Amazonia Reforestation

www.myreforestation.com
Amazonia Reforestation plants tropical trees for profit, socio-economic development and expanded wildlife habitat in Vichada, Colombia. Investors can participate in this program by buying fast growing tropical trees and sharing in the returns based on a 10 year cycle. We follow a sustainable model with mixed-species cultivation and staggered harvesting and replanting for the maximum benefit of the planet and local wildlife. Our program also seeks to commercialize native tree species that otherwise would be logged from natural forests, by supporting native tree seed collection, nurseries and planting. We believe that biodiverse plantations with modern forestry practices offer the best results for humans and local wildlife alike.

Co2 Tropical Trees

www.co2tropicaltrees.com
CO2 Tropical Trees is a tropical tree planting program in Vichada, Colombia. Consumers can make their vehicles carbon neutral by planting sufficient tropical trees to balance their car’s CO2 emissions. A tropical tree planted under this program sequesters an average of 50 lbs or 22.6 kg of carbon per year. Trees are planted in plantations and natural reserves, with an emphasis on native tree species where possible for expanded wildlife habitat. This program fights climate change and global warming in a direct and scientifically verifiable manner by not only sequestering carbon, but also by seeding cloud cover. Reducing global warming promotes biodiversity by protecting species endangered by climate change.
