How to get your tree/ forest in Togo
Have you ever thought about exchanging your CO2 emissions for
trees? You would like to offset one ton of CO2e?
We plant 4 trees for you in Togo!
Does your company emit 2,400 tons of CO2 per year?
How many trees would actually have to be planted in Togo for that?
9,600 trees!
Over what period of time do these newly planted 9,600 trees actually bind these 2,400 tons?
In our CO2 model, we explain in detail how we calculate the CO2 sequestration of the trees,
of the trees that are planted in Togo.
Do you have questions about the study? We look forward to hearing from you!
