Planting
and nurturing a tree helps reduce global warming as trees absorb CO2 and
release oxygen. A mature tree sequesters up to a ton of Carbon in its life
time. It also gives out enough oxygen required by two human beings.
Planting
a tree can be one of the most satisfying activities of our lives. Nurturing a
tree we have planted and watching it grow and bear fruit is an extremely
rewarding experience. Apart from this, here are a few more reasons to help you
start planting:
- As a gift: Gifting a tree to a friend, a colleague, a dear one can be a very unique experience.
- In memory of a loved one..
- To mitigate our individual carbon footprint.
- As part of our corporate social responsibility.
Sustainable
Green Initiative plants fruit trees on fallow/ community lands and on lands
owned by marginal and Bpl farmers. We work with self help groups and NGOs
who help us identify right beneficiaries who can continue the process of
planting and nurturing trees. (See our methodology).
At
Sustainable Green Initiative, we plant trees to help the fight against climate
change and also hunger, poverty and rural migration. By planting a tree
through us, you help in doing your bit to mitigate your carbon footprint and
carry on the fight against hunger, poverty and climate change.
The simplest way to combat climate change is to plant
trees:
Trees breathe in Carbon di-oxide and
through the process of photo-synthesis create food for themselves and breathe
out Oxygen.
