EarthDay 2021: For every student enrolled in this American university, a tree is planted in Africa

“The learners have to register on Tree-nation, track the tree, see where it is grown, and download a tree certificate,” she said.

“We partnered with an organisation called Tree-nation. Now we planted trees through them. We are going to be looking at different locations to plant trees around the world but we’re mainly focused on sub-Saharan Africa and the next stage will be with me because I think to plant trees in India. So far, we have planted trees primarily in Tanzania. We are considering Nigeria and we would be happy to plant in Nigeria.

“The last time I checked I am not sure whether we actually found any listings in Nigeria. When we looked, I believe we didn’t find any in Nigeria specifically. But if we do we will definitely do it because Nigeria is a big market for us. It is one of our biggest markets. On the contrary, we actually have hundreds of students from Nigeria. Probably have over a thousand students from Nigeria and we didn’t find any tree planting opportunities in Nigeria through our partners.

When asked about the challenges faced, Mr Tarzi explained that it is tasking calculating the carbon footprint of the organisation.
