Our story

We’re just getting started

Trees4CO2 AS, rooted in the beautiful landscapes of Norway. Our mission goes beyond simple tree planting; it’s a multifaceted initiative to foster ecological balance, socio-economic progression, and the fight against climate change.

Our company thrives on the principle of sustainable forestry. We understand the undeniable role trees play in maintaining our planet’s ecological balance and, through our efforts, we strive to restore degraded lands. Particularly, we’ve targeted the semi-arid regions of East Africa, where decades of deforestation have severely impacted local ecosystems. By planting trees in these areas, we’re bringing life back to the soil, and more importantly, to the communities that depend on it.

However, our mission does not stop at reforestation. We recognize the value of local communities and aim to provide employment and financial opportunities for them. Our operations directly contribute to the local economy and support sustainable agriculture, promoting long-term sustainability that goes beyond the lifespan of our projects.

Moreover, in the face of rising global temperatures, Trees4CO2 AS also offers impactful carbon offsetting solutions. By absorbing CO2, trees play a significant role in the fight against climate change, making our operations an effective way of decreasing carbon emissions. This enables us to provide unique and influential emission offset programs for individuals and organizations, thus allowing them to actively participate in mitigating climate change.
