Planting to Offset Carbon
What is Carbon Offsetting?  What we do everyday, eg: heating homes and offices, driving vehicles, air travel, all consume energy and produce carbon dioxide emissions.  Planting trees is one way to help offset your carbon footprint as they absorb carbon dioxide to produce oxygen.

Here's how you can contribute to tree planting and benefit the environment by improving carbon absorption, reducing you carbon footprint and offsetting your carbon usage.

As an individual:

  • Plant on your own land for yourself - and improve your dependant’s future and their environment.

  • Sponsor tree plantings, new forests or woodlands, whether commercial or landscape - put your name on Forests for the Future and offset your Carbon Usage.

  • Give Trees as Green Gifts – to celebrate anniversaries, birthdays or family events.

  • Dedicate a tree to a loved one.

As a business:

  • Sponsor or organise plantings – and reduce your Carbon Footprint.

  • Give Trees as Green Gifts for Green Promotions - and give your company Positive Publicity.

  • Demonstrate your environmental awareness – supply small trees to customers, suppliers or employees.

Carbon Offsetting - food for thought!
In it’s lifetime a large tree – an Oak, Ash or Beech for example - will absorb in the region of 0.75 tons of carbon
.
A hectare of Broadleaved woodland will absorb in the region of 450 tons of carbon in it’s lifetime.
