How we combat climate change
At The Planet Protection Project, we’re actively working to combat climate change with practical steps that make a real difference. Our main approach revolves around planting a significant number of trees in partnership with Eden Reforestation Projects. We understand the vital role trees play in absorbing carbon dioxide and promoting biodiversity. For just fifty pence, anyone can contribute to planting a tree, offering a simple way for individuals and organisations to be part of the solution.
Our tree planting efforts reach various regions, including Madagascar, Mozambique, Kenya, Ethiopia, Nepal, the Philippines, Honduras, and Brazil. Beyond helping the environment, these projects create sustainable jobs, supporting local communities. This dual focus not only fights climate change but also boosts the well-being of remote areas, showing that environmental and social goals can go hand in hand.
We use our profits wisely to maximise our impact. A significant portion goes into researching and developing zero-carbon technologies and methods. By supporting new ideas, we aim to be part of the solution and contribute to the growth of sustainable practices. Additionally, we invest in renewable energy, increasing the use of clean energy sources to further reduce our impact on the environment.
Join us in this important journey towards a greener, healthier planet. Together, we can make a lasting impact in the fight against climate change.
