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

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.

For hotels, embracing sustainability can strengthen brand loyalty, enhance their reputation, and help differentiate them in a competitive market. In this way, sustainable initiatives are not just good for the planet – they also make strong business sense, creating a win-win for hotels, their guests, and the communities and ecosystems they support.

There’s something quietly powerful about a person who decides, on their own, to do something good for the planet. No fanfare, no corporate mandate – just a simple choice to put a few trees in the ground. When hundreds of individuals make that same choice, something remarkable happens. Native forests are restored, wildlife corridors are rebuilt, and community groups across Australia get to do the work they love. So if you’ve ever purchased trees through Fifteen Trees, thank you.
