Description:
Did you know that when you cut down a mature tree, you need to plant 3,068 seven-year-old trees to cover its carbon footprint? Did you know that three out of four food crops across the globe depend, at least in part, on pollinators[1]? What value do trees and bees have in technology parks? Trees provide shade, a variety of aromas and a feast for the eyes; and economic benefits – saving on heating and cooling and enhancing staff productivity. We work with trees and bees in our park. We started by rescuing mature trees and setting up two bee colonies, and are currently planning to develop three sites with 2-3 bee colonies each, as well as an educational trail for children. Our goal is to maximize the capacity of the trees and nature in our technology park to combat climate change, all based on the latest scientific findings and modern technologies.
