The holidays approach, a time in which we contemplate finding the right gift to give to each of those we love. Often times we find ourselves wondering just what we can give to the child who already has a room full of toys or to a friend whose home is filled with every gadget imaginable. Make this the year in which you give a gift that will preserve existing forests by making a donation to this project in the name of someone you care about.
Remember, forests are the lungs of the Earth; by supporting El Farallon National Monument you will be helping preserve 48 hectares (over 115 acres) of forest. These 48 hectares absorb 720 metric tons of CO2 each year. Give your loved ones the gift of CO2 absorption; offer them the continuation of oxygen production by this tropical forest. By your gift you will make them part of a preservation effort they might one day go visit. If they do, they can say to themselves, “My friend cared so much about me that s/he helped preserve the forests surrounding these ancient and beautiful petroglyphs. That gift has not only brought me here to see these wonders, it has ensured that this forest remains intact helping the Earth to breath.”
