KKL-JNF plants new forests and is also responsible for managing
large areas of natural woodland and restoring old orchards. Our
forests and woodlands help combat desertification and improve the
carbon balance in the environment. Restored terraces prevent erosion
and support a rich variety of fruit-laden trees in season.
Wildflowers bloom in riotous color among the healthy native trees
and shrubs, part of KKL-JNF's forestry development work. Biosphere
parks, the ultimate integration of humans and their environment, are
becoming a KKL-JNF trademark. KKL-JNF is on guard 24 hours a day,
preventing wildfires in forests and woodlands. Our efficient
firefighting system includes fire watchtowers in strategic points,
the latest firefighting equipment, and dedicated staff. |
