Another press release ...

A few weeks ago, I wrote about some interesting press releases I received which I can't really publish because they don't have anything to do with the town I cover. Here is another one of those press releases which is worth a second look:

Trees for Children: Planting Forests for Life

New Cuyama, CA- Home and Business Owners Nationwide are Creating Forests that are Reducing Global Warming.

Trees for Children is replanting the trees used in the construction of homes and businesses as part of its education programs with youth and adults. Through hands-on restoration projects, they teach people how to take responsibility for the planet by creating and caretaking forests that sequester excess carbon that contributes to global warming.

Our buildings are the single largest carbon contributor to the global climate crisis yet this understanding often takes the backseat to people's perception that vehicles are to blame. People nationwide are taking steps to counter their contribution to the climate crisis by taking responsibility for the buildings they dwell within.

The average new home requires 13,837 board feet of lumber, according to the National Association of Home Builders, and that's more than 90 trees on average. Has your home or business been replanted? Trees for Children, a non-profit project, offers this unique and viable solution for people to take responsibility for the buildings that house their families and their livelihood.

Trees for Children has a unique tree planting program occurs year round and is a vital part of a forest restoration demonstration and research program. They use natural water harvest techniques, mixed species tree plantings, weather windows, and tree protecting strategies to help ensure healthy growth of the forests they plant. They help to create permanent and diverse forest systems that bind carbon, build soil, slow water and wind created erosion, produce oxygen, and provide important habitat for native flora and fauna. All of this in an effort to bring balance the climate both locally and globally.

If you would like to consider having your home or business replanted, and receive a certificate that shares, "My Home/Business Has Been Replanted" please visit the Trees for Children website at www.treesforchildren.org to join many others who are taking responsibility for the buildings they dwell within. Together with our children, we can combat global warming as we Plant Forests for Life...
