Planet Smart City, a proptech company that designs and builds large-scale smart, affordable housing projects to tackle the global housing deficit, has partnered with Tree-Nation, a NGO which enables businesses and individuals to contribute to reforestation.

Since Tree-Nation’s establishment in 2006, more than 390,000 people and 9,300 businesses have joined its projects, helping plant more than 19 million trees worldwide. The organization identifies reforestation projects which are managed by national NGOs and must comply with VCS-Verified Carbon Standard, Gold Standard and Plan Vivo standards. It currently has 90 active projects in 25 countries.

Reinforcing Planet’s commitment to improving the communities where it operates, its partnership with Tree-Nation will initially see 1,260 trees planted in Brazil, India and the UK – one tree for each person who works at Planet Smart City – resulting in more than 520 tons of CO2 absorbed during the lifetime of the trees. With ambitious plans to expand its operations around the world, Planet has also pledged to plant a new tree for every colleague who joins the Group.
