Cork Leaf and trees.

TREES PLANTED

Christina Cavaco is the founder of a start up online business named Cork Leaf which produces an eco-friendly cork yoga mat. Cork bark is a natural and sustainable resource, and no trees are harmed in the production of cork (yay!). Cork Leaf are passionate about inspiring customers to practice naturally, on and off the mat. So, a partnership has evolved and Fifteen Trees now plants one tree for every CORK LEAF yoga mat sold. One mat = one tree.

The first planting of Cork Leaf’s trees (30) has taken place at Manor Lakes College. The school is participating in the AuSSI Vic / Resource Smart 5 star accreditation process and are keen to make a difference to the sustainability of their local area. Planting trees, takes them further along the pathway to a sustainable school plus the trees make for a great habitat area for native insects, mammals and birds. Manor Lakes planted 150 trees on the day, of which 30 came from Cork Leaf. Thank you Christina for finding Fifteen Trees (no mean feat). I look forward to practicing my asana on one of your mats.

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.
