CommuniTree

CommuniTree, Nicaragua

Registered as a certified Plan Vivo project in 2010, the CommuniTree Carbon Program uses reforestation to restore ecosystems, improve livelihoods, and reverse climate change. We work with smallholder farmers in Nicaragua to grow trees alongside their existing farming practices. Tree-Nation adds to all trees the same CO2 of Plan Vivo certified projects.
