Carbon offsetting at Inglewood Golf Club.

TREES PLANTED

60

When you carbon offset your car or flight with Fifteen Trees,  you get to see exactly where your trees have been planted and you directly support our rural environment and communities.

 

Two golfers planted a tree, to improve the tee.

The Inglewood Golf Club who were the grateful recipient of 40 wattle trees. Another 20 trees were given to the Inglewood Eucy Museum. Would love more trees for our country Golf Club if available. Thank you to those kind souls who have paid for our trees.

The 60 trees planted in central Victoria (northwest of Bendigo) were generously paid for by Peter King of Kings Cars. Peter is carbon offsetting every new Citroen and Mitsubishi ASX that he sells from his Ballarat dealership.

 

Rural golf clubs like Inglewood are in dire need of trees for their courses. I’ve had letters from Heathcote, Neangar and Elmore Golf Clubs all keen to plant but without the funds to do so. Perhaps there are some golfers out there who would like to improve their drive (!!) by carbon offsetting their cars or flights with Fifteen Trees. In return, I will earmark your trees for our rural golf courses.

Cheers  – Colleen

‘Sometimes there are really simple things everyone can do to reduce their carbon footprint. When staying at a hotel, choosing to skip the room cleaning and having a tree planted instead, is one of those things’. Hugo from Hotels for Trees.

‘We’re thrilled to team up with Fifteen Trees in this crucial effort. Koalas are an iconic Australian species, and with increasing threats to their natural environment, it’s never been more important to ensure they have access to suitable habitats.Planting these trees is just the beginning of a broader initiative to safeguard their future’. Ballarat Wildlife Park

According to Sustainability Victoria, the average Australian lifestyle produces 15,000kg of carbon per year. If that sounds like a lot, it is! Over its lifetime, a tree can collect and store 268kg. This means, we each need to plant 58 trees per year to bring our individual carbon production down to zero. A little tricky for most of us to do in our own backyards, and this is where ‘A Subscription for the Planet’ comes in.
