Without addressing deforestation and climate change, the consequences could include a temperature rise of 2.5°C to 10°C, up to 30% decline in agricultural productivity, and the extinction of up to 40% of species by the end of the century. In the short term we risk losing up to 28,000 species per year, disrupting water cycles that provide water to 1.6 billion people, and causing 6 billion tons of soil erosion per year. The consequences could be severe and irreparable, and we risk compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs.

Planting trees is an important way to combat deforestation and climate change. Trees play a vital role in our ecosystem by absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, producing oxygen, and providing habitats for wildlife. Deforestation contributes to global warming by reducing the amount of carbon dioxide that can be absorbed from the atmosphere. By planting trees, we can help to restore forests, increase the amount of carbon dioxide that is absorbed from the atmosphere, and create habitats for wildlife. Additionally, trees provide a number of other benefits, such as improving air and water quality, preventing soil erosion, and providing shade and shelter. By supporting Cherry Troop and our mission to plant one cherry tree for every purchase, you can help to make a positive impact on the world and create a more sustainable future for generations to come.
