Many scientists believe that climate change and global warming are existential threats to humanity.

If they are right, what can we do about it?

Planting trees is a step in the right direction, but it isn't enough.

Especially when there are more effective ways to remove CO2 from the atmosphere.

Did you know that planting a single “Supertree” can have up to 100 times more impact on climate change than planting an ordinary tree?

A recent Vox article states:

In a climate emergency, [Supertrees] are truly extraordinary: Their ability to store carbon, under the right conditions, is unmatched by any other tree on Earth." [1]

And did you know that these 'Supertrees' are so important that: “If these [Supertree] ecosystems collapse, the climate effects are likely to be irreversible. And so what happens to these forests truly affects all life on Earth.” [2]

And what’s worse is that these Supertree ecosystems could very easily collapse unless we do something about it:

[Supertrees] are nevertheless declining rapidly as a result of land clearing, [...] overharvesting, and development. A 30–50% [area] decline over the past half-century has prompted estimates that [supertrees] may functionally disappear in as little as 100 years. [3]

It all sounds very bleak, doesn't it? Of course we can do a lot to prevent that from happening. But before we get into that, let’s dive into how Supertrees can be so much better than ordinary trees.

How is it possible for a “Supertree” to be 100 times better than an ordinary tree?

Doesn't it seem impossible that a special kind of tree can be 100 times better at fighting climate change? You might think there’s no way that this can be true, but then you’d be wrong.

It Removes Carbon 10 Times Faster

To start, Supertrees sequester or pull carbon out of the atmosphere 10 times faster than ordinary trees. And don’t take my word for it, this is exactly what the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has to say:

quote-avatar

“Current studies suggest that mangroves and coastal wetlands annually sequester carbon at a rate ten times greater than mature tropical forests.” [4]

It Stores Carbon 10 to 100 Times Longer

But that’s not all, not only do Supertrees carbon 10X faster than other trees, they store that carbon 10X to 100X longer than regular trees. Scientists at the NOAA say,

quote-avatar

“Their soils are largely anaerobic (without oxygen) so carbon that gets incorporated into the soils decomposes very slowly and can persist for hundreds or even thousands of years (carbon storage).” [4]

Since ordinary trees store carbon for tens to hundreds of years (without even accounting for forest fires, which Supertrees are much less vulnerable to), and Supertress can store carbon for thousands of years, Supertrees can store carbon 10X to 100X longer than regular trees.

Simple Math, 10 x 10 = 100

Now that we know that Supertrees remove carbon 10 times faster and they store carbon at least 10 times longer, isn't it easy to see how Supertrees are at least 100 times better than ordinary trees at reversing climate change?

Simply put 10 X 10 = 100.

Therefore, Supertrees are 100 times better than ordinary trees when it comes to reversing climate change and global warming.

What Will You Do With This Knowledge?

Will you be like most people, who claim that they are worried about climate change, but won’t lift a single finger to do anything about it?

Or will you take action?

Will you keep planting ordinary trees to offset your CO2 emissions? Sure that’s better than doing nothing like most people.

Or will you start planting “Supertrees”, especially when planting “Supertrees” is just as affordable as planting regular trees.

In fact, you can get started planting “Supertrees” for as little as $0.04 per day or less than $1.20 per month.

If you can't afford $1.20 per month to put your money where your mouth is, I really feel for you.

I know how tough times are for a lot of people out there and I'd like to help.

If you don't have an extra $1.20 to spare, please email me at [email protected] and I'll do what I can to help.

So, cost shouldn't be a reason to not take action.

Don’t you hate it when hypocrites say they are worried about climate change, but don’t make any changes to reduce their CO2 pollution and expect others to do all the work for them?

So given what you now know about Supertrees, and given that it costs as little as $0.04 per day to plant them:

What is your excuse for not taking action?

If you won’t take action, after reading this far... Would you email me at [email protected]? I genuinely want to know why.

FAQs

How do we help you offset your CO2 emissions?

We help you offset your carbon emissions by planting "super" trees that absorb 10x the amount of carbon as regular trees and store that carbon for more than 10x longer.

How does it work?

After you sign up we start planting supertrees for you. Since "super" trees (Mangroves) recapture 10x more carbon than regular trees and for carbon 10x longer, you can significantly reduce the impact of the CO2 that you emit in your daily life.

How you you know that my supertrees are being planted and properly cared for?

We carefully vet our tree planting partners and projects to ensure that they meet the highest standards of planting and preservation. We regularly review project updates to ensure your trees are planted and taken care of.

Are you sure supertrees fight climate change better than regular trees?

Yes, because scientific data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and from many other reputable scientific organizations all support these findings.

And not only do supertrees remove up to 10x more carbon and store that carbon for more than 10x longer, they also provide many other benefits.

Supertrees prevent storm surge which ravages coastal communities and they trap silt from run off before it can reach the ocean and smother reefs.

By keeping reefs healthy they help fish and other aquatic species thrive.

What's more, supertree planting projects provide well paying jobs for indigenous people to help support their families economically.

Are you sure that planting supertrees will help fight climate change?

Yes, according to research published in Nature Geoscience, Murdiyarso and colleagues found that mangrove deforestation worldwide generates “as much as around 10% of emissions from deforestation globally, despite accounting for just 0.7% of tropical forest area.”

This means if we plant mangroves to reverse their deforestation, we can have a significant impact in the fight against climate change.

That's where you step in.

We've sourced the trees from certified partners who work with local governments and NGOs to plant the trees safely and legally.

Now's your chance to take action for as little as $1/mo to help the Earth be a place in the future for yourself, your children, and grandchildren.
