    I mean, it’s pretty obvious… China is huge, Vietnam is tiny compared to it. The reforested area is, therefore, much larger in China.

        It’s hard to take care of the forest when there is still tons of inexploded murican ordnance in it.

          That and the forests got fucked up by free and democratic chemical warfare. Badly.

        the forests are well recovered from the war. it was 50 years ago, and the monsoons really make growth relatively easy.
