How about playing bridge to support the restoration of ecosytems and protection of the environment? 🌳
On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of World Environment Day, we are launching a unique event on Funbridge: The Environment Tournament.

How does the Environment Tournament work?
Tournament Details
The Environment Tournament is held in the form of a Funbridge Points tournament on 17-23 June 2024.
This charity tournament consists of 10 deals scored by MPs.
The entry fee is 16 Diamonds (€1).
16 Diamonds = 1 Tree Planted
During the Environment Tournament, each participation represents one tree planted by Plant-for-the-Planet. 🌳
At the end of this 7-day tournament, we will tally the total number of Diamonds used to participate and convert it into euros. For more details on the conversion, follow this link.
The total amount collected will be donated to the Yucatán Restoration Project led by Plant-for-the-Planet. 💰

Did you know that Mexico is among the countries most affected by deforestation?
One of the regions in Mexico most affected is the Yucatán Peninsula (Campeche, Quintana Roo, Yucatán). According to Plant-for-the-Planet and Global Forest Watch estimates, this region accounted for “42.3% of all forests lost across Mexico” from 2001 to 2020.
Since 2015, Plant-for-the-Planet has been working to restore degraded areas in the Yucatán Peninsula. Since this date, 12,547,980 trees have been planted as part of this initiative.
The project also adopts a holistic approach aimed at protecting ecosystems and ensuring biodiversity. If you want to know more about the project, click here.
