Just One Tree

Just one tree makes a difference

For every £200 in bookings or sales, we will donate one tree to the Just One Tree inititive. For a full weekend photography workshop we will plant approx. 30 trees. For a full week long tour we will plant approx 55 trees, and so on…

Why plant trees?

Attending photography tours and workshops means our carbon footprint can be higher than normal, especially where overseas flights and travel is involved. Growing trees is scientifically proven to absorb carbon and other polutants from our atmosphere.

Who are Just One Tree?

JUST ONE Tree is a non-profit initiative removing CO2 from the atmosphere and reversing biodiversity loss through global reforestation. They plant trees in areas severely affected by deforestation to maximise the effect on reducing global warming. In the process they help to provide agricultural education and sustainable incomes to local communities.

But they don’t stop there. JUST ONE Tree concentrates on restoring the entire ecosystem by planting on land and in the oceans, and they also focus on helping to shape the next generation of planet-conscious thinkers by bringing environmental education into the classrooms with their free teaching resources and JUST ONE Tree Day.

    Trees planted in 2023

    The cost of planting these trees is borne from our profit and not added to your workshop costs.

    THIS IS NOT GREEN-WASHING. WE ARE ACTIVELY MAKING A COMMITMENT TO HELP THE EXACT ENVIRONMENT THAT WE LOVE AND ENJOY

    We work with communities to provide training, education, and sustainable incomes.

    We lift people out of poverty, whilst regenerating their local environments.

     

    WE HAVE JUST ONE PLANET – TOGETHER LET’S RESTORE IT

    WHY PLANTING TREES MAKES A DIFFERENCE

    Just One Tree

    FORESTS ARE THE LUNGS
    OF THE PLANET.
    ​THEY CLEAN THE AIR AND ABSORB CARBON DIOXIDE FROM THE ATMOSPHERE.

    Just One Tree

    ON AVERAGE A TREE ABSORBS 22KG OF CARBON DIOXIDE
    PER YEAR, FOR EVERY YEAR
    ​OF ITS LIFE.

    Just One Tree

    FORESTS CAN PROVIDE 30% OF THE SOLUTION TO KEEPING RISING GLOBAL TEMPERATURES
    ​BELOW 2    °.

    EVEN STILL, THE TROPICS LOST 4.1 MILLION HECTARES OF  PRIMARY RAINFORESTS IN 2022.
    ​
    THAT’S AN AREA THE SIZE OF SWITZERLAND AND CREATING THE SAME AMOUNT OF CO2 EMISSIONS AS INDIA…IN JUST ONE YEAR.

    With the support of Nationwide Building Society, Just One Tree are reforesting our beautiful planet

    WHY ARE WE SO PASSIONATE?

     

    Because the world we live in is beautiful and full of wonder.
    We can’t just watch it being destroyed.

    As keen photographers, if the environment that we need for our hobby and our passion is damaged and not taken care of then we have nothing to enjoy. Nothing to photograph.

    Because the problem is still solvable
    and we have a way to help.
