WHY TREES ?

We can reverse the damage done

The importance of trees is unquestionable. They absorb carbon monoxide and generate oxygen, remove polluting particles, reduce global warming and the greenhouse effect, contribute to water conservation, limit erosion and sedimentation of rivers and protect biodiversity.
Photosynthesis. Every year, photosynthesizing organisms fix around 100 billion tons of carbon in the form of organic matter. 

Every tree contributes. A tree absorbs between 10 and 30 kilos of carbon dioxide every day.

Every person pollutesA person generates around 8,000 kilos of carbon monoxide annually.

We can reverse the damage done, but only if we act

The report “Deforestation Fronts; causes and responses in a changing world” of the WWF, analyzes 24 places that have a significant concentration of deforestation hotspots and where large areas of remaining forest are threatened. In the last 13 years, more than 43 million hectares of forest have been devastated in those areas alone, an area almost the size of Spain.

The deforestation of the Amazon rainforest can be attributed to many different factors at the local, national and international levels. The rainforest is seen as a resource for cattle grazing, valuable hardwoods, habitation space, agricultural space (especially for soybeans), roadworks (such as highways and smaller roads), medicine, and human profit. The trees are usually felled illegally.

Resilvester is a concept of large-scale conservation, aimed at restoring, returning to a supposed state close to the original (prior to human intervention) and protecting natural processes and wild areas, providing connectivity between the various areas that make up the spaces , protecting or reintroducing large predators and key species to increase biodiversity and achieve self-regulation of ecosystems.

In the Amazon alone, the most important tropical forest area in the world, more than 2,000 species of plants have been identified as useful, most of which are known by indigenous peoples for their medicinal and nutritional properties and as producers of oils, fats, waxes, varnishes, aromas, saponins, latex, rubbers, condiments, toxic, etc.

And it is that the Amazon forest brings us many benefits not only regionally but also globally.

It is therefore an area that plays a vital role in the conservation of species and the planet; and even to treat and reduce part of the environmental problems that have worsened in recent centuries, given the natural faculties or environmental services that are also their own.

Reforestation must be done intelligently so that we obtain a total reforestation.
