Why plant trees?
Planting trees is not just about offsetting carbon emissions. Yes, trees help clean the air we breathe, but that’s not all. Trees also filter the water we drink, reduce the risks of soil erosion, protect groundwater supplies, create shade and shelter for crops and livestock, and provide habitat to over 80% of the world’s terrestrial biodiversity.

THE MATH
Based on the Livemint article, an hour of watching Netflix produces 3.2 kg of Co2. Based on the Dailymail article average view time on Netflix in 2020 was 3.2 hours per day per user.
The most common tree species that we plant are Pines Patula, Griveria Robusta, Croton Microstrachas, Rauvolfia Caffra, Albizia Schimperiana, and Markhamea Lutea. On average these Tree species offset 300kg of Co2 in their lifetime. Lifetime CO2 offset represents the total estimated amount of CO2 the tree will accumulate throughout its lifetime. To keep a simple estimation model, this period corresponds to the most significant years of the tree’s volume growth.
3.2 kg of Co2 per hour x 3.2h x 365 days = 3737.6 kg of Co2 per year.
3737,6 kg of Co2 emmisions / 300 kg offset per tree = 12,458 trees
To keep it simple, we round it to 12 trees.
