Old Forest News 2021-12-15

From November 1 to today, no less than SEK 1 842 000 influenced to Naturarvet.

That sum could protect 14 hectares of old-growth forest, which could sequester the equivalent of 112 tonnes of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere each year. At the same time, it can protect the habitat of endangered species that call old-growth forests home.

Let the love keep flowing and remember order gift certificate in time if you want us to send out a printout of them. The last day to order in order for us to send the printout by regular mail before Christmas is the 4th of Advent, Sunday 18/12.
