The Tree Planting Project
For every product sold, 1 tree is planted.
We care about the planet and creating a business that gives back to nature. That’s why we’re proud to share that we’re partnering with One Tree Planted to plant a tree for every item sold.
The partnership is intended to make it easy for customers to participate in global reforestation.
Why trees?
Planting trees is not just one of the best ways to combat the damaging effects of climate change. Learn More
Trees also provide tremendous social impacts by providing jobs to over 1.6 billion people, empowering women in underdeveloped nations, and supporting communities devastated by environmental damage.
Where do we plant?
We plant trees for the reforestation in the Indonesia's rainforest.
Indonesia’s forests are some of the most biodiverse on the planet, home to between 10 - 15 percent of the world’s known plants, mammals, and birds. Despite this, in the last 50 years, more than 74 million hectares of rainforest have been lost here — an area twice the size of Germany.
By far the greatest threat to Indonesia’s forests comes from conversion of land to palm oil plantations - one of the main ingredients in our soaps, detergents, and makeup.
Deforestation is also bad news for carbon emissions.
Peatlands, such as those across Indonesia's lowland rainforests, store a whopping 35 billion tons of carbon.
When bulldozed and replaced with plantations, thousands of tons of harmful carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere, contributing to greenhouse gases and increasing the risk of forest fires.
Who plants the trees?
The trees are planted by local partner organizations and community volunteers.
Who is OneTreePlanted?
One Tree Planted is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit on a mission to make it simple for anyone to help the environment by planting trees.
Their projects span the globe and are done in partnership with local communities and knowledgeable experts to create an impact for nature, people, and wildlife. Reforestation helps to rebuild forests after fires and floods, provide jobs for social impact, and restore biodiversity. Many projects have overlapping objectives, creating a combination of benefits that contribute to the UN's Sustainable Development Goals.
