World Resources Projects
Working at the intersection of the environment & human needs
The Analog Forestry Initiative focuses on protection of watersheds, revegetation of the riversides, and adaptation activities such as crop diversification with emphasis on permanent crops. In the forest realm, the project designs Analog Forests using a diversity of species (especially those with broader geographical ranges) capable of supplying the environmental needs of the community in the event of climatic changes. It also establishes tree nurseries as spaces for researching the adaptation of species.
