  1 -0.02mt of CO₂

One of the best things about the sport of golf is getting outside in nature. Get out on the course without feeling green guilt by planting a tree every time you tee off. 

            

THE MATH

We used this calculator to estimate the emissions from a round of golf, based on driving a car with 30MPG for 20 miles. The calculator estimated 0.02mt would be produced from this round of golf. 1 tree is required to sequester these emissions 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.
