Trees for Travel!

Cutting back on air travel is an important step we can take to reduce our climate impact. But if you have to fly, why not spend a few extra bucks to reverse your emissions?

 

That’s where our Trees for Travel program comes in.

 

These indigenous species are planted by our nonprofit partner, Earthlungs Reforestation Foundation, under contract with the Kenyan Forest Service to help restore 5.1 million hectares of degraded land — part of Kenya’s Paris Agreement’s Nationally Determined Commitment (PDF).

 

Your trees are never harvested or traded. They’re planted and protected by local farmers, live out their natural lives, creating lasting forests that clean the air, store carbon, and shelter wildlife. Learn more about our program.

Answer the simple questions below to calculate how many trees you can plant to balance your next flight.

 

How do we figure out how many trees are needed? Check out our spreadsheet calculator here.

In our warming world, newly planted trees are vulnerable to fires, floods, drought, and poaching, especially in the poor countries where we plant our trees. You can help ensure your emissions are fully and permanently sequestered by doubling, tripling, or even quadrupling your purchase.
