Simply planting trees is not enough. To provide a solution to the climate crisis and alleviate poverty, it is essential to take a holistic approach to tree growing that is driven by local experts and the communities that depend on the trees for survival. bbc.co.uk/news/science-e… At TREE AID, we not only work in partnership with communities to grow trees that support the local environment and restore degraded land, we also ensure that communities have the access and tools they need to manage and protect their forests, now and in the future.
