Trees for individuals
Buy or donate trees- Make a difference
Regardless of age, we all contribute to the release of carbon dioxide into the environment through our daily activities such as purchasing goods and services, commuting, traveling, and other everyday tasks. Changing our daily habits can be challenging, and the impact may be limited. Through our CO2 capture we support local living conditions and improve the environment for all of us.
Trees4CO2 is a platform that offers you the opportunity to make a difference by planting trees.
By buying trees that capture Co2, we will replant the tree 3 times after harvesting. Together we will then plant a purchased tree 4 times over a period of 80 years. You then contribute to continuous CO2 capture throughout this period.
When you donate a tree or more, these are harvested after 20 years. You will then have the opportunity to donate the entire purchase price to a charitable organization. In this way, you contribute both to a better environment and to supporting a charity organization.

Supporting Environmental Sustainability
Taking Responsibility: Carbon Offsetting and Reforestation
On an individual level, our daily choices such as food, clothing, transportation, and consumption has an ecological impact. On a larger scale, industries and businesses also contribute to environmental degradation and strain on the world’s ecosystems.
Trees4CO2, a Norwegian company, provides the ultimate solution to offset carbon emissions through sustainable tree planting. Our program focuses on reforestation efforts in East Africa, where they are needed the most. By joining our cause, you are not only offsetting your carbon footprint but also supporting the local communities and preserving the environment.
Planting Trees for Restoration and Carbon Offset
Revitalizing Forests through Sustainable Agriculture
The planet is facing a severe shortage of trees due to deforestation caused by industrialization and agriculture. However, the same industry that caused the problem can also be part of the solution.
In the face of deforestation, it is crucial to focus on effective methods of restoring forest cover, and our forestry partner is doing just that in Uganda. By planting fast-growing indigenous trees such as Giant Lira, we can significantly increase forest cover and offer numerous benefits to farmers who incorporate them into their land. It’s time to take action and revive our forests through sustainable agriculture.
Long-Term Climate Impact through Tree Planting
Fight Climate change through carbon offsetting!
The effects of climate change are evident, with average global temperatures rising over the last three decades. However, mitigating its impact requires a long-term commitment. Tree planting offers a sustainable solution, as it not only reduces carbon emissions but also provides numerous other benefits to the environment. By purchasing or donating trees, you are making a commitment to a cleaner and greener future.
One Million Tree Seedlings Distributed to Farmers in Just 9 Months
In September 2018, barely nine months after the tree nursery began, over 1 million tree seedlings were grown, and three-quarters of them were distributed to the farmers. Since then, the partner farmer program has become very popular, and in 2022, the number of partner farmers was over 16,000. Continual efforts are made to improve every aspect of the tree planting process for the farmers, with the goal of creating a lasting ecological, environmental, and economic impact for them and future generations, as well as combating climate change.
Thousands of farmers are ready to plant millions of trees in their communities. With the support of tree donors, we at Trees4CO2 aim to positively impact the lives of tens of thousands of farmers by providing them with sustainable livelihoods and combating the effects of climate change. Be a part of this movement and make a difference today.

A quota is how much CO2 a person offsets per year. This varies greatly depending on living conditions, travel frequencies (domestic/international), personal habits, driving, distance to work and how you get there, etc.
Trees4CO2 is based on the calculation method of the World Bank and the UN. For a person in Norway, the average CO2 footprint approx. 7 tons annually.
Each tree absorbs in excess of 0,5 tons CO2.
We offer two options to offset CO2 for our customers.
When you buy a tree, we will replant the tree 3 times after harvesting (the tree is harvested after 20 years). Together we will then plant a purchased tree 4 times over a period of 80 years. You then contribute to a continuous capture of CO2 through all of this period.
When you donate a tree, it is harvested after 20 years. You then get the opportunity to donate the purchase price to a charity organization. In this way, you contribute both to a better environment and to supporting a charitable organization.
The carbon capture is calculated by the organization Dutch Green. Each tree captures approximately 0.5 tons of CO2.
Trees4CO2 is your Norwegian partner in the CO2 capture process. All aspects will be organized and handled by us in the relation to our customers.

A significant majority of our trees are planted in what is described as dryland (uncultivated land). This is semi-arid and arid territory.
It varies depending on where the trees are planted. In Uganda, the trees are harvested after 15 years. In Kenya, the trees are harvested after 16-20 years.
Mahogany trees planted in Kenya are developed and cultivated to become significant and powerful absorbers of carbon emissions. The tree planting is directed by our partner Better Globe Forestry and helps to restore ecosystems, biodiversity, as well as the crucial conversion of dryland to cultivated land.
