Curiosity about me
The important moments in your tree's life.
Let's start with introductions

Meaning
Sea
It is a tree which flourishes in the maquis shrubland, close to the sea. An enviable choice!
How much CO2 I’ll absorb
My estimated CO2 absorption capacity is based on the first 10 years of my life*

* The tree will continue to absorb CO2 even after the tenth year. Therefore this is a prudent estimate.
