TROPICAL REFORESTATION INITIATIVE

Welcome to the website for World Stewardship Institute's Tropical Reforestation Initiative

Welcome to Our Tropical Reforestation Program in Guatemala

Rebuilding forests by planting trees directly combats climate change.  Trees take carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere and sequester it into plant mater. Tropical rain forests, as the lungs of the planet, are a primary source of CO2 absorption. They are also increasingly in peril from cattle ranching, export agriculture, and the timber industries. Helping to reforest tropical land is a high impact means to offset your carbon footprint. Planting trees in the tropics also helps those who are most affected by climate change and who depend upon the forests for food, thatch for housing and medicines. 

At World Stewardship Institute, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, we offer both educational resources on the many benefits of tropical reforestation and the ability to help climate vulnerable communities rebuild their forests while at the same time offsetting your carbon footprint.

The tree of life in Eden's garden is a symbol of the key role forests play in our spiritual, physical, mental, economic, and ecological health.  Yet in this nation and around the world, forests -- gifts from God -- are in crises.  

 

During this webinar you will hear from forest and climate experts Bill Moomaw, Danna Smith and Chad Hanson.  The scientific information they offer will be put into context by Judea-Christian leaders.  

 

You will come away informed, inspired, and enthused so you can share, teach, preach and advocate for the forests, benefiting all.  There will be time for questions and answers after the presentation.
