Few people really understand how important it is to reforest the Equator. If we humans have cut down 58% of the world's forests... just imagine ... how are all 7 Billion of us still breathing... not to mention the animals and machines also requiring oxygen to function. I am professional tree planter and I have seen with my own eyes the positive effects of planting trees on the Equator. The temperatures are lowers within just a few years in the whole area around our projects. Water starts flowing and all kinds of wildlife returns. Trees are the very center of so many of our earth's life cycles. My mission is to plant 1,000,000 diverse trees by 2020.
We have a great tree team working with us. So many of them are volunteers. Some are paid tree planters, seed collectors, nursery workers and salespeople. Check out this amazing animation made by a young artist. He did a great job capturing the essence of our reforestation work. Welcome to my feed. I'll be sharing all kinds of fun things about planting trees and sustainable living in Costa Rica where I live and beyond. Follow me!!
PURA VIDA!
