FACE Sustainable Forestry Projects Trees

absorb CO2 from the atmosphere in order to grow. Climate Neutral Group invests in sustainable forestry projects by either planting new forests or by protecting existing ones. These forest are under the management of the Face Foundation. Since 1990 the Foundation has planted and protected more than 55,000 hectares of forest, including a reforestation project in Malaysia. Deforestation is responsible for approximately 20% of all greenhouse gas emissions worldwide, and can account for up to 80% of emissions in developing countries! It is therefore of utmost importance that we protect our forests.
