution:

In the early stages of aerial reforestation, it was difficult to drop seedlings from high altitudes without damaging their fragile root tips of a plant. But, Jesu Sebastian’s designs that encase seedlings in sturdy but biodegradable Rocket Tree. The Rocket Tree is strong enough to protect the seedlings when they hit the ground yet still disintegrate to let the trees' roots emerge.

They're also packed with everything the plant needs for survival: Depending on the particular design, they may have soil, nutrients, fertilizer and even a material that pulls in surrounding moisture needed for the growing tree.

  • Making rocket tree an excellent candidate for helping to reduce CO2 already in our atmosphere. Planting trees is one of the cheapest and most effective ways to remove CO2 from the atmosphere.

  • Enable up to 1,000,000 trees to be planted in one day using a single plane,

  • Tree bombing presents a cost effective solution for Governments - and companies with large carbon - footprints to offset their CO2 output without the cost of hiring tree planters for months at a time.

  • The tree bombs impact the ground at 200 mph and are positioned to bury themselves as if they were planted by hand. 

  • A tree bomber can plant, 600 times as many trees per run as a single experienced tree plante it would take 20 workers one month to plant as many trees as a tree bomber can plant in a single run.

The Design:

Forests worldwide are facing a critical threat as deforestation, climate change, and pollution contribute to their rapid decline. The loss of forests not only diminishes biodiversity but also exacerbates global warming by reducing carbon sequestration. Pollution, including air and water pollution, further compounds the problem, compromising the health of ecosystems and the species that depend on them. Forests play a vital role in regulating the climate, providing habitats for countless organisms, and supplying essential resources to communities. The degradation of forests disrupts these delicate balances, leading to a loss of clean air, water, and fertile soil. Urgent action is needed to address these interconnected challenges and protect the invaluable ecosystems that sustain life on our planet.
