Project report: 50,000 trees planted in Bhutan! 📝🌳 ⃗ → 500 volunteers engaged ⃗ → 26 tree species planted ⃗ → 300 individuals trained This project is restoring biodiversity and habitats, benefiting over 1,000 communities by planting high-value fruit and timber trees on fallow and degraded lands. It's not just about environmental restoration; it's about economic empowerment too! We're boosting income for farmers, creating jobs for local youth, and supporting 929 households with increased fruit sales and improved food security, all while contributing to the local economy. Community forests and institutions involved are also benefiting, enhancing ecosystem services and improving landscape quality. This holistic approach fosters sustainable development and promotes environmental health in Bhutan. #Bhutan #Restoration #Reforestation #Community

Did you know your life depends on forests? 🌳 We all rely on forests in countless ways. They generate the oxygen we breathe, provide the water that quenches our thirst, and sustain the livelihoods of 1.6 billion people around the world... including yourself. 🌍🌱 Forests play a critical role in maintaining a healthy climate and, ultimately, in ensuring our survival. Yet, despite their importance, they continue to be under threat. It's time to take action and protect our precious forests for future generations. #Reforestation #Forestry #Trees #ClimateAction

The summer heat is rising... trees can help that. 🌡️🌳 In the face of urban heat islands intensified by climate change, low-income communities are hit hardest by scorching heat waves. Boosting tree cover on paved surfaces isn't just about aesthetics—it's a practical way to cool down neighborhoods and cut energy bills. Trees aren't evenly distributed across our cities The good news is, by planting more in underserved areas, we ensure everyone can enjoy cleaner air, cooler streets, and green spaces for all to relax and play. Let's keep planting and caring for trees in our communities to build healthier, more livable cities for everyone. 🏙️

When big companies make impactful strides towards sustainability, we notice. We were inspired to learn that Kimberly-Clark is setting ambitious goals to protect our forests. 🌳 Their commitment? Cut their use of natural forests for paper products by 50% by 2025 — and go completely natural forest-free by 2030. This is an important step towards safeguarding old-growth forests in Canada, Alaska, the Southeastern U.S., Brazil, and Chile — home to amazing biodiversity. Old-growth forests, also known as primary or ancient forests, have developed for a long period of time with minimal disruption. They play an essential planetary role, providing multi-layered habitat and sheltering sensitive species, contributing ecosystem services we rely on like clean air and drinking water, holding a lion’s share of the aboveground carbon stored in trees (carbon stored in living plant tissue), and more. Sadly, they're under threat due to climate change, wildfire, insect infestations, disease, deforestation, and other factors. But that’s not all! Kimberly-Clark plans to source 90% of their fiber sustainably, including by using recycled paper and working with responsibly managed forests. They're even exploring eco-friendly alternatives like eucalyptus and wheat straw. Now is the time to protect these vital ecosystems. Let's cheer on Kimberly-Clark and encourage more companies to follow suit! https://lnkd.in/ekw57MxU

Imagine if every community embraced trees like India does during Van Mahotsav! 🎉🌳 Each July, India comes together for this special festival dedicated to planting trees and preserving our environment. Since 1950, Van Mahotsav has highlighted the vital role of trees in maintaining ecological balance and protecting our planet. At One Tree Planted, we're dedicated to India’s greener future through our focus on planting fruit trees. Working alongside local communities across twelve states, we aim to fight hunger, support local economies, and combat climate change. 🌏 We wanted to acknowledge Van Mahotsav, as his festival is not just a celebration—it's a call to action that should inspire communities worldwide to join in planting trees for a greener, brighter future! 👏 #VanMahotsav #Reforestation #ClimateAction #Sustainability

June brought fantastic climate news! 🌏 → The EU's approval of the Nature Restoration Law is a game-changer, aiming to restore 20% of EU land and sea areas by 2030 and fully recover degraded ecosystems by 2050. This bold move will boost biodiversity and safeguard Europe's natural heritage for generations to come. → Additionally, remember our 7th grade science lessons on the ozone layer? Recent studies show promising results: global policies, including bans on harmful chemicals, have accelerated the ozone layer's recovery beyond expectations. This progress highlights the power of collective action in protecting our planet from harmful UV rays. Curious for more uplifting climate news from June? Visit our blog to discover these stories and more. https://lnkd.in/eM5qGBmv Let's celebrate these wins and continue working together to nurture and preserve our planet. 👏 #climatewins #sustainability #goodnews #climate #news
