What is the impact of a tree?
Trees clean our air and eliminate harmful elements from the Earth; in order to do that, they absorb C02 and store carbon, also producing oxygen. Forests act as a carbon sink for the planet, ‘breathing in’ a net of 7.6 billion tonnes of CO2 per year. Anything that maintains or increases that sink is absolutely crucial.
Sustainable forestry management at a global level is an essential response to climate change and fundamental to achieving the goals of the 2015 Paris climate agreement and the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals.
Multiple benefits arise from sustainable forestry ecosystems, including improved health and well-being, cleaner air, greater economic productivity, and employment creation. Of all the potential clean energy solutions, trees are one of the cheapest, most geographically dispersed, most efficiently deployed and most widely available resource.
Where our trees are being planted?
Our forest of oaks is based in central France, in Luthenay Forest. The Chamonts woods cover an area of 110 ha in the department of Nièvre (Burgundy) on the banks of the Loire near the town of Luthenay Uxeloup.
