BrandCo. Partners with One Tree Planted
With climate change at our doorsteps, we can no longer ignore signs that our planet is suffering from our activities. Human activity has been releasing an increasing amount of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, causing ambient temperatures to rise, affecting weather patterns, leading to climate change. How do we reduce carbon dioxide already in the atmosphere? We need more trees to absorb carbon dioxide, prevent soil erosion, and release oxygen into the air.
As a company that uses paper as a material for one of our major services, we at BrandCo. are painfully aware of our carbon footprint, considering the amount of paper that we use to sustain our business. Paper is a resource that we primarily harvest from trees, and we’d like to give back to Mother Earth for this wonderful resource that we continue to benefit from.
Here at BrandCo., we have decided to reduce our carbon footprint by partnering with One Tree Planted, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that manages reforestation efforts on a global scale. They have made it easy for everyone to pitch in by creating a system that plants and takes care of one tree for every donated dollar. One Tree Planted planted more than 10 million trees across the globe in 2020.
One Tree Planted has created a system that ensures each tree sapling planted grows to become a mature tree. They have partners on the ground who select the right tree species for the area and manage the reforestation effort – from site preparation, sapling nursery supervision, tree planting, to tree maintenance and monitoring.
At check out, there’s a button to donate a dollar or more to help One Tree Planted. BrandCo. will match each donated dollar, making sure that more than one tree is planted for every donation made to One Tree Planted.
Remember – one dollar will go a long way to reforest the planet, minimize climate change, and guarantee breathable air for generations to come.
