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
This package assumes that an average yearly Co2 produced by surfing the net is similar in all developed countries. For the basis, we will take Belgian research on Energuide.be that states that emissions are 15.36 kg of CO2 per year. The average Co2 by surfing the net is calculated for all inhabitants and not only adults, so for this calculation, we will also use an average human lifespan of 73 years.
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.
15.36 kg of Co2 x 73 years = 1121 kg of Co2
1121 kg of Co2 / 300 kg offset per tree = 3,73 trees
To keep it simple, we round it to 4 trees.
