Global warming and the environment has become a very serious issue in the last few years. Ten years ago, most people didn’t think much of global warming. Throughout the 21st century there has been undeniable evidence that global warming is a serious problem. If you’re one of those people that look at snowstorms lately and feel that proves global warming is not a concern, then you really need to educate yourself a little more. Global warming isn’t about short term weather, but rather long term climate changes throughout several years. If you do some research on average temperatures and climate over the long term, it is obvious that global warming is real (we just had the hottest decade in history, for one). Now of course, whether changes all the time over the short term, but it is the long term trends that are important – and there is undeniable evidence that temperatures over the last few decades have risen. We are seeing see levels rise (due to melting of icebergs) and average temperatures steadily increasing.

So how can you do your part to save the environment? Well, there are a lot of organizations out there that you should join that are dedicated to helping the environment in a variety of ways. One very intriguing environmental organization I stumbled across recently is Silva Tree. This is a company that offers environmental investments. This is a very good solution because you are able to make a very high return on investment, and make a positive impact on the environment at the same time. It is a fantastic idea for people that wish to help out but do not want to donate a ton of money to charity. Silva tree offers a win-win solution – you are able to help the environment, and at the same time make a positive return on your money.

The investments and activities conducted by Silva Tree directly counter global warming. The main two investment programs Silva Tree has been involved in are the Princess Project (already sold out) and the timber investment project. The Princess Project sold out many months ago due to the huge interest it received while it was available. Rainforests take in CO2 and therefore reduce the effects of global warming, which is why environmental organizations often focus on planting trees. The timber investment project offered by Silva Tree is particularly interesting. The investor takes ownership of a large plot of land with 660 trees per hectare, and is able to harvest and sell timber on their land.

In order to invest in Silva Tree’s programs you will need to be pretty serious. The timber investment from Silva Tree has an introductory price of 32,500 USD. If you have that amount of money sitting in long term interest accounts or even the stock market, then you are likely to get a much higher yearly return with the numerous investments that Silva Tree provides. When you participate in Silva Tree’s investment programs you need to know that they are a trustworthy organization. Silva Tree has an A+ rating on the Better Business Bureau and has many very satisfied investors.

There are many people that work at Silva Tree who work to make it a success. The main three directors of Silva Tree are Patrick Visser, Keren Katz and Maurice Sjerps, although there are also many others that are involved.
