The mountains are crying in the Andes.

The name of the glacier on the mountain Puma Huanca is called Sotuq,(sue-tuck) in Quechua it means drip or tear drop, since it looks like two tear drops falling down a face.

In Peru the word "Apu" refers to the powerful spirit of each mountain which is like a god. In every snow capped peak, to smaller hills, there is an Apu. Each Apu is different, with individual characteristics and personalities. From them emerge the life giving waters of springs, lakes and rivers, as well as the forests and creatures that dwell in them.
Eco Valles Civil association of Urubamba Peru hears the Cry of help from the mountain Apu´s . We are making this Pilot re-forestation project to show that seed balls are a simple economical and easy way to re-forest and slow down the effects of Global warming, to slow down the rapid melting of our majestic glaciers. Working with many local and international enthusiastic collaborators; Local Quechua farming communities, Irrigation association, local high school students, local Urubamba municipality authorities, privet business, and concerned Tourist business.
Our plan is in two phases.
“Phase One” is our pilot re-forestation project. Mobilizing our collaborators to all pull together to make a great success. Local Urubamba high school students will be making the seed balls at our Eco Valles Association meeting center in Urubamba. The farming communities and irrigation association members dressed in very colorful authentic traditional high Andean dress, will be broadcasting the seed balls on the upper sides of the mountain Puma Huanca. This event will be a very colorful visual presentation to the world media channels. The event will include traditional dances performed by local schools as well as Andean music when the seed balls are being broadcasted. Here we will announce to the world press and media, a to call for help in the way of funding for our “Phase Two”.
Phase two is to incorporate the seed balls in a large scale re-forestation crusade in the Andes. Using the same method as successfully used in Greece, Japan and New Zealand; broadcasting seed balls "Nendo Dango" from cargo aircraft over thousands of Hectors of the high Andes to re forest as much area as possable.
