Did you know that 20-50 billion mangroves, when taking seagrass recovery into account, is equivalent to 1 trillion terrestrial trees in terms of carbon drawdown? 🧵 (1/5)
That means a global effort to halt climate change would require up to 50-fold less trees than the proposed 1 trillion tree target from the ETH Zurich study. (2/5)
Restoring 20-50 billion mangroves could provide us with about 15 years extra time to draw down our emissions and reduce our ecological footprint in order to mitigate climate change. (3/5)
It’s a lot of mangroves, for sure, yet Earthbanc’s team demonstrated drone tree planting could achieve 100,000 trees per day in Myanmar. It’s a message of great hope to know that we could buy ourselves that kind of time to address our most pressing climate-related issues. (4/5)
Ultimately hand-based tree planting is more accurate for survival rates now, but drone technology will improve over time.🌱 (5/5)
Please all #ReFi projects looking to issue NFTs and tokens backed by mangrove trees, talk to us about how you can access mangrove trees via our API, delivering mangrove tree experiences into your dapps & NFTs! We are planting 20 million mangrove trees this year, lets regenerate!

Ecosystems and trees store vast amounts of carbon. Protecting them from further deforestation and replanting new forests, is critical to addressing climate change. Join us in supporting farmers and communities to protect and plant! (2/4)
*Green finance for carbon removal*
We support the issuance of green digital bonds on blockchain, to remove carbon. Our finance supports projects for 20 years to ensure carbon removal is permanent, creating the impact required to reverse climate change. (3/4)
