Climaton was created to make tree planting activities by global citizens and companies reliable, cost-effective, transparent, and simple. Existing tree planting initiatives often suffer from a lack of transparency and accountability, making it challenging for companies to ensure that their funding is being utilized effectively and that the intended impact is being achieved. Our platform 100% cures this problem. By a mere click, you can plant over 1000 trees with a 98% survival rate.
Climaton is creating a movement that recognizes our collective responsibility for protecting planet Earth and understands that every tree planted is another step towards combating climate change, preserving biodiversity, reducing poverty, and safeguarding future generations.
We want to make tree planting cost-effective and easy to integrate into everyday life, whether planting as an individual or business.
Climaton goes beyond simply allocating money for tree planting. We work closely with local communities to showcase the immense value newly planted trees and restored forests bring to their regions and families. Through education and empowerment, we find local communities quickly develop a deep sense of ownership and pride over their trees, leading to effective management over the long-term, keeping all planted trees not just alive, but thriving.
All the prices quoted for tree seedlings include the following:
There’s no minimum spend required; you can plant trees as and when you’d like.
Pricing is affected by labor, local resources, infrastructure, size of the projects, and distance of the planting site from the tree nursery. Our goal is to plant as many trees for the environment as possible, while still ensuring maximum viability and impact. With that goal in mind, we do not mark up the tree purchase costs more than is necessary and pass those savings benefits on to our customers.
We send quarterly newsletters and impact metrics specific to your trees, updating you on the progress of our projects, as well as sharing the exact GPS location coordinates of your trees – feel free to look them up on Google Maps.
All your trees will be planted by our dedicated network of smallholder farmers whom we train on tree planting best practices. All your forest trees will be planted and nurtured by our network of incentivized youth groups we partner with across all our tree planting projects. These youth groups reside closer to tree planting sites across our projects.
Extremely thoroughly. We heavily research every partner we work with to ensure:
Our projects range from an 85-98% survival rate depending on the project location. We work with our tree planting partners to plant trees as quickly as the planting seasons allow, to give them the maximum chances of survival.
Trees absorb carbon dioxide through the process of photosynthesis – absorbing CO2 from the air, releasing oxygen, and locking up the carbon until the end of the tree’s life. While all plants absorb carbon dioxide, trees absorb significantly more because of their size, roots, and average lifespan.
The amount of carbon each tree captures depends on the tree type, location, and life. We plant a mix of 10 tree species. Each tree captures various amounts of carbon over its lifetime (which ranges based on tree species). Each tree species enlisted on our platform includes CO2 levels to be absorbed by the tree annually.
We plant all trees during major rainy seasons based on our tree planting project location across Africa to ensure high survival rates. All the trees paid for shall be aggregated and planted at the same time, where you’ll receive a real-time update email once your trees have been planted. You will be able to track the status of your trees via a dedicated dashboard on your account.
In your Climaton account, you can see the impact made with the trees you’ve planted in your dashboard.
Climaton is a for-profit business. We work with tree planting NGOs across Africa to fund the purchase of seeds, operate nurseries, conduct planting work, provide training to the local farmers, and protect the planting site to ensure a high survival rate—all this is made possible by the tree purchases you make.
Yes – if you plant trees with Climaton and sign up for an account, you will have access to our partner resources support benefits, which include creating partnership posts and supporting your tree planting and CSR communications.
