Puurs-Sint-Amands – Fedrus employees’ plant 1.600 trees right away
To celebrate its 20th anniversary, Fedrus International gave its employees a sustainable and lasting gift. A hectare of climate-resilient forest to thank them for their commitment and contribution to Fedrus’ sustainable development. Near the headquarters, Fedrus employees planted 1,600 trees in the Branstbos (Bornem, Belgium) on 1 December 2022, one for each employee.
1 hectare of forest in Europe can offset about 12 tonnes of CO2. Besides CO2 offsetting, a new forest is valuable for a range of United Nations sustainable development goals, not only directly (such as Climate Action and Living on Land), but also indirectly (Good Health & Wellbeing).
