Green Jobs & Carbon Reduction
As the Sahara desert continues to encroach into farmland and forest, the process of desertification threatens livelihoods and stability across the Sahel. Planting food forests is arguably the most innovative solution to the problem – providing green jobs, contributing to the Great Green Wall, and capturing carbon.
PLANTING TREES: HECTARES
Planting trees, such as mango & cashew, is a simple but effective way to improve soil, create jobs, and reduce carbon. To.org will be planting 10 million trees in the Sahel in the next two years.
GREAT GREEN WALL
