Worried about the footprint you leave on the earth?

You've gotten the company's light bulbs changed to the more energy efficient types, started a recycling project for all those discarded newspapers, old faxes and photocopies and you're always encouraging everyone to use public transportation or carpool to work. But still you know your company is contributing more carbon dioxide than you're offsetting...

Your place of work has still got a long way to go until it reaches ultimate carbon neutrality. So you ask yourself - how else can we go about achieving this lofty of goals? Well thankfully, there is a great way to do this which also helps with reforestation in Ireland at the same time!

It is generally agreed that for every two trees you plant, you offset a ton of carbon. This is why the ethos behind Rooted in Ireland is so good. They plant oak trees for you, you offset your carbon footprint, and Ireland gets more trees to replace the ones taken from it by centuries of destruction.....whats not to like?

I am sure that you will be suprised to hear that the most treeless land in Europe is Ireland.

Rooted in Ireland's oak planting project is situated in a beautiful part of Ireland, close the historic city of Armagh, and surrounded by rolling hills and mountain ranges!

Imagine the satisfaction you can have knowing that you're not only offsetting your company's carbon footprint by having memorial oak trees planted through Rooted in Ireland, but you're also bringing back an important part of the natural history to a proud and beautiful region through your donation.

For just under $100 you can offset approximately one-half ton of your carbon emissions through the planting of a single memorial oak tree at the Rooted in Ireland site. These trees will live complete lives where they are planted in Ireland. They will not be cut down, but will stand as living memorials to your dedication to stop global warming. To remind you of your company's part in the fight to reduce carbon emissions, you will receive a certificate, a photograph of the site and a personalized letter. Your name will be entered into our ledger and as people visit, they will also be reminded of your contribution.

Although carbon emissions are a serious global issue, you can take pride in knowing you're helping the entire environment and bringing back that lovely emerald hue to the area best known for the "wearing of the green."

Plant some trees, and offset your carbon footprint. Help bring back the natural beauty to Ireland's landscape; visit Rooted in Ireland's website today!
