Biodiversity in the fight against and adaptation to climate change

MYBLUEPLANET is enhancing Swiss forest resilience to climate change by planting diverse tree species. Contribute to our corporate volunteering event to help preserve biodiversity and ensure a healthy environment for future generations.

Facts

Climate change offers new opportunities for certain tree species, but others need more protection and support. Since the effects are already noticeable for us humans, it is still difficult to say which plant, animal and fungal species will become rarer or more common in the future. What is certain is that biodiversity and mixed forests are more resilient to changing climate conditions. They are more animated and home to significantly more species.
Together with our network of foresters, MYBLUEPLANET is making Swiss forests fit for the future and helping nature to meet the coming challenges of man-made climate change by planting various tree species.

 

How trees and hedges help agriculture

At MYBLUEPLANET, we do not neglect the benefits of hedges. They are real natural barriers that reduce soil erosion and improve soil fertility. They also provide important habitats for a wide variety of wildlife, including birds, insects and small mammals, thus promoting biodiversity. Like trees, they help to sequester carbon in the soil and thus contribute to mitigating climate change. For all these and many other reasons, we at MYBLUEPLANET would like to participate in hedge planting in agricultural areas. Join us on this mission!

More than hiking, singing and camping – The Scouts & MYBLUEPLANET ensure biodiversity

Caring for nature is a shared goal of Scouts and MYBLUEPLANET. Through the MyBlueTree@Scouts initiative, Scouts are invited to plant as many trees as possible, aiming for a greener planet by year’s end.
Interested in joining? You can find more information here.

Since June 1, 2024, 71 trees have been ordered (as of September 25, 2024). Can we reach our goal of 500 trees?
