I tried to donate trees to trillion tree campaign, but it seems you need a credit card? Didn't have one on hand, remembered later that I do own a virtual visa. Should try again later. In the meantime, I just donated to a Dutch tree planting website that I donated to before. They're a bit more expensive though. Add 8 trees.

Any recommendations for doing ongoing monthly donations to tree planting? I'm in the UK, which might make a difference.

Arggghhh, tough choice! With the Eden project I could have donated well over 1000 trees for the same price as this, but I went with the International Tree Foundation in the end since Kenya means a lot to me personally, their tree survival rate is higher, and they go into so much detail about how the money is used. Really good to see so many different projects getting support in this thread though =)

Thank you for planting 200 trees with International Tree Foundation!​

So that's still 1000 total, with a good mix of quality/quantity =)

33,000 trees. I think that's roughly a square kilometre of an average density forest.

well done, era

CURRENT NUMBER OF TREES PLANTED BY ERA : 33 860
(last updated 2019-12-28 9:00 UTC-4)

This thread first started to show ERA's members support for the global climate strike. After the first goal of 1000 trees planted was reached in a few hours, we updated to a new goal of 10 000 trees. This has been reached as well in just a matter of days. After consideration I decided to keep this thread alive so people can keep donating, with a new goal of 25k trees for Christmas **REACHED!**. NEW GOAL 50 000 TREES

I will be updating the total number from time to time.

How does it work?
  1. Create an account on https://www.trilliontreecampaign.org
  2. Log In to the site with your account
  3. In the left panel, go to "Donate Trees"
  4. Choose your project (you can see details like where the trees will be planted, survival rate and price, they all vary...)
  5. Donate.
  6. Post your donation receip in this thread!
Can I use another organization to donate?
YES! Just make sure it is legit, and show a proof of purchase (like receipt or email) in a post.

Can I plant trees myself locally? Do they count?
Of course! We trust you to be honest and won't ask for any evidence... But a cute little picture of your new tree(s) would be a nice addition to this thread!

****************************************************************************************​

I'm starting things up with 100 trees. I choose this program, as you can see, the trees are pretty cheap! 10$ plant 100 trees for this project! There are many endangered animals in Madagascar, and trees in Haïti (which suffers from massive deforestation) protects the soil and people during tropical storms and hurricanes.

Receipt :

A tree can absorb as much as 48 pounds of carbon dioxide per year and can sequester 1 ton of carbon dioxide by the time it reaches 40 years old. You can check a complete list of benefits here : https://projects.ncsu.edu/project/treesofstrength/benefits.htm
just a quick note that you spelled receipt wrong in the OP

"Post your donation receip in this thread! "

Well, we didn't make the (admittedly very lofty) 50K goal but still an absolutely amazing accomplishment. I think era needs to show some mad respect for Pomerlaw 's efforts and dedication to creating and maintaining this thread and tally. Huge amount of work and outstanding results. Even if we're averaging 10 cents a tree (which is probably low) this means era raised 3000 bucks (unless my math is off!).

What's the plan Pomerlaw? Thread title update and let the thread exist in perpetuity or you thinking you gonna shut her down and maybe make it a recurring thing?

I kept forgetting to donate last year, so I figured I should do it once I had the time to figure out the issues the site kept giving me.

That's awesome, Pomerlaw - kudos on keeping it going. Planning to make another donation soon.

Fun fact: my sister donated 50 bucks to an organization on my behalf (Bird Life) for Christmas, but they quantify this in trees. I was like "thanks but... wtf do I tell era??"
