Curiosity about me

The important moments in your tree's life.

Let's start with introductions

Avocado leaves have excellent anti-scarring properties as well. Avocado is planted for fruit cultivation and the shade that it provides for other crops.

How much CO2 I’ll absorb

My estimated CO2 absorption capacity is based on the first 10 years of my life*

Current absorption

2019

0 kg

2029

-500 kg

* The tree will continue to absorb CO2 even after the tenth year. Therefore this is a prudent estimate.
