CHSA’s initiative of planting a tree for every new client provides many benefits including restoration of habitat for native wildlife and improvements in the condition of soil and water.
The aim is to create a dynamic, sustainable native forest which will assist with the removal of CO2 from the atmosphere and provide multiple environmental benefits.
High priority is placed upon a diversity of different species to maximise the benefits to the local environment with the seeds are collected from the local area.
- In 2017 Australia’s annual average per capita CO2 emissions was 16.88 tonnes.
- If 8-10 trees were planted per annum for every person in Australia, we could offset Australia’s carbon pollution for 1 year.
- This equates to 200-250 mil. trees planted per annum in Australia.
