Earthwatch Europe is an environmental charity with science at its heart. We drive the change needed to live within our means and in balance with nature. We do this by connecting people with the natural world, monitoring the health of our natural resources and informing the actions that will have the greatest positive impact.
What is a Tiny Forest?
• A Tiny Forest is a dense fast-growing native woodlands, typically made up of 600 trees planted in a
tennis-court sized plot of 200m2.
• Earthwatch has adapted a method of forest management developed in the 1970s by Dr Akira Miyawaki
to encourage accelerated forest development.
• The forests use no chemicals or fertilisers, have low management and maintenance requirements
after two years and provide wide-ranging benefits to people and planet.

参加の方法
時間:
Approx. 3 hours to set up your group; thereafter the Tiny Forest initiatives you decide on can take as long or as short as you like! Earthwatch would work with the community to find the most suitable engagement activity, centred on citizen science. Earthwatch would help organise the event, provide citizen science training and use the data gathered in our annual reports.
