With the new year, our company has taken a step forward. A step toward a brighter future and better coexistence between humans and nature. Namely, we have become the first CO2-independent craftsmen in Slovenia, which means that we have embarked on a path that is friendly to the environment and, above all, to forests.
The answer to the first question is very simple. Over the years of work, we have seen how much wood is used in the wood industry. And the number is shocking. In addition, the use of machines, cars, and other everyday things releases an enormous amount of CO2 into the air. We will be hearing about the consequences of this for many years to come and, if we do nothing, our children will inherit a destroyed Earth. That is why we started planting TREES.
That's right! We found partners who plant trees in endangered areas all over the world, in an amount that fully compensates for our company's CO2 emissions. We included the wood we use for our own production, the CO2 emissions from company cars, the CO2 emissions from consumed electricity, the CO2 emissions of the average working citizen, etc. This means that every product we make is truly environmentally friendly, because whatever we take from nature for a wooden house, pergola, or facade, we also give back to it in equal measure.
But our project did not end there. We wanted something more. And so was born TREECELET. a global tree-planting project. With the motto YOU WEAR, WE PLANT we took our local idea of CO2 neutrality to the world. The best part is that absolutely anyone can support us. All they have to do is visit treecelet.com where they can buy a fashionable bracelet, and in return we plant 5 trees.
Our goal is to plant 1 million trees in the first year. With this, we want to help nature, which gives us everything, while we do not respect it. With TREECELET, together we can make a change for a better tomorrow, not only for us but for all the generations coming after us.
