In a Archangel partnership with The Eden Project in Cornwall, United Kingdom, 300 Champion Trees will be planted in a Super Grove of Champion Coast redwoods and Giant Sequoias.
The Eden Project is a non-profit educational organization that runs transformational social and environmental projects, creates unforgettable learning experiences for students, and does valuable research into plants and conservation. Among many projects, they have created the world’s largest rainforest in captivity, stunning gardens and world-class sculptures. Sir Tim Smit is the founder of the Eden Project.
[pl_blockquote cite=”Sir Tim Smit – Founder, The Eden Project”]Eden sets great store in story telling and I can tell you everybody I have spoken to is moved and excited by this call to action and because the message of hope is associated with parent trees steeped usually in human history-it connects at a level more powerful than the usual recipes for action![/pl_blockquote]
The Super Grove will be planted to form an avenue and a grove. Because of the ultimate size of these trees, the new grove has the potential to capture and safely store several thousand tons of carbon from the atmosphere over its lifetime, and will reduce the impact of global warming.

Hope for the Future: David Milarch stands in the Archangel propagation facility
with trees to be sent to The Eden Project
We live on a 57 acre farm in Ohio that is too hilly to be farmed we have some very old tree on our property including a very large oak tree that has a very large circumference. My husband loves trees and constantly argues with the utility companies who want to mangle the tree. would it be possible to clone out special oak?
Your idea is the appropriate one for the world keep up the good work. I would have one suggestion along with the trees could you look into a method of energy production that uses THORIUM in a reactor for this needed change. TED talk by Kirk Sorenson will explain all, please encourage everyone to check this out. It could be the game changer along with the trees. Respectfully Larry Millar
