    A bit of a dreadful morning here, but your idea made me instantly happy. Initiatives like this are awesome. Reminded me of freerice.

    Hi, great idea! Will you charge for this?

    These guys have been doing this for a while, and it's free: https://digitalhumani.com/

      Hi, We will charge the price of one tree per success. At the end of each month we will send the invoice. And we will send the planting results (provided by our planting partners).

    Very interesting project. I just build an Dapp application that help to reward the planting of trees using blockchain technology, see: https://traiggy.com.
    If interested we can work together on it

    Love the idea, but how come it's Β£3 a tree when Ecologi can do it for 12p a tree?

    I think this is an awesome idea. My knee-jerk reaction to this was "ecommerce merchants would want this on their site." have you considered targeting that market?

      Done. thank you for telling me.

    This is awesome! There's an organisation based in the UK doing something really similar - they offer a subscription model + an API that allows you to programmatically plant trees.

    I'm pleased to see more businesses forming in this space!
