How many trees does it take to make a difference?
Food for TreesTM is structured so that every dollar
is maximised to result in trees in the ground.
Most businesses with around ten employees have a carbon
footprint of about 70 tons per year. It takes in the order of four
trees to retain one ton of carbon. So, 350 new trees
planted each year would capture the annual
carbon emissions of the average medium-sized business.
This information is provided as a guide. Food for Trees is
voluntary, and members choose how many trees they will commit to
planting each year.
