Offsetting CO2 emissions generated by the projects and visitors - create a fund and #foodisfree project participation with fruit trees planted on public land. This would have to have a CO2 calculator to give an estimate and then the money from that fund is invested outside of the project into the community.
It would be nice to offset the emissions the project creates by planting trees in the region these can be fruit trees on public land in / near the nearby towns - serves more than 1 purpose we offset the emissions and participate in the #foodisfree project, enhance the local community public spaces - and offer an easy way for our members / visitors to do the same.

We can have signs near the trees explaining the fund & project around it

The fund should be self sustainable with money donated used for:
Trees could be sourced from Finca Verde if we want to plant in the nearby town or part of the farm or from other similar projects near the location of planting. The idea is that we keep transportation to a minimum.
