The ABF forest

After a year where dramatic circumstances have impacted all of us, we would like to end with a green gesture. We planted a forest!

A forest. Got it.

The ABF forest consists of 200 Moringa trees and was planted in collaboration with Treedom. The trees were planted in Kenya, where they will be taken care of by local farmers. These Moringa trees are known for a combination of healing properties and highly nutritious leaves. Furthermore, the forest will absorb approximately 40,000kg worth of carbon-dioxide over the course of ten years.

Capture CO2

By planting the Moringa tree we will offset

kg of CO2

Equal to fill up 219 trucks

CO2 compensation period

10 years

** The tree will continue to absorb CO2 even after the tenth year. Therefore this is a prudent estimate
