Curiosity about me
The important moments in your tree's life.
Let's start with introductions
The European silver fir is a majestic, ascending and long-life tree typical of the northern hemisphere forests'. In fact, it can reach 50 meters in height and live up to 600 years. Among the conifers it is one of the species that is best rooted to the ground and is therefore less probable to break or uprooting caused by storms.
Meaning
Nobility
For his majestic elegance this tree is often referred to as the prince of the woods.
How much CO2 I’ll absorb
My estimated CO2 absorption capacity is based on the first 10 years of my life*
Current absorption
- 120 kg
2020
0 kg
2030
-300 kg
* The tree will continue to absorb CO2 even after the tenth year. Therefore this is a prudent estimate.
