Denmark's Green Gamble: Billion Trees and a Methane Tax
Denmark is embarking on its greenest century yet, pledging to plant 1 billion trees and convert 10% of farmland into forests by 2044 with a hefty 43 billion kroner ($6.1B) budget. Starting in 2030, livestock farmers will face methane taxes beginning at 300 kroner per tonne, soaring to 750 kroner by 2035—the first of its kind globally. This bold move aims to slash agricultural emissions by 1.8 million tons CO2e and transform Denmark’s landscape, proving that going green can be both ambitious and fiscally hefty.
