Protecting Biodiversity With Reforestation

Join bunq’s reforestation efforts to help protect biodiversity and create a greener planet.

1 mai 2023

The world is facing a biodiversity crisis. The loss of habitats and the destruction of ecosystems is pushing species to the brink of extinction. Reforestation is a crucial tool in the fight against biodiversity loss, and it's never been more important to get involved. In this blog, we'll take a closer look at why reforestation is so important, and what we can do to make a difference.

Why Reforestation Is Key To Biodiversity

Forests are some of the most diverse ecosystems on the planet, providing habitat for countless species of animals and plants. When forests are destroyed, species are lost forever. Reforestation can help to restore this lost habitat and give species a chance to recover.

For example, in Kenya, the planting of indigenous tree species has helped to restore the habitat of the endangered African elephant. In the dry savanna regions of the country, the loss of trees has caused water scarcity and desertification, leading to the decline of elephant populations. But with reforestation, the return of trees has brought new sources of water, making it possible for elephants to thrive once again.

In Madagascar, reforestation is helping to protect the habitat of the lemur, one of the world's most unique and endangered primates. Deforestation in Madagascar has caused the loss of over 90% of the island's original forest cover, putting many species at risk. But by planting new trees, we can help to protect lemur habitats and give this species a chance to recover.

Reforestation also helps to maintain the balance of our ecosystems by providing crucial services like carbon sequestration, water regulation, and soil protection. By planting new trees, we can help to slow down the effects of climate change, which is especially important for species that are already struggling to adapt to a rapidly changing world.

Why You Should Get Involved

Reforestation is an opportunity for each of us to make a tangible difference in the fight against biodiversity loss. By supporting organizations that are dedicated to planting trees, you can help to create new habitats and protect existing ones.

At bunq, we believe in the power of community. That's why we've made it easy for you to support reforestation through the bunq app. Simply join the bunq community today, and you'll be part of a growing movement of people who are making a difference for the planet and its inhabitants.
