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. The partnership is designed to be simple for customers to get involved in global reforestation. For every roll of material sold from HUESKER Australia’s inventory, the company will donate $1 to One Tree Planted to plant one tree.
