What is happening?
With over 123 million hectares of native forests, Australia has the seventh largest forest area in the world, making up three per cent of the Earth’s forests. These forests are unique and varied – ranging from ancient Gondwana rainforest and tropical mangroves to extensive bush lands made up of native acacia, melaleuca and eucalyptus trees. Your donation will help to plant millions of trees across Australia to recover forests affected by the 2019-20 Black Summer Bushfires and restore native habitat vital for wildlife.
It is estimated that more than 1 billion animals were killed in the fires. For example, some 8,000 koalas may have perished in last year’s bushfires, and the loss of eucalyptus trees and water supply will continue to affect them as recovery slowly starts to take place. About 30% of their key habitat has been destroyed.
The unfolding climate crisis, in Australia tells us something. Climate change is not in the future. It is in the here and now. We do not have eight years to fix the problem. We are living IN the problem. The worlds weather systems are interconnected. The amount of damage that the Australian wildfires have done to the climate is incalculable, and it will only get worse. We need to double down on precaution. And act. Now.
By purchasing a bracelet from us you can directly help the cause by planting new trees. Help us prevent bushfires in Australia from spreading catastrophically. Young, healthy forests can help suppress future wildfires and reduce the impact of smoke on public health and native ecosystems.
When you join our movement you will receive your beautiful hand made bracelet made of 100% Natural Australian Gemstones. You will also receive your Certificate of Appreciation. (Showing your contribution to the project)
You will also receive updates on Planting Projects you are a part of.
