Earth Day Birthday
The Earth Day Birthday Campaign is designed to give those of us that care about the environmental health of our planet a vehicle for effecting change. This is a grass roots campaign that is designed to empower people to help shape the destiny of the Earth without the need of governments and global institutions. This campaign is designed to engage people and to reach across borders and join together all those that care about our environmental future.
Earth Day Birthday - Give a Gift to Our Planet - Replanting the Rainforests
Replanting
the Rainforests is not a passive program for conserving existing
rainforests. Protecting our last remaining forests is vitally
important, but it is not sufficient. Over 80 percent of the planet's
native forests are gone! We must do more if we are to maintain a
healthy environment for future generations.
Replanting the
Rainforests is not another "Plant a Tree" campaign. Virtually all
tree-planting campaigns in third world countries take place on lands
that have a history of illegal deforestation. Many programs take place
on farmlands. Ask yourself: What do farmers do for a living? They plant
things, they grow things, and they cut them down and sell them. This is
clearly not the way forward if we want to permanently reestablish our
lost forests.
What makes us different?
Sustainably Managed Permanent Rainforest Habitats
The Replanting the Rainforest Program creates Sustainably Managed Permanent Rainforest Habitats. Within these habitats both sustainable forestry and permagriculture techniques will be employed that will as close as possible mimic natural processes so as not to upset the continuity of the forest environment. The natural array of biodiversity is meticulously safeguarded, while at the same time we create the economic engine necessary to prevent the un-sustainable exploitation of the resource.
Our focus is to find under-producing agricultural lands, cattle ranches and degraded forests and restore them to more natural conditions. Our methods include analog forestry, wildlife habitat enhancement, biomass carbon negative energy production, and BioChar soil augmentation and edible forest gardens.
The Earth Day Birthday Campaign is run by the Eco Preservation Society in conjunction with Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation and the Rainforest Trust and in cooperation with TreeBanking LLC, and I Empower U.
