A Toy Plane to Reforest Valleys

IE Rural Hojas Anchas
*Colombia* Year 2014

In 2014, students at IE Rural Hojas Anchas were disturbed by the lack of green cover in their valley. They created a toy plane "Cigabionica" using recycled materials. The plane would fly over the land and drop seeds, as well as be able to document it. After four months, the region regained its green cover.
