Photographer & Wife plant 4 mil trees



Famous photographer Sebastião Salgado and his wife Lélia Deluiz Wanick Salgado founded a small organization, called Instituto Terra, that helped bring the forest back to life by planting 4 million tree saplings. During the time it took for the forest to regrow, 172 bird species, 33 species of mammals, 293 species of plants and 15 species of reptiles have returned there.


You can learn more about the project in the documentary about Sebastião's life, titled The Salt of the Earth.
