Are you worried about global warming? How can you help?  n0co2.org makes it easy by planting trees. Because trees can remove ALL your CO2 emissions.

Worried about Climate Change? How you can do something about it 

Burning coal oil and gas creates CO2 which causes global warming. Now you can do something about it.  Plant trees!  Because trees remove your CO2 footprint.  We make it easy by planting trees for you 

What causes global warming?   80% is caused by fossil fuels we use: petrol, diesel, gas and air travel 

We remove your CO2 by planting trees

For every £10 we will plant 90 trees. Act now and you can do your bit to stop heat, drought, flooding and sea level rise from wrecking life on Earth for our children and grandchildren - and for our wildlife too

What can you do?  Plant enough trees to remove ALL your CO2 footprint! 

We help businesses to go green and be seen to be green

For Families and Businesses

First cut as much of your CO2 emissions as you can.  This means cutting CO2 by using less fossil fuels: less petrol, diesel, air travel, less gas for central heating, and less electricity - unless yours is 100% from renewables

Where we plant trees, this provides meaningful paid work which reduces extreme poverty and transforms lives. Planting trees also and restores healthy forests for animals and bird life.

What are benefits of planting trees?

Low cost per tree. Provides paid work for families in extreme poverty.  And creates new habitats for wild animals and birds

Why n0co2.org to plant your trees?

You choose! Remove your CO2 from £20 One-Time Donation or £15 per month. To remove ALL your fossil fuel for 1 person we need to plant 1,750 trees. We plant 1,750 trees for you for £15 a month, or a one-time donation of only £187!  

How much does it cost?

This is for you if you care about our beautiful planet, our children and our wildlife.   Because all this will be wrecked unless we cut our CO2

Why we need to stop global warming

MOST people are now concerned about Climate change.  We just need to reach out to them about N0CO2.  Will you share N0CO2  with your friends?  You can do it now: 

Share this with friends

We felt we MUST stop climate change from wrecking our planet. We set up N0CO2 to make it easy for people to do something about it.   N0CO2 is volunteer managed and professionally delivered. We spent our own time and money to set it up.   Think about the fossil fuels you buy.  Now Give Back for them.   That’s all it takes. Please do your bit.

N0CO2

Most people now agree that climate change is the greatest threat to ourselves, our families, our planet and our wildlife. Would you like to help us to do something about it?  

Awesome that you've read to here!

Eden Reforestation Projects are planting trees for us in 10 countries including Madagascar, Indonesia and Nepal. Eden reduces extreme poverty and restores healthy forests by employing local villagers to plant millions of trees every year. Eden has planted over 900 million trees and created over 9 million workdays. Eden is a GuideStar Platinum Seal of Transparency rated charity. 

In partnership with Eden Reforestation Projects 

Plant trees and you remove your CO2 footprint, create meaningful paid work, and help stop climate change.

Please remove your Carbon Footprint

Our Motivation

I think about a young person in the 2050’s.  In the middle of massive climate breakdown.  A World of rising sea levels, failing crops, food shortages, conflict over land, and millions of climate refugees. What on earth were you doing in 2022 to let this happen?  What did you do to help stop climate change?

My children are aged 18 to 23.  What motivates me is the thought that climate change could damage the planet and the future not just of my children, but of EVERYONE across the whole world aged under 30. We could have named N0CO2 No kicking the can down the road!

Global Warming – What can I do to help?

<h2><strong>Could people really allow climate change to wreck our Planet?</strong></h2><p>This is what brought us together. We are determined to do what we can to stop climate change!</p><p>We see a lot of people are now concerned about climate change. But what we also see is people don’t know what to do about it. They feel helpless. It all seems too difficult.</p><p>This is why we set up&nbsp;N0CO2&nbsp;- so people can do something about it.&nbsp;We make it easy for people to remove the CO2 emissions they create, and easy to reach out to others.&nbsp;So people can do their bit to stop climate change.</p><p>We are a volunteer managed non-profit organisation.</p><p>We felt we must do something to protect our planet from being wrecked by climate change. So we spent our own time and money to set up&nbsp;N0CO2.&nbsp;</p><p>Now you can do something about it too.</p><h2><strong><u>Why Plant Trees?</u></strong></h2><p>Half the world’s rainforest has been destroyed in the last 40 years.</p><p>Our aim is to re-establish and protect healthy forests that live in perpetuity</p><p>Re-afforestation is a one-time way of removing CO<sub>2</sub>&nbsp;from the air for all the years the tree is growing.&nbsp;Planting trees is nature’s way to remove CO<sub>2</sub>&nbsp;from the air.&nbsp;It’s also excellent value, and transforms lives.</p><ul><li>“It is undeniable that planting new woodlands in appropriate locations removes CO<sub>2&nbsp;</sub>from the atmosphere, and also provides a number of other environmental and social benefits.” Source: UK Forestry Commission.</li><li>Trees planted in moist tropical areas absorb CO<sub>2</sub>&nbsp;much faster than in temperate areas such as the UK.&nbsp;And it’s over 10 times more cost-effective than planting trees in the US or the UK.</li><li>Because we plant trees in areas of extreme poverty, your donation has a much bigger impact.&nbsp;Planting trees creates meaningful paid work for local villagers, which reduces extreme poverty and can transform lives by enabling their children to attend school. And creates healthy natural forests, which sustain animal and bird life.</li><li>Scientists have come up with ways to remove CO<sub>2</sub>&nbsp;by industrial processes, but the cost would be over 50 TIMES MORE than our tree-planting!</li></ul><h2><strong><u>Our Team</u></strong></h2><p><strong>N0CO</strong><sub><strong>2</strong></sub>&nbsp;Founders are Charles and Stephan.&nbsp;The inspiration was Professor William Macaskill and his book “Doing Good Better.”&nbsp;Charles looks after online strategy, sales and business.&nbsp;Stephan is an engineer, entrepreneur and climate scientist from Paris, who keeps us on track with the correct climate science.&nbsp;</p><p>We are part of the International NGO Saving Our Planet, whose mission is to inspire, energize and enable the entire community of humans to work together to save the planet, and to convince World Leaders to make the fight against climate change their number one priority.&nbsp;Founded originally by Hans Jorgen Rasmussen, we registered Saving Our Planet in 2016 in France as a public interest non-profit, under Association Loi 1901, Registration Number W751235109.&nbsp;George Monbiot, the Guardian writer, is an Honorary Member.
