Our tree planting scheme

Here at VAT Loans our sister company, WestWon Limited, is continuing to expand their green agenda. They have teamed up with a company called Ecologi. They plant trees on behalf of over 11,000 companies and also offset carbon in order to help fight climate change. WestWon does this by calculating our employees emissions. Therefore they plant trees or funding climate projects that will neutralise those emissions.

Just like our sister company, we will be planting a tree for every month of your lease agreement with us. For example, for a 5 year agreement, that’s 60 months, and 60 trees planted! We can’t wait to help our climate further. As well as this we will ensure the safety of our future planet.

If you would like to join us on our journey and help contribute, then please reach out and contact us. You can alternatively view the virtual WestWon woodland here.

How can I view my contribution

For now, we will be known as a ‘climate positive workforce’. This means we are simply positively contributing to the environment. When we have offset our carbon for our employees we will be known as a carbon neutral company. Only when this has been achieved, can we look at our main future goal of becoming a climate negative company. This will take longer however, due to the rarity and expense of carbon removal credits.

Ecologi’s projects are operated by Eden Reforestation Projects. Their mission is to give reforestation employment opportunities to villagers in need, and ensure that they are paid fairly. So, not only are they dedicated to protecting the planet, but they change the lives of those local to the tree planting projects for the better.
