About

A unique special story.

Reforestation is one of the most effective counteractions to the climate crisis.
We are committed to growing new trees in regions of the world severely affected by deforestation.

For the planet,
for the people.

While doing so, we support entire families of farmers, donating trees to them and supporting their families’ economy and food supply. This is why our reforestation has high social impact.

zeroCO2's core values.

Our main goal is to counteract the climate crisis fostering a model of sustainable development.

We plant trees to counteract
the climate crisis.

Small daily choices and actions have decisive influence on the future of the earth! Often negatively, unfortunately. This is why with our project we are committed to support the environment and offset our daily carbon footprint.

We want to produce
long-term social impact.

All the trees we plant are donated to local farming families, generating food security and economic support. We strongly believe in education. This is why we train communities on land sustainable management.

We do it for real,
and you can track it.

All trees have a unique code that identifies them. Thanks to Chloe, our tracking and transparency system, you can monitor the growth of every single tree in your forest through periodic personalized updates.
