Our Vinnytsa reforestation project is about immediate response to the environmental catastrophe happening in Ukraine right now. A forest territory, greater that 33% of German forest cover has been damaged. A forest territory equivalent to England's forest cover has been destroyed. Without forests, Ukraine won't be able to sustain a healthy, resilient environment for the people of Ukraine and for the European continent. So our response, is to act now, plant today, so we all can have a robust environment tomorrow.
We are reforesting for the wellbeing of people, both in Ukraine and in the rest of Europe. Environment has no borders. Ukraine is the largest country in Europe, and in response to the ever pressing climate crisis and the devastating impacts of war, we are creating new forests - the backbone of nature's resilience - to heal nature's scars and support its recovery
We all need trees to breath. Forests are the key weapon against climate change. Forests are carbon sinks. Forests are homes to live creatures, big and small. Forests are keepers of underground waters. And since nature does not have borders, by supporting reforestation in Vinnytsa, you are supporting our shared ecosystem, that is home for you and I alike.
The money collected will be directed on procuring seedlings and carrying out planing. Additionally, we will support members of local community who will guard the newly created forest.
We are Vika and Natasha - co-founders of Treepilya. Mentored by Ecosia, we execute our reforestation projects with a team of professionals from National Forest Agency and a team of highly specialized ecologists
Reforeestation is key to fighting against climate change. Our projects are executed based on the local ecosystem analysis and employ only local materials to ensure a long lasting survival effect.
