Trees

Imagine standing under your favourite tree, surrounded by nine trees. Ten clusters of trees like this would create a small woodland. Join together ten small woodlands and you have a small forest. A thousand small forests mean a really big forest with 1 million trees. Now imagine a million big forests – a trillion trees: 1,000,000,000,000, one sixth of the trees that used to cover the Earth – all absorbing carbon and creating habitats for biodiversity to flourish. That’s the vision of 1t.org, a platform for planting a trillion new trees by 2030, launched in Davos last week. Join the movement.
