- Planting trees is one of the best ways to combat the damaging effects of climate change. Trees help clean the air we breathe, filter the water we drink, and provide habitat to over 80 percent of the world’s terrestrial biodiversity. Trees also provide tremendous social impacts by providing jobs to over 1.6 billion people, empowering women in underdeveloped nations, and supporting communities devastated by environmental damage.
We’re excited for the opportunity to work with SHB on such an impactful project. We admire the company’s commitment to planting five trees for every deal completed. It’s a prime example of how real estate organisations can make positive change for our planet.
Matt Hill, Founder and Chief Environmental Optimist at One Tree Planted
The trees are planted by local partner organisations and community volunteers in areas where there has been deforestation. Find out more about this partnership here.
