Tree planting benefits

Tree planting is easily recognised by consumers as a positive eco-action.

Trees use energy from the sun to fuel photosynthesis. Photosynthesis converts water and C02 absorbed from the atmosphere into carbohydrates that are used by the tree for nutrients. The by-product of photosynthesis is oxygen, which is released by trees into the atmosphere. So by absorbing CO2, trees rid the environment of an excess pollutant and in return, they give us oxygen to breathe.

A single tree can absorb a tonne of CO2 over its lifetime

Tree planting in the UK

Here in the UK only 12% of our land is wooded, compared with an average of 32% in each European country. It’s essential we retain wooded areas to help reduce pollution, generate oxygen, maintain wildlife habitats and improve quality of life.

Tree Planting and Additionality

The important factors when considering any tree planting project are, additionality - would the trees you pay for have been planted anyway? And Sustainability-once planted are the trees going to be looked after and survive long enough to deliver their benefit?

The Carbon Managers manage their own plantations here in the UK

Planting Trees as Carbon Offsets

The Carbon Managers advocate tree planting as a carbon offset solution for reducing CO2 in the Atmosphere, with caution. Trees store CO2 during their long life. Allowed to die off naturally, the tree will decompose and release methane back into the atmosphere. However the act of tree planting is extremely positive as a starter for individuals becoming generally aware of the climate change issue. Tree planting is also extremely beneficial to the local environment, raising the bio-diversity index and providing habitats for many different species.
