Eco-Smart
The “Plant a Billion Trees” Campaign
When you place an order, Bsimple will have a tree planted on your behalf in Brazil's Atlantic Rainforest. The Nature Conservancy’s “Plant a Billion Trees” campaign is restoring 2.5 million acres of land and planting 1 billion trees over the next 7 years. The Atlantic Rainforest is considered one of the world’s largest and yet most endangered tropical rainforests and plays an important role in regulating the atmosphere and stabilizing global climate.
