Sustainability Story

At tentree, our mission has always been to plant trees - 1 billion by 2030. More than that, we believe in a world where businesses are leading the change we need in this world by placing planet and people first. Our product is our platform and we've been fortunate to support the planting of over 54MM trees to date through this initiative. Even still, we believe in going further. Were it not for trees, tentree wouldn't exist. We never had an interest in creating a clothing brand if not for the platform it could eventually become. We are working to show what a planet-first business can look like. One that gives back, creates ethical & sustainable product, offsets all emissions, and manages to be in the top 10% of B-Corps globally. tentree was created by combining our desire to make an impact with our belief that environmentalism should be inspiring and inclusive through the most environmentally progressive fabrics and materials out there, all while planting ten trees. Not only are we focused on reducing its negative impact, but also on creating a positive impact. Our hope is to inspire a new generation to embrace social and environmental responsibility, ten trees at a time. We're excited to become part of the Climate Neutral community, and to reduce our footprint as a sustainable business.

What is Climate Neutrality

A state in which human activities result in no net effect on the climate system. Requires balancing of residual greenhouse gas emissions with reductions or removals. All Climate Neutral Certified brands must meet climate neutrality standards for measuring, offsetting, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions from making and delivering products and services.

This certification covers business activities and operations for the following brands :
