Planting trees, saving CO2

Created by Marius Lazar, Modified on Mon, 8 Dec, 2025 at 11:58 AM by Marius Lazar

A significant share of the CO₂ savings created in Changers is generated through tree plantings with the organizers of the challenges.

How It Works

We connect the participation performances, either in kilometers walked and cycled or in kilograms of CO₂ savings, with triggering a tree planting.

Why We Plant Trees

Trees represent a natural CO₂ storage option. They inhale CO₂, bind the carbon in their cells, and exhale oxygen vital for us.

CO₂ Calculation

We follow a recommendation of Plant-for-the-Planet: 5 trees are needed to bind 1 ton of CO₂.

Your Tree Counter

We credit 200 kg CO₂ savings to your account on the day of your tree planting. Your tree counter on the home screen receives another tree for life.
