Viatek Western Victoria supports local tree planting.

TREES PLANTED

Managing Director of Viatek Central Victoria Peter Bull, walks the talk when it comes to sustainability. He understands that “being green is not just a potential competitive business advantage, it is also a good way to reduce costs and create more streamlined business processes”.  This year, Fifteen Trees planted 165 trees to reduce the carbon footprint of 11 vehicles at the Geelong office. That’s 15 trees for every car in the fleet.

Peter’s 165 trees were planted at Moolap Primary School. Teacher Jane Millinnton writes “A very big thank you to Viatek from Moolap Primary for your generous donation. The trees were planted on National Tree Day by students, teachers and parents.  We have built some beds along the fence line for the trees and are making sure students are staying off the beds. We really want to give the trees the best possible chance”! Hugh thanks to Peter. We still have another 165 trees to be planted in Bendigo district for Viatek Central. Stay tuned.

RECENT TREE PLANTINGS

This year, we planted Simon’s trees at Westgate Park in Port Melbourne with the team from Westgate Biodiversity, a not-for-profit organisation located at the base of one of Melbourne’s most iconic landmarks and busiest gateways to the city.

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.
