GROWING TINY FORESTS

A GLOBAL IDEA WORTH SPREADING! 

“Myawaki Tiny Forests are fast growing highly dense mini forests which support biodiversity and local wildlife, lowering temperatures, harvesting rainwater, making soil nutritious, and absorbing carbon from the atmosphere.

This is a proven method for reforesting degraded land, rain forests and fighting climate change and pollution in inner cities. In Pakistan, 50 sites have been chosen in Lahore to combat climate change by reducing temperatures and air pollution

The technique was devised by Akira Miyawaki, a Japanese botanist and expert in plant ecology, specializing in seeds and the study of natural forests. He was active worldwide as a specialist in the restoration of natural vegetation on degraded land planting over 40 million trees and advised projects in 1,700 locations.”
