Growing Forests That Last: A New Approach in Hawaiʻi You Can Support

Join Terraformation on Wednesday, February 25 at 8 AM HST for a free webcast exploring the science, strategy, and sustained commitment behind lasting forest restoration in Hawaiʻi.

Hawaiʻi's native forests evolved over 70 million years in isolation, giving rise to ecosystems found nowhere else on Earth. Today, 90% of native koa forests are gone — lost to invasive species, disease, and climate stress. What remains is under threat, and restoring it requires far more than planting trees.
In this webinar, Terraformation Hawai‘i’s team members Kate Logan, Climate Impact Advisor, and Johannes Seidel, Director of Hawaiʻi Forestry Operations will share why quick-fix tree planting falls short, what genuine ecological restoration demands and how a simple monthly contribution can support the full lifecycle of this work. The conversation will also focus on why Hawaiʻi's forests are biologically irreplaceable, what large-scale native forest restoration actually looks like on the ground, and how individuals anywhere in the world can take meaningful, sustained action.
Forest restoration is measured in decades. This is your chance to understand the work — and join it.
