A forest is a carbon bank, every tree a deposit.
To calculate carbon sequestration of a tree simply choose the age of a tree and tree type and press calculate to calculate the carbon content of a tree each year it grows. How much carbon a tree absorbs depends on the age of a tree and tree type.
Some trees are better at storing carbon than others; black locust will store more carbon than white pine for example.
The tree carbon calculator calculates the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) that is sequestered, or captured, by trees. It can be an important tool than can help individuals, businesses, and organizations understand the process of capturing and storing CO2 from the atmosphere in living trees and other types of vegetation so they can plan and enact tree planting programs to combat climate change.
In addition, the tree carbon calculator helps individuals, businesses, and organizations calculate their carbon footprint and make informed decisions on how to reduce it. As an urban tree planting tool, it helps design and plan strategic tree plantings in towns and cities were certain types of trees like Douglas fir that are particularly efficient at sequestering carbon in high carbon exhaust areas, for example.
In high exhaust carbon urban areas, trees use the excess carbon to grow and develop, storing carbon in the wood of their trunks, branches and roots while releasing oxygen into the atmosphere through the process of photosynthesis. Given the current trend of global warming and climate change there has never been a better time to plant trees and nature them to mature as quickly possible. The older, more mature a tree is, the better it is at absorption of CO2 from the atmosphere.
For detailed information about the interaction between the environment and trees use the carbon capture calculator below that calculates the following variables as a particular tree type grows:
Using the tree carbon calculator, simply choose the type and age of the tree and press calculate for the results.
Your donation will support a variety of tree projects including a rooftop tree project in Nepal, a collaboration between a small local nonprofit and Tree Plantation, that will plant at least one tree on every available roof in Kathmandu to help reduce the staggering air pollution that settles in the mountain valleys from factories in neighboring India. Air pollution is so bad some days that the elderly and children are not permitted to go outdoors.
A few thousand trees have been offered at no charge from the government of Nepal for the program. Several thousands more are needed. Collaboration between the government, the nonprofit and Tree Plantation will create a sustainable tree program that will grow and supply “a tree for free” to any family that want’s one residing in the city.
Our rooftop tree program will be introduced to the schools to be included as part of the curriculum or as a graded project. The hope is to educate students about the importance of trees that grow in an urban environment.
Bay leaf trees are grown in large wide mouth containers that are mounted on rooftops. The containers are wide and deep enough for a bay tree to grow for 50 years or more before it requires transplant. Trees grow fast the leaves quite large (much like Paulownia) and gather twice the pollution from the air than most other types of trees. Greening half the rooftops with trees would reduce pollution in Kathmandu by two thirds in just 5 years.
A Carbon credit (often called a carbon offset or tax credit) is a government issued environmental credit for greenhouse emissions reduced or removed from the atmosphere from an emission reduction project, which can be used by governments, industry or private individuals to compensate for the emissions they are generating.
Carbon credits are typically measured in tons of CO2-equivalents (or CO2e) and are bought and sold through international brokers, online retailers and various trading platforms. Businesses that find it hard to comply with the carbon emissions, purchase carbon credits to offset their emissions and reduce their taxes by making finance readily available to renewable energy projects, forest protection and reforestation projects around the world. These renewable energy and energy efficiency projects replace fossil fuel and polluting industrial processes. Their value depends on how much carbon a tree captures growing within a particular plantation.
Our Carbon Credit For Climate Change program pools donations made by people around the world along with their trees to create the largest carbon credit in the world, which will be used to offset the carbon exhausted by polluting industry. This large carbon credit may also be used to participate in a climate change tree project funded by a green bond anywhere in the world sponsored by the IMF and the World Bank. Polled donations will be used to plant more trees, millions of trees for climate change.
Use the tree carbon calculator below to calculate the total tax deduction available for the trees growing on your land. The donation calculator calculates your donation by the acre. For example, if you have 20 acres growing trees then using the donation calculator, you would qualify for a donation tax credit of $1,050 and you could do it each year you need a tax deduction.
Every tree planted is a metric waiting to be measured by a tree calculator.
Partner with us in a land management project to repurpose agricultural lands into appreciating tree assets. We have partnered with growingtogive.org, a 501c3 nonprofit, to create tree planting partnerships with land donors.
We have partnered with growingtogive.org, a Washington State nonprofit to create a land and tree partnership program that repurposes agricultural land into appreciating tree assets.
The program utilizes privately owned land to plant trees that would benefit both the landowner and the environment.
If you have 100 acres or more of flat, fallow farmland and would like to plant trees, then we would like to talk to you. There are no costs to enter the program. You own the land; you own the trees we plant for free and there are no restrictions; you can sell or transfer the land with the trees anytime.
