Treejitsu

The marketing hype

At Treejitsu, we’re not just planting trees; we’re throwing carbon into a chokehold 🌿💪

Our mission is clear: offsetting carbon emissions, one tree at a time. Whether you’re a climate-conscious individual or a forward-thinking business, we’ve got your back.

Planting Trees

For every ton of carbon dioxide you emit, we’ll plant a tree. These aren’t just any trees - they’re our carbon warriors. They’ll absorb CO₂, fight deforestation, and create a greener world.

Clean Air Dojo

The world is our dojo. It's where you become a carbon ninja. Buy a tree join our journey, learn about sustainable practices, and earn your black belt in green consciousness.

Carbon Fight

We’re not afraid of a challenge. Carbon emissions, meet our forest. It’s a battle royale where trees emerge victorious.

The problem

In Europe, the average annual carbon footprint is equivalent to about eight tonnes of CO₂ per person (European Environment Agency, 2023).Some European countries have emissions not far from the global average: In 2017 emissions in Portugal were 5.3 tonnes; 5.5 tonnes in France; and 5.8 tonnes per person in the UK (Global Carbon Atlas, 2023).On the other hand, the average American was responsible for emitting 14.4 metric tons of carbon dioxide (tCO₂) in 2022 (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 2023).This is one of the highest rates in the world, and it's significantly more than three times the global average per capita CO₂ emissions (World Bank, 2023).

The Solution

Trees absorb carbon dioxide (CO₂) from the air through a process called photosynthesis and fuel its growth (MIT Climate Portal, 2024; USDA, 2015).The carbon is stored in the tree's fibers, roots, and trunk, helping to reduce the negative effects of CO₂ on our environment (USDA, 2015; U.S. Forest Service, 2021).A mature tree can absorb more than 48 pounds (approximately 21.77 kilograms) of CO₂ from the atmosphere in a year (One Tree Planted, 2023; USDA, 2015; U.S. Forest Service, 2021).Over a lifetime of 100 years, one tree could absorb around one tonne of CO2 (Viessmann UK, n.d.).

In short...
The average European would need to plant 8 trees per year and leave them for 100 years, just to offset 1 years CO₂ emissions.The average person from the US would need to plant 14 trees.
