Planting Habits let you link meaningful actions to tree-planting commitments—and inspire others to do the same.
🌍 What is a Planting Habit?
Planting Habits are public commitments to plant trees each time a specific action happens—like closing a sale, attending a meeting, or celebrating a birthday.
Each habit is defined by:
-
A triggering action
-
A hashtag (e.g.
#1sale1tree
) -
A tree counter that tracks how many trees have been planted for that habit
This unique combination transforms individual commitments into a visible and trackable movement, making it easier for others to discover, adopt, and replicate impactful actions.

What makes a Planting Habit powerful?
A Planting Habit isn’t just something you do—it’s a signal, an invitation, and a data-backed force for change. By publicly linking a habit to a hashtag and planting action, you:
-
Help normalize climate-positive behavior
-
Contribute to a growing library of best practices
-
Help surface the most impactful, trending habits through public counters
Whether it's
#HappyBirthday
or #GreenEvent
, the simplicity and visibility of these habits make them contagious.🌱
Why habits matter
One-off actions are good. Habits create scale.
When repeated and shared, a Planting Habit:
-
Multiplies your impact
-
Inspires others to join
-
Surfaces what works through public counters and hashtags
With each tracked habit, the community identifies the most effective, engaging ways to plant trees—making it easier for everyone to follow proven paths and grow a shared forest.

You don’t need millions of followers to make a difference. When your habit gains traction, others notice and may adopt it.
By promoting habits like
#1ride1tree
or #1client1tree
, you help set a standard of action in your industry or community.And with public counters, others can see exactly how your habit is growing—making it easier to follow your lead.
📢 What about campaigns?
Campaigns are Planting Habits, too—just with a twist.
They are Tree-Nation-led monthly themes (e.g. Earth Day, Women's Day) that include:
-
Dedicated planting badges
-
Pre-made visuals and copy
-
Collective goals and shared visibility
Campaigns are great for joining timely global causes, especially if you don’t yet have a personal habit in place. You can support campaigns alongside your ongoing habits.
