Here are two quotes from the article: "BioCarbon Engineering wants to use drones for good, using the technology to seed up to one billion trees a year, all without having to set foot on the ground." "With two operators manning multiple drones, he thinks it should be possible to plant up to 36,000 trees a day, and at around 15% of the cost of traditional methods." Lauren Fletcher never made these statements himself. They are extrapolations from the article, and the pieces of information are not directly connected. One is a long-term goal, while one is a short-term goal.
