Why Women Collectives Benefit Everyone: Meet The Baobab Collective
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 13 ม.ค. 2019
- Women in Ghana are working together to make a living off trees. When we visited our reforestation project there, we met the Baobab Collective.
The baobab fruit is a superfood that grows on trees. To process it, the women crack open the fruit, grind it into powder, and mix it with flour to make food. When mixed with water, it can be drank as a medicine.
Living in a rural area means that these women depend on trees for food. Now that they have formed a collective, they can prepare enough baobab to sell and save money. This means that their husbands now rely on them to support the household. These women now care for each other through tough times.
Thanks for watching! Oh, and did you know we just launched brand new designs on our online shop? The sales from each t-shirt funds the planting of 20 trees at one of our reforestation sites: ecosia.teemill.com/
Ecosia is the search engine that plants trees. Every month we invest at least 80% of our surplus in tree planting projects all over the world.
Make Ecosia your default search engine to plant trees while you search the web: info.ecosia.org/#install
Ecosia is available for Chrome, Firefox, Safari, IE, and many more.
You can also download Ecosia on your mobile:

Wow. So much to take away from hearing their story. Can we women come together to save & protect our life giving natural resources-earth?
Excellent video you guys should plant some more trees there as well plants and shrubs it looked really Dead in the surrounding area.
For the next new tree planting project why not replant the jungles of Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia that got sprayed with Agent Orange during the Vietnam War?
This made me sooo happy💚💚💚💚💚 Thxxxxxxxxx soooooo much Ecosia you are the best💚💚💚

It's so miraculous that the Baobab tree exists and their community can thrive from it 💚

Finde ich sehr stark von den Frauen
Ecosia ist ne tolle Plattform Wissen viele Leute gar nicht hab es auch nur durch Werbung gesehen
Bravo Ecosia :) il faudrait faire un peu + de pub, notamment sur les reseaux sociaux je pense pour qu'il y ait plus d'utilisateurs. / You should do more publicity, on social networks I think to have more users of Ecosia :p (sorry for my english)
Wow wirklich toll ihr habt euch mehr Aufmerksamkeit verdient 😢💪❤

First

So nice you guys are genuis, and google is shit btw
J’espère que tout cela est vrai ^^
Oui et on devrait dire à plus de gens autour de nous d'utiliser Ecosia comme moteur de recherches. Pour qu'en France, plus de gens soutiennent la cause.
Les français feraient enfin quelque chose d'utile au lieu de casser leur patrimoine.
what language is that?
They are in Ghana, so it's possibly either of Akan or Dagbanli as they are the two most widely spoken native dialects. However, there are others and I can't speak any of them.
Dear Ecosia,
Please 🙏consider bringing back #treehero & #teamtrees with #MrBeast & #PewDiePie
Thank you 🙏

I don't think ecosia will ever become the dominant search engine, sadly. There are over 20 search engines. There is too much competition.
Those large trees are older than ecosia. Where are the newly planted trees and the trees that are 5 years old?
I'd rather see videos of seedlings growing in nurserys, and panoramic film of landscape planted up with 100s and 1000s of saplings. I want to see GREEN GREEN GREEN.
