What are we dealing with in Argentina?

Plastic pollution

Plastic pollution

The Ocean currently receives 13 million tons of plastic annually. This will triple in the next 20 years. In Argentina, by 2019, 83.2% of the pollutant waste on the coast was plastic-based.

Read more about plastic pollution in the oceans of the world in the United Nation Environment Programme.

Carbon Emissions

Carbon Emissions

Argentina produces 178.94 million tons of CO2 per year. Luckily, carbon represents only 1% of the energy used in the country. However, we do not have a great global ranking according to the 2021 Climate transparency Record, so this means we have a long way to go!

Deforestation

Deforestation

Argentina had 11,504 deforestation alerts in 2020; 78% were caused by fires. SAT is a nationally-designed satellite tool to keep track of Argentina’s woods’ conservation status.

Deforestation

We commit to planting 20,000 trees before August 1st, 2023, Pachamama (Earth) Day.

What do 20k trees look like?

20K trees are equivalent to

  • 500,000 m2 of forest
  • 50 hectares of forest
  • Half of the size of El Chalten village (equivalent to the total size of The Vatican City)
  • 70 fútbol (soccer) fields

 

Why August 1st?

Every August 1st, we commemorate Pachamama Day – Mother Earth Day. This celebration is held to give thanks, ask for and bless all the abundance that mother earth so generously offers us.

Where will those trees be planted?

The native trees (Coihues and cypresses) will be planted in the Rio Tigre basin, a region located on the outskirts of Cholila, a small village at the foot of the Andes Mountain range in the province of Chubut. This place has suffered many fires that have devastated several hectares of native forest.

 

Which type of tree do we plant?

Coihues and cypresses which are native species to Patagonia.
