The world’s olive grove protects against CO2

The olive grove has been a well-kept forest for more than 2,000 years. It is a very important part of the solution to climate change and is a good barrier against desertification.

This very special forest of olive trees is a CO2 trap because it takes the CO” from the atmosphere and fixes it in the ground. In the production of one liter of olive oil, olive trees remove 10 kg of CO2 from the atmosphere. Olive oil is good for health and for the environment.
