Visit Replanting the Rainforests
In 2009 we are rolling out is a pilot for the campaign. Starting in 2010 we will be executing a ten-year program to "Turn the Tide on Global Deforestation" Not another Conservation Program This is not a Conservation Program. Conservation is critical, but 80% of the planets native forests are gone and conservation is no longer enough. Not another Tree Planting Program This is not simply Tree Planting program. There are several other tree planting programs, but these programs are fatally flawed. These programs do not have control of the lands where the trees are planted and in most cases the trees are planted in areas that have a history of deforestation. Sustainably Managed Permanent Rainforest Habitats The Replanting the Rainforest Program creates Sustainably Managed Permanent Rainforest Habitats. Within these habitats both sustainable forestry and permagriculture techniques will be employed that will as close as possible mimic natural processes so as not to upset the continuity of the forest environment. The natural array of biodiversity is meticulously safeguarded, while at the same time we create the economic engine necessary to prevent the un-sustainable exploitation of the resource. Our focus is to find under-producing agricultural lands, cattle ranches and degraded forests and restore them to more natural conditions. Our methods include analog forestry, wildlife habitat enhancement, biomass carbon negative energy production, biochar soil augmentation and edible forest gardens. |
