Plante Árvore sobre Rodas

On the bycicle adventure, the Institution directors intend to go through many cities of Brazil, inviting people to plant trees

 


It's clear all the advance of the Global Warming and its effects, but there is a way to fight this big problem in this century and this solution does not come only by scientific technologies; trees are included in this work. By planting trees, we can neutralize the CO2, and objecting this, the 'Plant Tree on the Wheels' project will plant the greatest number of trees as possible, travelling from the brazilian southern extreme to the nothern extreme.


The idea of starting this adventure, which will start em Arroio of Chui and has the goal to reach the Oiapoque, came from the IBFLORESTAS directors. In a trip to the inner region of Sao Paulo, next to the road, the brothers started to verify the difference of the ecologic scene compared to what they saw when visiting the region 30 years ago.We used to see beautiful forests, and today they became large plantation areas; we traveled for hours and hours and we saw a few forest areas", says William Aquino, communication director of IBFLORESTAS.

Starting the mobilization in the city of Londrina, the project has the objective to sensitize people, awakening them to the importance of the environmental conscience, in a way of making all of them do more actives on the natural resources protection.

According to Wiliam Aquino, the 'Plant Tree on the Wheels' wants to plant around 200 million trees, involving people from the various regions through which the project will go through and will bring resources to the riparian owners, by the social carbon. "We want to encourage the participation of the riparian population, environmentalists, schools, public entities, enterprises. Finally, all the population have to be envolved", Aquino highlight.

The IBFLORESTAS director w ait to count on the support, the reception, and also the participation of everybody who lives in the cities they will go through. The course will end in the Oiapoque city, northern extreme of Brazil. However, traveling throughout Brazil planting trees is not the only thing expected, but also to focus the sight of people to make a more conscious country, in which everyone can help traveling a stretch of this ecologic adventure and planting their own trees.
 

Prepare your bycicle and participate on the 'Plant Tree on the Wheels'. We will publish more information about this great adventure soon.
