BENEFITS OF RESTORATION:
Growing trees where forests have been degraded – or where there was no previous tree cover – provides multiple benefits to nature, from ecosystem stability to cleaner air, water and soil.

1. CARBON SEQUESTORATION 
   Trees absorb carbon dioxide as they grow, helping to fight climate change by removing and storing carbon from the air.
2. WILDLIFE HABITAT 
   Restoring forest cover protects and enhances habitat for wildlife and increases biodiversity.
3. CLEAN ENVIRONMENT
   Trees remove pollutants and toxins from the air, soil and groundwater and prevent soil erosion near waterways.

FOREST FUN FACTS:

Research shows that spending time around trees can reduce stress, improve immunity, lower blood pressure, and accelerate recovery from illness or trauma. Furthermore, when you hug a tree, you release a hormone called oxytocin – known as the hormone of love and trust – which gives you that warm, fuzzy feeling.
