Business discovers easy implementation with visible impact

‍

Vernette Roberts was looking for ways to improve her business's sustainability practices but wanted something that felt concrete and achievable. She found traditional carbon solutions either too complex or too removed from her day-to-day operations.

‍

Vernette found what she was looking for: "Easy & Tangible. We're always looking for ways we can improve sustainability within our business, not only for us, but for our clients: we have taken many actions already to lower our footprint, but we can do more. I love how quick it was to sign up, and knowing that I'm planting real native trees in New Zealand based on my actual carbon footprint."

‍

Rather than abstract carbon credits in distant locations, Vernette chose a solution that plants real native trees locally, creating a tangible connection between her business activities and environmental impact.

This tangible approach made sustainability feel more meaningful and created a stronger connection between her business operations and environmental impact.
