  1. MISSION: PLANT 5 BILLION TREES

Importance of forestation

Tosi is more than a blockchain - it's mission is to make a crucial positive impact to the most pressing issue of our lifetime, climate change, by planting five billion trees.

Deforestation is responsible for 11% of world's greenhouse gas emissions. Even more importantly, forests are the lungs of the planet: without forests, humans won’t survive. At the current deforestation rate, our forests will disappear in 100–200 years.

Investing in forestry projects to reverse the damage of deforestation offers a scalable and inexpensive climate change solution. A study by researchers at Yale and Harvard found that the cost of reducing CO2 through forestry is $1 to $10 per ton, dramatically less than most other climate solutions. Tosi is committed to be part of this solution.
