Podcast Episode 6 – Tackling Climate Change through reforestation – One Life One Tree

“Right now, we are facing a man-made disaster of global scale. Our greatest threat in thousands of years. Climate change.”

Sir David Attenborough

Every single day now we’re hearing more and more on climate change – whether it is David Attenborough’s plea through his documentaries, Greta Thunberg’s school strikes around the world, Amazon forest fires or celebrities and politicians. 

Thankfully it is becoming increasingly part of mainstream attention, but is enough being done yet to tackle the problem? The answer is undoubtedly ‘NO’! Studies suggest globally we are pumping 3.7 million tonnes of CO2 into the atmosphere EVERY HOUR! That every hour we 18,000 olympic swimming pools of water is melting from the polar ice caps! Radical action really is needed!

So we partnered up with a pioneering reforestation project – One Life One Tree, where amazingly through planting just 1 giant sequoia tree people can offset their entire life’s carbon emissions! 

Listen below to our exclusive interview with One Life One Tree founder Henry Emson as we planted two of our own giant sequoia trees
