TREES PLANTED

  “Thank you Colleen for running such a fantastic program and thank you to the businesses that have supported it.  We are so grateful for the trees that we received, as when we moved to our property 6 months ago, we only had one lonely old gum tree up in the back corner of our 5 acres.  We are looking forward to the animals and bird life that the new trees will bring as well as not having such a bare block any more!”  C & B M.   Ballarat City European carbon offset 4 of its new Peugeots last month. As a result the family at Springmount Property have been able to plant 60 native trees this winter. New Peugeot owners Creed, Mental Health Nursing and Isherwood all now have smaller carbon footprints thanks to the forward thinking of Justin Krousoratis at the Ballarat Peugeot dealership. Keep warm – 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.
