Forests are the lungs of our planet. They provide us with the oxygen we need to breathe and they absorb the carbon dioxide that we produce. They are also home to hundreds of species of animals and plants, who are essential to the health and well-being of our ecosystems. Unfortunately, many forests around the world are under threat, and the effects of climate change are exacerbating the situation. That’s why partnerships like the one between Flygreen and One Tree Planted are so important.

One Tree Planted is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to reforestation efforts around the world. They work with local communities, governments, and other organizations to plant trees in areas that have been affected by deforestation, wildfires, and other environmental disasters. They have planted over 92 million trees in over 80 countries, and their efforts are making a real difference.

Flygreen is proud to be partnering with One Tree Planted to help with their forestation initiatives. We are specifically contributing to the reforestation of 3 forests that have been affected by wildfires, in British Columbia, CA and California, USA. These forests are in need of restoration, and the planting of trees will help to ensure that they can continue to provide the essential services that they offer.

The importance of planting trees in these forests cannot be overstated. Trees play a crucial role in mitigating the effects of climate change. They absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, which helps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Trees also help to regulate the water cycle, which is important for the health of our ecosystems. They prevent erosion and provide habitat for countless species of animals and plants. By planting trees in these forests, we are helping to ensure that they can continue to provide these resources and services for generations to come.

Hows does our partnership work? Through our Forest Initiative, One Tree Planted plants trees for every plane chartered with Flygreen. We calculate the number of trees needed to capture the carbon emissions from each trip within approximately 5 years. The trees are planted in forests affected by wildfires that One Tree Planted has committed to restoring.

Partnerships like the one between Flygreen and One Tree Planted are important because they allow us to make a tangible difference in improving the environment. By working together, we can plant more trees, restore more forests, and create a healthier planet for all of us. We encourage other companies and individuals to join us in this effort and to support forestation initiatives around the world. Together, we can make a difference.
