    Seed Bombing is awesome, in theory.   What could possibly go wrong?  ;-)

Seed bombing is about to jump to a whole new level of awesomeness. A fleet of unused  and decommissioned C-130 Hercules cargo planes, originally created to  drop land mines, will be recommissioned as foresters. Lockheed Martin — the quintessential military innovation company — has taken a 25 year  old idea from former UK RAF pilot Jack Walters and turned it into a  reality. The planes will be outfitted to each drop up to 900,000 trees  in one day and with 2,500 C-130’s sitting unused in 70 different  countries, this idea could make for a lot of little saplings.
“The possibilities are amazing,” Peter Simmons told the Guardian. “We  can fly at 1,000ft at 130 knots planting more than 3,000 cones a minute  in a pattern across the landscape – just as we did with landmines, but  in this case each cone contains a sapling. That’s 125,000 trees for each  sortie and 900,000 trees in a day.” The cones in question are  expertly formed to bury themselves in the soil of a deforested area at  the same distance that one would want them to be if planting the trees  by hand. The tree bombs don’t explode on impact but rather their casing  dissolves over time and they contain a measure of fertilizer and enough  moisture to ensure that the tree takes root.
