We believe that rainfall and sub-soil water levels are important for biodiversity conservation. The biodiversity of an area is dependent on rainfall and water levels and recharge in wells are dependent on the surrounding vegetation. In fact, one of the restoration programs of FES has been monitoring wells to find the effect of afforestation and restoration on ground water recharge.
