10.250 Trees Planted
Encounter the rapid deforestation and global warming.
We have commited to counteract the climate change by supporting reforestation all around the equator.
One tree absorbs about 308 kg of CO² in 25 years. Our global mission is to encourage people to produce less carbon emissions, less waste, and to plant enough trees to stop the climate crisis.
Reforestation - The Climate Solution
If we continue to pollute our world as we have done for the last two hundred years, the atmosphere will heat up faster and faster. If we reach a 1,5°C global warming above the long-time average, scientists predict, that the climate change will eventually become out of control. This would be the point of no return.
reverse the pollution
1. Real trees are planted with every purchase. Every minute about the size of 17 footballfields of rainforest are cut down, or just even burnt down worldwide. Therefore, let's take action!
2. Jobs get created through our planting and reforestation program. Local workers and their families are supported in many ways. Erden-Project helps them to build up a normal and sustainable life again.
3. Give back animals their habitats! Many species are endangered through the deforestation of the rainforests. With our project, we enable new wildlife to grow again and protect it.
4. Reverse the big carbon dioxide impact which we humans have already caused to the planet. Reverse your impact which is an average of four tons per year! One tree absorbs about one ton of carbon dioxide in its lifetime. So we better plant a lot.
It's a Challenge for Humanity
OUR APPROACH
All our Reforestation Projects pursue a holistic approach to reforestation and ecological restoration.
Our national leaders cooperate with villages that are committed to restoring their forests.We then hire and train local villagers to plant new trees.They plant native tree species.The villages protect their new forests because they have a vested interest in them.The survival rate of our high-quality seedlings is over 80%. It is even higher when hybridized with local seedlings.
A Contribution to end Poverty.
VILLAGERS MANAGE OUR NURSERIES & PLANTING SITES:
We start by hiring local villagers to plant trees. This gives them a consistent income so they can provide for their families again. As the reforestation effort goes on, healthy forests begin to emerge and the negative effects of deforestation begin to disappear.
Why…?
The destruction of healthy forest systems causes so many different problems. Trees provide a habitat for animals, purify water sources, control flooding and erosion and help to replenish the soil with nutrients needed for farming. When farmers can’t grow anything their farms fail and they have no option but to move to already overcrowded cities looking for work. Often they have no option then selling themselves or members of their families into slavery just to survive.

Eden Reforestation projects reduces extreme poverty and restores healthy forests by employing local villagers to plant millions of trees every year. Learn more about the work being done and how you can help.
