Planting trees has a ton of benefits. Not least, trees are vital for human and animal survival. In this episode, I speak with founder and CEO of Click A Tree about how the company has been able to work with local communities in Ghana and Thailand and promote the business of tree planting, and in turn facilitate reforestation and tackle the issue of climate change.

Click A Tree's fundraising model is to partner with online platforms such as Expedia, or more recently partnerships with local Gastronomy businesses, and create a user experience where website visitors offset a percentage of their purchase to Click A Tree's tree-planting programs. The tree is paid for from the marketing budget of the platform, instead of being invested in TV spots or Google Ads.

It is through this revenue that Click A Tree has been able to plant over a hundred thousand trees thus far, as well as help to educate young, unemployed Ghanaians, protect endangered animal species around the world, battle against climate change, provide work in developing countries, and even protect the quality of soil and air around the world.
