Climate Calls tree pledge

Each tree planted will offset your environmental impact by ‘breathing’ in CO2 emissions over its lifetime. It’s estimated that the average person needs to save about 7,000kg of CO2 per year. The trees also provide sustainable habitat for wildlife and will enhance the natural landscape with native broad-leaved trees.

Trees, like all plants, sequester (absorb and store) atmospheric carbon as part of the process of photosynthesis, which enables them to grow. Through this process, carbon dioxide is converted into stored carbon, and this is why trees are sometimes referred to as ‘carbon sinks’. By taking this carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, trees clean the air, reduce temperatures, and counteract our polluting lifestyles

Trees are the longest lived organisms on our planet and they lock up approximately 730kg of carbon over a one hundred year period. By planting trees, we can make a real contribution to the environment and take a positive step towards offsetting your company’s carbon footprint.
