Threatened trees within threatened landscapes
The need is urgent. According to Botanic Gardens Conservation International and its State of the World’s Trees report, around 30% of the world’s tree species are threatened with extinction. That is a stark figure. It reflects what we see on the ground: forests under pressure and the risk of species quietly disappearing.
Just two trees left…
In Kobujoi Forest we only found two mature East African greenheart trees from which we could collect seeds. But this Earth Day could help save Kenya’s native trees.
Meet the people fighting to save Kenya’s trees
We’re working with local communities to find, grow and plant trees that are threatened with extinction. Through hands-on training, we’re equipping people to identify and monitor threatened species, grow their seeds in community tree nurseries, plant them in reforestation projects and protect them for the long term.
Donate today to plant trees, restore forests and transform lives.
