Plant in Guatemala
WHY PLANT TREES IN GUATEMALA?
FOREST LOSS
Guatemala has lost approximately 40% of its forest cover in recent decades due to illegal logging, land conversion and agricultural expansion.
RISK TO BIODIVERSITY
Deforestation threatens Guatemala’s biodiversity, which includes unique species such as the quetzal, jaguar and many others.
POVERTY AND DISPLACEMENT
Many rural communities depend on forest resources, and forest loss can negatively affect their livelihoods, contributing to poverty and displacement.

WHY IS YOUR SUPPORT IMPORTANT?
BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION
Guatemala is one of the most biodiverse countries in the world, and its forests are home to a unique variety of plant and animal species. Reforestation helps preserve these critical habitats and protect endangered species.
CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION
Guatemalan forests act as carbon sinks, capturing CO2 from the atmosphere and helping to combat global climate change.
WATERSHED PROTECTION
Forests play an essential role in the regulation of water resources. Reforestation helps maintain water quality, reduce erosion and prevent flooding.
