Description

Through donations from the Global Giving foundation this project supports coal miners in Bosnia to buy planting material and set up a tree nursery.
Coal is the main energy source in Bosnia but pollutes the air and heats the climate. Coal miners in the country are now starting to plant fast-growing willow trees for biomass for energy, heat and new green jobs. This restores the degraded land and reduces greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution. Last year the miners successfully planted 30,000 trees - in 2022 they want to plant eight times more.
