Planting trees is the most effective climate change solution available to the world right now. The ability of trees to soak up carbon dioxide has long made them a valuable weapon in the fight against rising temperatures.
In one year a mature tree absorbs more than 48 pounds (22kg) of CO2 from the atmosphere and release oxygen in exchange.
On average, one tree produces nearly 260 pounds (180kg) of oxygen each year.
A human breathes 740kg of O2 in a year, so one mature tree can provide enough oxygen for a family of four.
It’s important to focus not just on how many trees can be grown, but where they could be planted. GREEN TREES supports reforestation projects through our global partner Ecologi, as it allows to maximize the positive impact on carbon emissions.
We are transparent: you can always see the impact the GREEN TREES community makes on the planet.
