Our trees systematically include CO2

When you plant trees with Tree‑Nation, your contribution automatically includes its CO₂ impact.
There’s no need to purchase separate carbon credits or add‑on options — every tree you fund already carries its corresponding CO₂ capture, measured and assigned to you.

1. CO₂ is always included with Tree‑Nation trees

At Tree‑Nation, CO₂ absorption is built in by design.
Each species we plant has a scientifically estimated carbon value, and that value is attached to your trees from the start. This ensures that every planting action represents a real, traceable climate benefit — not just a symbolic gesture.

Some reforestation initiatives separate the tree from its CO₂ claim, but at Tree‑Nation, these two are inseparable. After all, what is a tree without its environmental benefit?

Your trees always include their CO₂ rights, calculated through our own transparent and conservative approach. See: Our Carbon Methodology

2. We don’t double‑count or resell CO₂ rights

Each tonne of CO₂ linked to your trees is exclusively assigned to you.
Once a tree is planted and linked to your forest, its CO₂ impact cannot be:

• sold again to another sponsor, or

• counted twice toward separate offset claims.

This means your contribution is unique, verifiable, and fully protected from both double‑charging and double‑counting — two of the most common integrity issues in the carbon world.

3. How we technically prevent duplication

Tree‑Nation’s platform was built to make duplication impossible.

• Each tree has its own Digital Tree ID recorded in our Tree Ledger – How Each Tree Is Digitally Unique.

• Our database architecture ensures a strict rule: one tree → one sponsor → one CO₂ claim.

Because of this digital traceability, your impact is transparent and permanently linked to you, visible in your forest and certificates.

👉 See: [Project Ownership] for more on how CO₂ rights are attributed.

4. Can I use this for my carbon accounting?

Yes, the CO₂ values indicated on your Tree‑Nation certificate represent the tonnes associated with your financed trees. You can include this figure in your company’s sustainability reporting, internal offset accounting, or CSR communications.

For example, Cofidis uses its annual Tree‑Nation certificate to report the amount of CO₂ compensated through its trees.

This certificate serves as your official proof of offsetting, backed by Tree‑Nation’s carbon calculation methodology.

5. When you do need external certification

Tree‑Nation’s certificates are ideal for voluntary offsetting and CSR reporting.

If your organization requires externally certified credits (for example, to meet regulatory or carbon‑neutrality standards), please contact us to explore complementary solutions.

✅ Summary

In short:

Every tree you plant through Tree‑Nation comes with its own CO₂ value — measured, assigned, and protected from duplication. You don’t need to add carbon separately. It’s already part of the impact you create.
