Let's Act Now

Climate Action

CarbonTrees is actively engaged in climate change solutions and global biodiversity enhancement.

NATURE BASED

Action Now

The solutions to climate change are in our nature, in our forests, and in our water.

We focus 100% of our efforts on results based, natural solutions that activate nature.

WATER

Our planet is in a state of emergency. We believe in taking action over raising awareness.

Climate change is RIGHT NOW, and we need immediate climate action. BY PLANTING TREES, YOU ARE ACTING RIGHT NOW.

Plant Trees Now

Plants & Soils

Nature Based Solutions

CarbonTrees plants native trees, shrubs, and grasses that capture carbon dioxide and other harmful greenhouse gasses, while enhancing biodiversity and protecting wildlife.

We plant natural forests.
We DO NOT plant tree farms or monocultures.
We restore and regenerate forests with our reforestation and afforestation projects.
We DO NOT plant foreign or invasive species.
We give each of our tree seedlings the growing space needed to thrive
We DO NOT plant as many trees as we can, as close to each other as possible.
We plant seedlings using evidence based scientific knowledge.
We DO NOT just plant seeds.
We restore and regenerate forests with our reforestation and afforestation projects.
We DO NOT plant foreign or invasive species.
We plant trees at the right time. Typically, in the spring and early fall when the trees roots are actively growing.
We DO NOT plant without a science-based silvicultural prescription for each site.
We monitor our forests.
We DO NOT just plant and walk away.
We respect our forests' natural ecosystems and value the growth of natural fungi and micro-organisms.
We DO NOT use toxic fertilizers.
We enable all of our forests’ animals, plants and fungi to live as they naturally do.
We DO NOT allow any hunting or harvesting on our properties.

GIVE BACK

Benchmarking
& Equivalents

Tree planting “equivalents” are often used as a benchmark for quantifying carbon offsets or renewable energy benefits. We very often hear the phrase “This is the equivalent of planting X thousands of trees…”. Only planting a tree “is like” planting a tree!

Reducing our footprint is great, but reversing it is better! We need to give back some of what we’ve taken and engage in natural climate change solutions.

Only
Planting a Tree
Is Like
Planting a Tree

Trees and plants sequester greenhouse gases while providing a wide array of ecosystem services that most carbon offsets don’t.

Trees stabilize our climate while producing oxygen and cleaning our waterways.

Trees provide food and shelter for animals, insects, fungi and organisms all crucial to a healthy planet and the cycle of life.

By planting with CarbonTrees, you not only reduce your carbon footprint, but you can actually reverse it.

Activate Nature

Results Based

Tree planting and good forest management are proven and effective climate change solutions.

Science agrees that healthy forests fight climate change. Animals, insects and organisms return to and replenish in reforested lands.

By planting trees you...

Balance out your environmental footprint and give the planet back, some of what you’ve taken.

Provide food and shelter for millions of animals, insects, organisms and fungi.

Enhance and promote biodiversity and clean our waterways.

Activate nature and your impact continues to grow year after year!

Silvaculture

Forest
Management

Planting trees alone is not enough!

Forest management begins with silviculture which is the growing and cultivation of trees into healthy, diverse and resilient forests.

The first step to any reforestation or afforestation project is developing a scientific, evidenced-based silviculture plan. Having certified forest management experts manage a young forest is critically essential to its’ success.

management

01

We don’t just plant seeds, we prepare the site and plant seedlings that are old enough to withstand the effects of a changing climate.

02

We plant trees with the growing space needed to create a healthy and biodiverse forest of trees, plants, fungi and animals.

03

Once established, our forests are managed to be dynamic and resilient in a changing climate while developing into mature old-growth forests.

Active forest management is as important as planting and CarbonTrees actively manages every forest we plant.

Positivity

Giving Back

As human beings, all we do every day is take from the planet. It's time to start giving back.

Whether it’s the food we eat, the clothes we wear or our housing and transportation; We consume the planet on a daily basis. We literally consume trees every day.

If we don’t act now, it will only be a matter of time before the planet has nothing left to give us. Reducing our footprint is not enough, we need to give back. CarbonTrees offers a real, natural and effective climate change solution that gives back to your planet!

We can't solve our problems using the same thinking we used when we created them.
