International Declaration against Climate Change and Poverty

We all know that human activity is contributing to an almost irreversible change in the world’s climate.

Human activities are responsible for the changes that are already affecting us and will continue to do so in the future.

Those of us who sign this Declaration want to achieve realistic targets in the fight against Climate Change.

We are working to ensure that future generations will enjoy a habitable and sustainable Planet. Our Objectives are:

Objectives :

1º/ Every company, public institution and individual is aware of their Carbon Footprint, the quantity of greenhouse-effect emissions released into the atmosphere.

2º/ Every carbon footprint is offset by planting trees. All donations for planting these trees will be accredited with a Treeplus Eco-certificate.

3º/ Public representatives establish the “Earth Reafforestation” Collaboration Agreements to support the development of the International Programme against Climate Change and Poverty.

NOTE: These woodlands, as part of our Social Commitment Programme, will create the Global Network of Sustainable Agroforestry Cooperatives, which, in turn, will help to reduce Poverty and Emigration.

Treeplus

The "REAFFORESTATION OF THE EARTH" campaign forms part of the International Programme against Climate Change and Poverty, carried out as social commitment by the ININEC, in collaboration with Forests of the Earth Foundation.

Treeplus is the new financial tool for achieving this reafforestation.

Treeplus is the first global Eco-certificate to offset carbon footprints by planting trees.

Treeplus’s philosophy is not based on the idea of “the polluter pays” (OECD, 1972), but:
"WHO OFFSETS EMISSIONS, WINS".

WHO OFFSETS EMISSIONS, WINS

Any company, public institution or individual can find out their carbon footprint. Once the quantity of carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere has been calculated, the necessary Treeplus donations can be acquired for planting the corresponding number of trees.

The economic resources obtained through Treeplus are devoted to reafforestation, the creation of sustainable agro-forestry cooperatives and social commitment.
