⍋  1-0.07mt of CO₂ 

It's nearly impossible to participate in society without a smartphone these days. The best thing you can do is keep your current phone for as long as you can. Then, when you really need a new phone, offset its emissions by planting with us.

            

THE MATH

A new smartphone creates 70kg of CO2 (0.07mt). 1 tree is required to sequester the 0.07 metric tons of CO2 emitted in the creation process of your new smartphone by 2030.

THE SCIENCE

One mangrove tree sequesters ~679.7 pounds or ~0.31 metric tons over its 25 year growth period. We believe that carbon neutrality by 2030 is the ambitious goal we should all be striving toward. That’s why we’re using a seven year time period to calculate how many verified trees are needed to sequester the carbon emitted from different actions. In seven years, one mangrove can absorb 189.7 pounds or 0.09 metric tons of carbon. 

After those initial seven years all of the carbon you emitted will be sequestered. Over the next 18 years the verified trees you planted will continue to absorb and store carbon.

HOW WE VERIFY YOUR TREES ARE PLANTED!

Planters on the ground use verification technology to monitor and track the time of planting as well as the geo-coordinates of every tree planted. Utilizing blockchain technology, this information is uploaded to a database so that we can ensure all of your trees are planted and monitor real climate impact and survivability over time.
