In an incredible effort to restore a once-destroyed forest, a photographer and his wife have planted two million trees over the course of 20 years. The result? A flourishing ecosystem where even the animals have returned. Sebastião Salgado, a Brazilian photographer, and his wife Lélia Deluiz Wanick Salgado have transformed a 1,502-acre piece of land that was once barren and desolate into a thriving forest.
