Dear GNF-Supporters,
It may sound paradoxical at first - wood stoves as forest savers - but our community-based project in Guerrero, Mexico, is a great example of how small measures can have a big and sustainable impact. To find out how this works, check out the travel report by our project manager Thies.
And with that we welcome you to our new newsletter. With a new look, it will now appear in your inbox every two months and will, as before, keep you up to date on our many activities near and far. We welcome feedback, recommendations and, as always, your support.
Enjoy reading,
