According to Sustainability Victoria, the average Australian lifestyle produces 15,000kg of carbon per year. Meanwhile, over its lifetime, a tree can collect and store 268kg of carbon. This means, we each need to plant 60 trees per year to take our individual carbon production to neutral. A little tricky for most of us to do in our own backyards. This is where Fifteen Trees comes in. We can plant these 60 trees on your behalf when you join A Subscription for the Planet.

We know Australia is in dire shape; rivers are being mismanaged, huge areas of bushland are being cut down in Queensland, Tasmania is battling to save the Tarkine, while Victorians are battling to establish the Great National Park.
It can be overwhelming to see such devastation. And so, we want to help move you past the feeling of helplessness to one of action and community.
Once planted, find your trees anytime by typing your name into the search box on our Tree Plantings page. Opt out anytime. All trees are native/indigenous and planted in Australia by community groups.
Here’s last year’s report.
Restoring Australian ecosystems. Supporting communities with their revegetation projects for a greener and healthier planet.
Fifteen Trees acknowledges Indigenous Australians as the traditional custodians of the lands on which we work, live and play.
We recognise that Indigenous Australians have cared for and lived in harmony with this land for millennia, and their knowledge and wisdom of the land endures.
We pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging and stand in solidarity as Indigenous Australians seek a fairer and more sustainable future for the land and its people.
