We are delighted to announce that working with The Tree Appeal we have sponsored the planting of 8 trees to help offset the carbon footprint of our 8 UK based servers. The Tree Appeal are a fantastic group that plant trees that are paid for by corporate sponsors in the grounds of schools and nature reserves throughout the country.
We chose to do this as a business as one of the many green initiatives that we will be rolling out as we enter 2019. The simple action of planting a tree has such a beneficial impact on the biodiversity of an area, providing a habitat for lots of animals and securing the woodlands for future generations to enjoy.
The Tree Appeal plant selected broadleaf species like oak, beech and hazel, and use seeds that have been hand collected from the indigenous tree population in your chosen area. Once you have sponsored a tree the recipient of your tree will help with the planting, this is particularly special for schools who use it as a way of teaching their pupils about environmental issues and lets them get their hands dirty in the process!
As well as sponsoring trees to offset our servers, we are also offering our clients the chance to sponsor a tree in their own name and in their chosen location to offset the carbon footprint of their website. If you would like to know more about this, please email us and we would be happy to provide you with all the information you need to sponsor your own tree!
