About us
Land Art Association is a legally registered forest-planting NGO specialised in green marketing partnerships and CO2 offseting schemes. We offer tailor-made solutions to companies - big and small - that greatly benefit the environment and increase profits at the same time.
We operate under Romanian (EU) jurisdiction. Our forests are being planted in central Romania in order to benefit from the strict, legal protection, peace and stability that is guaranteed by the European Union.
We have also considered other countries on other continents where land and labour to establish our forests were cheaper. But in order to have reasonable assurance that every contribution we receive will have a lasting (close to eternal) impact, we massively tipped the balance in favour of Romania.
Our work
• We pledge to plan, plant, protect and care for 1 m2 forest for each euro that reaches our account.
• As a general rule, we try to mimic the tree composition of the local and regional forests. We use native, long-lived, broad-leaved, tree species such as Oak (Quercus) or Lime (Tilia) to create new forests growing into resilient habitats. Even our smallest plantation has at least two tree species.
• We never plant invasive or alien tree species. We also have a strong preference for multipurpose trees which, besides absorbing tonnes of CO2 and releasing tonnes of oxygen, also serve as bee pastures, food sources and nesting/hiding places for a wide range of wild animals.
• We use degraded, polluted, hard to access and low productivity agricultural land to plant our forests in order to avoid limiting food production on prime agricultural areas.
For other net participants we can offer an expert guidance through trained staff, give an expert opinion, procure expert information and establish new contacts in the field of our work.
