Planting Trees to Grow Forests | Eden Reforestation Projects

submitted by eric3579

2 years 7 months 2 weeks ago

Nature

There is a difference between planting a tree and growing a tree.

We work with local communities to plant and protect trees that grow into healthy forests. To help ensure the trees we plant develop into mature forests, we plant native species at the right time and place through a variety of production methods. After four to six years, many of these trees naturally regenerate, and the ecosystem begins to flourish once again.

Go f*ck yourself. *promote

Self promoting this video and sending it back into the queue for one more try; last queued - promote requested by original submitter eric3579.

*quality restoration project. Now we just need 10000 more organizations like this and a time machine to get them back to the 70's and we just might have a chance at stopping forest loss. Unfortunately, today, climate change means native flora is struggling world wide, so just replanting them doesn't solve the big issue. You can't be successful at reforestation in a drought.

Boosting this quality contribution up in the Hot Listing - declared quality by newtboy.

jokingly says...

any homeowner trying to replace a tree knows that there is a difference between planting and growing a tree.

if only the effort to keep a wanted tree alive was equal to the ease of raising the bastard tree growing along the fencing, against the house, or rising out of flower beds was the same...no street would be w/o a canopy.

I was waiting for the "... and only for the cost of a cup of coffee per day..." but it never came. So this is best conservation advert I've seen in a while.
