Support for the children’s project “Plant-for-the-planet”

The aim of this global project is for the children of the world to plant several million trees. You can check on the Tree Counter the progress that has been made so far. For that reason, this year I bought several Christmas presents from the on-line shop in order to support this project financially.

TIP: Search the on-line shop for appropriate gifts!
Inform your children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, friends and acquaintances of this children’s project!

Trees in the Baltic Region

During a bus trip through the Baltic region, we were able to admire healthy nature, forests and trees. Healthy, fresh and green trees were to be found in the towns and cities, not only in the forest areas. We also enjoyed beautiful natural wetland areas.

We were appalled, however, at the destruction caused to a forest by a colony of birds!

Thousands of cormorants find here their ideal habitat!

Many years ago, a large section of forest was destroyed by fire and nature has returned to take care of the re-forestation. In order to prevent such destruction in the future, fire breaks have been created: A large, clear strip of land ensures that the fire cannot jump to the next section of forest. A successful project!

One can rest easy!

Hopefully, the Baltic region will remain a natural treasure for many generations to come!

Trees in Tuscany

While on a bus trip through Tuscany, we observed that not only was the fresh green apparent in northern Europe, but also in the south with the typical cypresses, olive groves and vineyards which characterize this area.

Huge tree plantations can be found alongside the motorway. The saplings are sold throughout Europe.
