10 000 Trees

10 000 Trees Strategy
A Practical Strategy for Climate Change

1 TON CO2 / 10.000 TREES PROJECT
Permaculture
Climate Change
Carbon sink
More 10,000 TREES / person / lifetime
Less 1 TON CO2 / person / year
Failing U.N. Climate Conference process
Parallel activist/grassroots conference Klimaforum
The Permaculture network

2 Aspects
Planetary Permaforestry
10 000 Trees per person
Global re-afforestation project
Perennial polyculture
Agroecology
Food sovereignty
Ecological agriculture
Global Energy Descent
1 ton C02 quota per person per year
100 Euro Carbon tax after 1 st ton
100 Euro tax pays for planetary permaforestry

Project Overview
1 TON CO2 10.000 TREES PROJECT overview of the problem and the solution

Permaculture
Permaculture - the idea, practice and global and local success
Ethics: Earth Care, People Care, Fair Share
Perennial Polyculture i.e. food forests, ecological argriculture, organic
"On one level, permaculture deals with plants, animals, buildings, infrastructures (water, energy, communications). However, permaculture is not about these elements themselves, but rather about the relationships we can create between them by the way we place them in the landscape."
– founder Bill Mollison, 1991.Introduction to Permaculture” (p. 1).

Climate Change
Climate Change - the massive catastrophic problem

Carbon sink
Carbon sink - a new category for locking, permanently ecology as carbon sinks in forest and soil
New global land-use category is Carbon Sink

More than 10,000 TREES per. person per. lifetime
More than 10,000 TREES per. person per. lifetime - a requirement for local-global perennial polycultural replanting

Less than 1 TON CO2 pr. person pr. year
Less than 1 TON CO2 pr. person pr. year - global energy descent and emissions reductions targets
1 tonne per lifeyear (per person) quota of carbon emissions, after which a carbon tax
carbon tax of 100 euro per tonne
all companies and international transport pay 100 euro per tonne
carbon markets & carbon trading are stopped

U.N. Climate Conference 2009
The U.N. Climate Conference 2009 / COP 15- the failure of the official process, danger of carbon finance

Klimaforum09
Parallel activist and grassroots Conference - Klimaforum as user-centered permaculture design

Permaculture network
The Permaculture network - massively expanding a global, democratic, locally-controlled permaculture network

100 Euro / Ton Carbon Tax
carbon tax of 100 Euro per tonne
all companies and international transport pay 100 euro per tonne i.e. no quota
carbon markets & carbon trading are stopped
carbon tax spent on perennial polyculture (permaculture) style forestry programs

Permaforestry
carbon tax spent on perennial polyculture (permaculture) style forestry programs
perennial polyculture and soil become carbon sinks
local permaculture groups implement 10 000 trees program, expanding existing permaculture institutes from a few hundred into the 10s of thousands
if 5000-7000 trees can be planted per person in the next 25 years we can stablise extreme climate change

Soil & Tree Carbon Sinks
best means to take c02 (GHG) from the atomosphere is not technical means, it is trees
Most carbon is sequestered (trapped) in soil, partly in trees
