Pinus, the pines, is a genus of approximately 111 extant tree and shrub species. The genus is currently split into two subgenera: subgenus Pinus (hard pines), and subgenus Strobus (soft pines).

Seawater greenhouse technology aims to mitigate issues such as global water scarcity, peak water and soil becoming salted. [1]
