Always inspired to share this story and one thing is clear..... and it is never too late to deliver change to our planet 🌏

In Brazil, this couple planted 2 million trees in 18 years, returning 172 bird species, 33 mammals, 15 amphibians, 15 reptiles and 293 plant species.
The whole world should know them. This is Lélia Wanick and Sebastião Salgado
The couple decided to start the Terra Institute, a small organization that planted 2 million plants and revived the forest.
"There is only one #technology that can convert CO2 into oxygen, and that is a tree." We need to replant the forests !! "
By using native varieties of plants, the couple rebuilt an entire #ecosystem from scratch and the area flourished significantly, allowing the fauna to return; thanks to their work, Lélia and Sebastião helped save #biodiversity - dozens of endangered species.
" The earth was sad as I was, everything was degraded. Then my wife got a fantastic idea to replant this forest: all the insects, fish and birds returned, and thanks to the new growth of the trees I was born again. "
As Green Planet Initiative 2050 🌳 we are doing our part to accelerate ecosystem restoration working with local communities at the grassroots!
✈️ Share it widely in their honour 🎖 🥇 🙏🏾
