This year's World Environment Day theme is "land restoration, desertification and drought resilience" making it the perfect time to announce our new initiative to support reforestation and our partnership with Treeapp.

As of May 2024, Red Stag have been supporting a tree planting initiative to reduce global carbon emissions, revive aquatic ecosystems and reduce flood risks. Our reforestation campaign focuses on Mangrove trees in the wetlands of Indonesia, where Mangrove forests have seen a depletion of 40%.

The Mangrove trees we plant are never harvested, hopefully they will outlive us all.

Red Stag plant a tree for every order placed on our website. Following the imminent launch of our new website, customers will be able to see how many trees they have planted alongside a running total of the trees contributed to this initiative through buying with Red Stag.

Why Mangrove Trees?

• One Mangrove tree removes 308kg (0.3 tonnes) of CO2 from the atmosphere over its growth life, which is 12.3kg per year.
• The roots of Mangrove trees support the SDG goal to provide shelter for sea life
• Mangrove forests act as the first line of defence against tsunami and flood risks.
• Planting Mangroves provides work opportunities for local communities.
