Every ticket = a tree planted
For every ticket purchased, Conscious Action will plant a tree through Trees for the Future, the amazing organisation on a mission to lift a million of people out of extreme poverty by teaching them how to transform their land into a Forest Gardens. And the bi-product of that - more trees on the planet!
We are supporting Trees for the Future so that we can contribute to their incredible social AND environmental impact.
MORE ABOUT TREES FOR THE FUTURE
(from their website)
Planting trees provides families with more than just food. It provides income, empowerment, unity, leadership, education and even saves lives. When we can teach people to value themselves and their environment, they see amazing improvements in their standard of living.
Your donation has a direct impact on the earth and lives of the people who need it most. By helping us plant trees, you give families the ability to transition from unsustainable farming techniques to a Forest Garden system. Your donation not only sustains and empowers them, but also changes their lives forever.
We are currently working with over 3,000 farming families across five countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. Our focus is on the implementation of Forest Garden Programs in Cameroon, Kenya, Senegal, Uganda and Tanzania, as these are areas where we are having the biggest impact and seeing amazing results.
WHY WE LOVE TREES
-
Trees are our planet’s lungs, without them, we can't breathe.
-
Each year, humans destroy 80 million square kilometres of the world’s forests and due to this, our planet is getting warmer causing extreme weather patterns, rising sea levels and conflict.
-
An average size tree produces enough oxygen in one year to keep a family of four breathing.
-
By planting 20 million trees, the earth and its people will be provided with 260 million more tons of oxygen. Those same 20 million trees will remove 10 million tons of CO2.
-
Forest Gardens consist of thousands of trees that provide families in Africa with sustainable food sources, livestock feed, products to sell, fuel wood and a 400% increase in their annual income in four years.
-
Trees provide shelter and food for our wildlife which impacts our natural ecosystems.
-
Trees in the landscape relax us, lower heart rates, and reduce stress.
-
Trees are beautiful.
-
Trees provide ancient wisdom and are deeply ingrained in our history and culture.
