The newest member of the Tierra hotels the Tierra Patagonia is now offering its guest a virtual seed that they may track online as part of the effort to reforest fire ravaged areas of Patagonia.
The eco-minded luxury hotel is the first of its kind to take an initiative in helping out with reforestation efforts. The Tierra Patagonia is located near Lake Sarmiento just under the mountain peaks of Torres del Paine National Park, an area that has seen nearly 41,000 acres burn due to wildfire in the past few years. In the past decade over 7.5 million acres have burned down throughout the region.
The Tierra Patagonia already takes ecologically conscious steps towards the design and organization of the hotel, now they are spreading that eco-conscious approach towards their guests and neighbors.
