Why Plant Trees?

Hello September! Beautiful month right? We say goodbye to the beauty of summer and welcome the autumn season with open arms. This is a month when we set goals to end our year the best way possible, checking our accomplishments till this month and our to-do list. 

This year, Betreat has been all about being eco-friendly, and we want to share this green spirit with all of you. We teamed up with Terrabiom, experts in soil health, and had a blast doing educational experiences. Now, with September here, it's time for tree planting.

Planting trees is an enjoyable group activity. Whether in a large or small group, planting trees is a wonderful way to spend an afternoon connecting with nature. Not only does it offer the opportunity to contribute to the environment, but it also provides a sense of fulfillment and satisfaction in seeing tangible results.

Trees are a precious gift that sustains life on this planet. Yet, we often take it for granted and fail to recognize the vital role it plays in our lives. Deforestation contributes to climate change by releasing carbon dioxide into the atmosphere and reducing the ability of forests to absorb carbon.

Here are some benefits that planting trees provide to the earth; 

• Preserve the Biodiversity
• Filter and retain the water in soil
• Cool down the air temperature in summer 
• Protect from wind, 

And to ourselves:

• We finish the day with a sense of fulfilment 
• Gain knowledge about the ecosystem 
• It’s an original outdoor exercise
• Feel more connected to the team 

To end this first newsletter of Betreat, we want to share this good vibes song that our team loves named: September by Earth, Wind & Fire.
