Why Planting the Right Tree Matters Most
A native sapling in the right place outlasts a hundred in the wrong one. Most of it comes down to the same thing: keep what is standing, and give back what has been lost.
Work with the people who live there
Forests last when the communities beside them have a reason and the means to look after them. The strongest projects are the ones local people lead, rather than the ones that arrive from far away with a plan.
Check the claims
Ask what a promise actually means: how many trees, planted where, and who looks after them afterwards. An honest project answers those questions gladly, and a good label gives you somewhere to read the answers.
