At this perilous time, you must be very concerned about the global situation that affects our lives visibly and invisibly. I have been searching for an effective way of working together with friends in different parts of the world to respond to the crisis of climate change. Please take a look at this new campaign to plant trees to restore the Amazon Rainforest at www.inochi-trees.org.

Friends in Brazil searched for a
transparent and reputable organization that
had been successfully working with indigenous
people. You can find the one we have chosen at www.Amazon Reforest Alliance (ARA). ARA and Inochi, a nonprofit
organization based in Berkeley, California, of
which I am the president, have formed a
partnership to carry out the Inochi Amazon
Rainforest Project. A representative of ARA
along with two other Brazilian friends spent a
week in March 2022 visiting two indigenous
communities that plant seeds and seedlings,
and also consulting with people in another
tribe. Photos from the trip are on our
website.
I believe this is a viable and worthy
project. Would you consider joining us by
being a benefactor and encouraging others to
work together with us?
Here is the alarming background, which you are well aware of: Melting ice at
the poles, rising sea levels, rising
temperatures, less clouds, less rain, larger
and hotter forest fires, more pollution,
spices?? are disappearing, less bees, less
crops, exploding population, possible
starvation for millions, pandemics, wars,
threat of nuclear war. The earth is facing
devastation. Humans are facing extinction.
Many individuals and organizations are
working hard, conserving energy, recycling,
and taking other actions. But each of us needs
to do more. A single project cannot turn the
tide. But if we develop a good prototype,
others can replicate the project or initiate
other projects with the same principle.
Personal commitment, collaboration, and
networking are the only ways to respond to the
crisis we are facing.
I look forward to working with you!
Love, Kaz
