Silva Tree Out To Help The Environment
There have always been good organizations out there that are dedicated to a particular cause. Where there is a serious issue going on, or something needs to be improved, an organization is formed to help address the issue if enough people feel the same way. There are examples of this all over the world. Take Greenpeace, for example, or Silva Tree. Silva Tree is an excellent organization that I came across a few weeks ago – they offer a number of investments related to the environment that are extremely beneficial. Their investments are fantastic for people that have an environmental conscience, and are thinking about investments that offer steady annual returns.
One of Silva Tree’s most successful offers yet is the so called ‘Princess Project’. This has been open since September 2009, and is a sustainable timber plantation that has an ROI of over 15% per annum. This is very impressive for an investment of this type. Not only does the Princess Project offer steady returns, but it gives a lot of benefits to surrounding communities and the environment. Another thing going for it is that returns are paid every 5 years (unlike every 20+ years as in some other investments).
It is easy to apply for the Princess Project, and if you are interested, it is better to do it sooner rather than later. Silva Tree helps out all kinds of people, and there are many causes they are dedicated to; and when you invest with them you will be doing a lot of good not just for yourself. An example of Silva Tree helping out local communities would be their efforts to repair the Escuela Cano Zapota. They also work with local governments in all of their projects.
Another really good investment offered by Silva Tree was the Carbon Offset Forestry Project. Unfortunately this sold out in July 2009, so you won’t be able to take part in it now, but it did very while it was offered. This investment basically worked by buying large areas of rainforest from private sellers, in order to conserve and protect it. When I heard about this, it reminded me of when I took a Qantas flight a couple months ago and there was an option to plant a tree for $3 or so when booking, in order to contribute to offsetting the emissions of the plane flight. Rainforests and trees absorb CO2, which helps to offset global warming – but they also have an additional benefit of providing habitat.
On top of their Princess and Carbon Offset Forestry Projects, there are a number of other worthwhile and upcoming investments that Silva Tree offers. An investment of Silva Tree’s that really got me interested was their Bio-Fuel project. It is anticipated that bio-fuel will be useful for all kinds of things, and research is being conducting on it all the time. It has been proven already that bio-fuel has the ability to do things like create electricity.
Silva Tree has been able to become a success mainly because they have some very good directors on board. There are 3 main directors that oversee the development of Silva Tree, which includes Keren Katz, Patrick Visser and Maurice Sjerps. The most important thing in an organization dedicated to some kind of worthy cause is that everyone there believes in what they are doing.
