More trees, less CO2 - For years we have been converting arable land by planting new trees, since 2012 we have planted about 9000 trees including olive and almond trees. Trees help reduce the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2 ) present in the atmosphere, this reduction is positive since the accumulation of CO2 increases the greenhouse effect and the warming of the earth's climate. Furthermore, trees contribute to the prevention of hydrogeological instability by giving more structure to the soil with their roots.
