The more products we buy, the more resources we take from the earth.
Instead, give something back to the earth: trees! Thanks to you donation, we can plant the Green Friday Forest.
You receive a special Green Friday statement from us. Share this via social media and help grow the Green Friday movement.
On November 25th 2022, we hosted the first ever Green Friday Forest Event. If you decided to donate your trees to the Green Friday Forest, you got the unique opportunity to plant a tree yourself.
The Green Friday movement is an initiative pioneered by Trees for All. As a foundation, our main goal is to strive towards a world with more forests. In addition, we attempt to educate audiences and create more awareness about the importance of a green and healthy planet earth. As we see it, a day like Black Friday does not fit with our vision for the present and future of the planet.
The more products we consume, the more resources we take from the earth. To facilitate the production of one T-shirt for example, 2.700 litres of water are needed. This is enough water for one person over the span of 2,5 years time. Not to mention the heaps of trash and oceans full of plastic that are created from our shopping behaviour.
In brief, Green Friday is a movement that goes against the status quo. We say ‘no’ to Black Friday deals and instead, give trees back to the earth. And because climate change is a global issue, for each tree that is planted in the Dutch Green Friday Forest, another one will be planted abroad in collaboration with our local partners. Join us and become part of the growing Green Friday movement. In this way, you’ll be able to demonstrate that you care about sustainability and that you are taking concrete steps to move towards a greener future.
