FAZENDA NASCENTE DO LUAR
Thousands of hectares are logged every year in the Cerrado biome in Brazil, causing terrible damage to the environment and its inhabitants. The FNL project recovered 342 hectares of degraded land by planting nearly 430,000 trees in the area, and today the project also protects an area of 1,150 hectares of native forest. In addition, the forest locally brings tangible benefits to the microclimate of the region, contributing to a lower evaporation of water, lower soil reflectivity and lower average annual temperatures.
