The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago, and the second best is now! We’d like to add that one tree is not enough – plant a whole forest! 🌳 🌳 🌳 Our mission is to give individuals an opportunity to gradually build a tangible, positive environmental impact by joining forest restoration at scale, and to make it as easy and convenient as possible while addressing downsides of existing solutions. We are not “just another tree planting initiative” Researching the topic of tree planting and carbon offsets, we’ve encountered various issues with many initiatives, such as: ❌ Not showing how many trees are needed to offset carbon footprint, which creates a false sense of doing enough and discourage further action, which can do more harm than good. ❌ Not including trees’ survivability rates and projecting CO2 recapture rates of adult trees to all seedlings, or even not reporting on individuals’ impact at all. ❌ Reforesting industrial plantations as part of their production cycle, which do not add additional forest cover or increase biodiversity. That’s why we are developing our project to: 🌳 Show how many trees are really needed to offset carbon footprint in each country. 🌳 Include trees’ survivability, averaging CO2 recapture rates through the whole lifecycle, which prevents impact overestimation and allows to report progress in a real-time manner. 🌳 Aim to make a true land cover change and create new diverse forests and woodlands with mostly ecological functions, using only native species, to make the most of local conditions. With just a few clicks you can choose your planting plan, gradually planting a whole forest and making a tangible impact. We handle the rest with our local partners, planting trees in your name, and reporting on your positive impact 📈 Several municipalities have already expressed interest in partnering with us, pledging the land for over 10 million trees with the potential for much more! Now we need more contributors to complete our first planting batch and jumpstart field operations.
