Wollemi Nursery is one small step to Target Humanities Ecological footprint


The Fibernacci Wollemi Pine Grove Landscaping and Nursery targets the bio-sequestration of carbon emissions. The planting of three thousand trees/shrubs/plants will sink 500 cu metres of CO2 emissions over 10 years. In 30 years this would wipe out our families past carbon footprint on planet earth making for a carbon neutral sojourn - a simply logical aspect to creating a 'Renewable Energy Island on Land Sea and in Space'.
