Et nuisse aux animaux, aux océans et aux écosystèmes.

Haiti Takes Root: a partnership to reforest Haiti
Trees are critical. Two hundred years ago, Haiti’s mountainous slopes were covered with dense forests, tropical hardwoods, fruit trees, and valuable crops. Since then, tree cover has decreased to ~30%. This massive deforestation is the result of a complex interplay of historic, economic, social, and ecological factors. These factors have caused drought and famine in one part of the world while causing environmental degradation in another.

It is in response to the strain on local agriculture and the dramatic loss of tree cover in Haiti that we have created Haiti Takes Root. HTR is a unique public-private coalition led by the Government of Haiti, whose goal is to reverse over 200 years of deforestation in-country. J/P HRO is a founding member of this coalition comprised of the Government of France, World Bank, and Parker Foundation. We believe that re-greening Haiti will take massive injection of new resources, more efficient programming, and research that brings innovative practices to the economic, energy, and environment sectors.
How are we helping?
We are partnering with ACCESO on farmer relief packages and sustainable agroforestry. ACCESO’s model is unique because farmers receiving material and technical support also receive a guarantee from ACCESO to buy their crops. The link between immediate relief and long-term sustainability - a focus for J/P - is thus clear.
The project will begin with an initial integration with Cavaillon, where we will co-finance:
a tree nursery/anchor farm;
the distribution of approximately 300 “farmer relief kits” containing seeds, seedlings, and tools; and,
provide farmer extension services and guaranteed purchase of crops over a 5-year period.
In partnership with American Red Cross we are working on urban planning and community mobilization for an urban greening initiative. After the 2010 earthquake, a spontaneous settlement emerged in Canaan and has since grown to become the fourth-largest city in Haiti with a population over 300,000. Two main activities were implemented as part of this objective of the project
The design, construction, and supervision of green public spaces.
The training and mobilization of Urban population on tree planting and protection.
What is our ultimate goal?
Promotion of environmentally sustainable agroforestry value chains
Preservation of critical protected areas
Reduction in use of unsustainable charcoal and firewood
With increased public and private partnerships, more efficient programming, and increased productivity of reforestation efforts, we will improve climate resilience, reduce environmental degradation, and increase rural livelihoods.

13.01.2017 I’m so proud of my little celery! She’s about a month old and grew from a stump leftover from cooking :) Let’s name her Cassia.
Daily reminder that companies litter and pollute 100 times more than any one person and we should shame them daily.

From the school strike outside Town Hall in Sydney. Look at all these amazing signs! Look at all these amazing people demanding a better future from our politicians! I’m so proud!
solving Climate Change is like a high school Group Project except with 7 billion people
gentle ways to help the earth
• bring your own bags to the market
• always recycle (simple but very effective)
•use a menstrual cup (goddesses, TRUST me)
• use a reusable water bottle
• use the same towel more than once (i typically pick one towel and use it for my shower for a week instead of using a different one every day) EDIT: yes, a LOT of people use a different towel everyday, i’ve been getting a lot of comments about this..
• unplug everything (instead of just turning off the lamp, unplug it)
• if you see trash, pick it up
• go thrifting
• donate (clothes, furniture, shoes, etc.)
• skip the paper receipt and get it sent to your email instead
• buy local
• open the windows instead of using a/c
• fill your house with plants
Whenever I carry a big heavy duffel bag, I feel like a BrBa/BCS character delivering a load of cash from immoral criminal activity, while in reality I’m on a (much more) noble mission to get a month’s worth of recyclable waste to the not-local-enough recycling centre
