About the project
NET4GAS pursues a responsible policy aimed at protecting nature and the environment with respect to current and future generations. This principle not only underlies the company’s responsible entrepreneurship in gas transmission but is also the basis for its long-term strategy of corporate philanthropy and sponsorship, which has been implemented under the programme NET4GAS Closer to Nature since 2007. NET4GAS has been systematically providing long-term support to projects where a major aspect of sustainable development is expressed by precisely that motto – “Closer to Nature” – and is one of the largest corporate donors in the field of nature conservation in the Czech Republic.

this tall, robust coniferous tree with pyramidal or cylindrical treetop grows up to 65 m. The tree bark is mostly light-grey, darker with age. Needles measure 2 – 3 cm, they are flat, on the upper side shiny dark green, on the underside with two shiny stripes (stomas). European silver fir cones grow erect and reach the size of up to 20 cm. The plant as such is very demanding in terms of humidity and sensitive to late frosts. It is also very sensitive to polluted environment. In the industry its wood is used for water constructions – boats, weirs etc.
