A Tree At A Time Mission Welcome
Welcome to A Tree at a Time The Earth's forests are in crisis. Rainforests are disappearing at an alarmingly rapidly rate and so are the the plants, flowers and wildlife that enhabitate them.

We've already lost 80 percent of Old Growth forests worldwide, a figure that increases to 95 percent in the United States. According to the United Nations, at least 37.5 million acres of rainforests are lost annually -- an area the size of the state of Georgia.

Despite the relatively small land area they cover, the rainforest is home to about half of the planet’s 5 to 10 million plants and animal species. (source: ran.org)

We urge you to take the time to invest in the future of the planet. Take time to recycle, use earth friendly products, and think of the future.

Working in partnership with the local economies ATAAT strives for a balance between the needs of man and the needs of nature.

"The great French Marshall Lyautey once asked his gardener to plant a tree. The gardener objected that the tree was slow growing and would not reach maturity for 100 years. The Marshall replied, 'In that case, there is no time to lose; plant it this afternoon!'"
John F. Kennedy
