We plant trees. 

But that’s only one way Trees, Water & People (TWP) works toward healthy forests and landscapes. 

In the ongoing effort to protect and enrich the world’s forest resources, planting trees gets a lot of attention. It’s easy to understand and support because it’s something most of us can do, and it’s generally a good thing to undertake. Planting trees is an act of healing, for both the planter and the earth. 

But when we talk about reforestation, or restoration, there are so many other aspects that TWP is concerned about. What are the right trees for a given situation or environment? What do local people want and need on their landscape? What led to a need for trees? What do Traditional Ecological Knowledge and Western science say?

Planting trees in a changing climate is challenging. The impacts from climate change mean drastic variations in precipitation, increased frequency, size and intensity of wildfires, a drastic depletion of seed sources, and the degradation of soil health. Invasive species thrive in these conditions, and require mitigation and removal before habitat can be restored.

Science, Solutions, Solidarity

There are multiple, feasible and effective options to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to human-caused climate change, and they are available now, said scientists in the latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report.

Nature is in crisis. Climate change has altered ecosystems and the risk of species extinction increases with every degree of warming. Nature is our strongest ally against climate change. Learn more here.

Our planet is choking on plastic. It’s time for change. This World Environment Day join the global effort to #BeatPlasticPollution. Learn about what you can do and take action for the planet here.

environmental campaign

Connecting to nature is proven to increase both physical and mental wellbeing. 

What Is Environmental Awareness?

To understand environmental awareness, let’s have a look at what the environmentalist movement means-

Environmentalism is an ideology that places the need and responsibility of humans to respect, protect and defend the natural world from the damages caused by the previous and current generation of humans.

Why Is an Environmental Awareness Campaign Important?

There is no doubt that human activities have a great record in damaging the environment. The concentration of greenhouse gases has increased by a third since the Industrial Revolution shows our lack of concern towards the environment. Hence, we have to improve our environment and ensure that our behavior contributes to its sustainability.

Where Can We Apply the Learnings of the Environmental Awareness Campaign?

These are more environmental awareness campaign ideas, which includes the following:

House and Home:

A great place to start is eco-friendly homes and building materials. In recent years, developed countries have become increasingly aware of harmful construction materials such as asbestos, lead-based paint, and lead pipes.

People can express their environmental awareness by using natural construction materials that are not harmful to the environment. Brick, stone, wood, copper, and other materials are the best choices.

this is why environment is very important for us to know it's importance and to let us know how can we help our own environment.
