The Structure of TheLEAF
What | Why | How | Who
TheLEAF, at a basic level, is a charity for reforestion.
We plant trees, partnering with local communities so they receive the benefits from their forests, whilst acting as forest guardians.
HOWEVER…
We’re not just about trees in the ground, a monoculture without natural depth?
Rubbish, in our opinion (and in the opinion of the scientific majority).
The older the forests, the better, reaching their apex after centuries.
The destruction of our forests takes this away from all of us, and the species they support. But, crucially, while patches still exist, the value they contain persists.
Therefore…
We can grow them out.
Why?
Digging into the biodiversity crisis
How?
Research, Partner, Stabilise, Expand
Who are we?
The people behind theLEAF
“Gold is a luxury. Trees are necessities. Man can live and thrive without gold, but we cannot survive without trees.”
