Planting trees has a number of benefits for mitigating climate change and supporting biodiversity As a climate solution the conservation and restoration of forests is a key solution because it helps to support biodiversity and absorb carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere to store in their biomass.
Ecologi funds planting through their platform coordinates with local communities to ensure geologically appropriate tress are planted in the right places so they can survive and thrives in the correct environment.
In addition to carbon sequestration, planting trees are also beneficial for the following reasons:
- Trees provide habitat, shade, shelter, and food for local wildlife, therefore supporting biodiversity and preventing species loss
- Trees can provide products like fruits and nuts without causing harm to the trees
- Tree roots help stabilise soil and minimise this risk of landslides and desertification due to degraded soil.
- Trees enable the purification of air and water sources
- Trees have been proven to have a positive impact on mental health
The average tree absorbs approximately 25kg of COz per year and 1 tonnes of COz during its lifetime.
