EnglishSustainableBusiness.com News has a piece on Maya Lin’s “What is Missing?” project, which honored Paso Pacifico’s Return to Forest program in Copenhagen:
Maya Lin, the world-renowned artist and designer, revealed a new media piece in Copenhagen on Wednesday on the sidelines of United Nations climate change negotiations.
The video, titled “Unchopping a Tree” is the latest iteration of a larger project, called “What is Missing?,” which Lin said will be her last memorial.
…
The new video addresses deforestation prevention and sustainable reforestation for reducing carbon emissions and protecting endangered species and habitats.
…
The seven organizations being honored tonight prove that REDD is not only doable, but is being done,” Ms. Lin said. “All of us can help to unchop a tree and show that trees are worth more alive than dead. By protecting forests, we help stop species loss and curb cliamte change so in effect, we are ‘saving two birds with one tree.'”
We are grateful to the What is Missing? foundation and hope you will consider supporting our reforestation efforts with a donation.
