They're cutting down a lot of the rainforest, and I think they should replant them! but how long would it take? :o

There is no definitive answer to your question. The giants of the rain forest tend to grow quickly, but it still takes many many years for them to become the "canopy giants" that they will eventually become. Any reforestation effort at all is better than none.
Good luck with your search for information.

different varieties of trees grow differently. there are strains of faster growing trees and those that are slower going. also depends on whether the tree is a hard wood or a soft wood. By quick growing I mean 10 years or less for full maturity. Slower growing take much, much longer. Nothing is going to happen overnight.

it is very individual, most hardwoods grow slowly , and will only be a few inches thick in 20 years, but a sycamore or tulip tree will do that in maybe 5 years.
