THEIR PLANET: One Tree Planted
Since conception, we have made it our mission to always keep sustainability at the forefront of all of our business decisions. We have teamed up with One Tree Planted to give One for One. For every Their product we sell, we will be planting one tree around the world. ‘Together we can restore forests, create habitat for biodiversity, and make a positive impact around the world’ (onetreeplanted.org). Since 2014, One Tree Planted has planted over 40 million trees in more than 43 countries across the globe.
Why Trees?
‘Trees help clean the air we breathe, filter the water we drink, and provide habitat to over 80% of the world's terrestrial biodiversity. Forests provide jobs to over 1.6 billion people, absorb harmful carbon from the atmosphere, and are the key ingredients in 25% of all medicines’ (onetreeplanted.org).
What Is The Process?
One Tree Planted partners with carefully selected reforestation organizations in 4 regions around the world: North America, Latin America, Asia and Africa. Once the donation is submitted, One Tree Planted pools the donations for each project and sends the funds to their reforestation partner. That partner then grow the tree saplings, and plant the saplings in the ground in the rainy season. The rainy season is chosen since this is the time the soil provides optimum conditions for tree survival.
Together, we can help make a difference.
