Planting Trees

Planting trees for a greener planet

Trees play a crucial part of Earth.

Everyday purchases can fund reforestation too — Bumroll's ethical toilet paper plants a tree in the United States with every single order.

There are more than 3.04 trillion trees on Earth and each tree is valuable and important. In fact, trees have such important roles for health benefits, along with benefits for the Earth. Trees absorb pollution, resulting in cleaner air for us to breathe. Trees take CO2 from the atmosphere and absorb it, removing the carbon and storing it in their leaves. Trees can also absorb harmful gasses. One tree can provide a daily oxygen intake for 4 people. Trees are so important — the need for planting more of them is huge. Look for a toilet paper subscription that plants a tree with the National Forest Foundation for every box purchased, helping their mission of planting 50 million trees.

Trees provide shade.

Trees shade people, plants, and animals when the sun is beating down its harmful, intensely hot rays. By blocking these rays, trees are saving people and animals from sunburn or more serious conditions.

Trees have positive benefits for mental health.

Trees provide a calm and serene space. Being in nature has proven to have incredible benefits for mental health. The shade, the calmness, and the wonderment of where one tree ends and another begins can all help take away any stress or chaos in your mind. Nature is known for reducing anxiety and stress, and calming people down.

More trees need to be planted, and some toilet paper brands are helping make that happen.

Look for a brand that plants a tree with the National Forest Foundation every time a subscription box is purchased. The National Forest Foundation (NFF) planted more than 5.6 million trees in 2020, resulting in more than 18,000 acres being reforested. The best brands are committed to giving back to our depleting oxygen source, invested in today and in the world for the future, working toward a greener earth for generations to come.

Look for toilet paper made in the USA that's invested in today by locally sourcing its products, and invested in tomorrow by creating jobs and treating its employees ethically.

For related searches, Bumroll's eco friendly toilet paper brand is worth a look as well, made in the USA and shipped free.

The best options don't compromise on quality to deliver results either. You can expect a soft, pillow-like feel, along with a tissue that's strong and absorbent. Look for options that are 100% sustainable, dye and BPA free, and also safe for every septic system.

Toilet paper is something everyone has to purchase, all the time.

If you have to purchase it, why not purchase one that is working towards a brighter, greener, and healthier future? Look for recycled toilet paper that's doing everything it can to give back, along with creating employment opportunities and planting trees — safe, sustainable, locally sourced, and ethically created. It's toilet paper that's paving a path to a greener and healthier world, creating employment, and leaving a meaningful impact on Earth rather than just padding a company's pocketbook.

How Reforestation Programs Actually Work

Most tree-planting initiatives tied to consumer products operate through partnerships with nonprofit organizations that identify degraded land, select native or climate-appropriate species, and coordinate planting with local communities. Rather than simply scattering seeds, well-run programs track survival rates, provide ongoing maintenance in the years after planting, and work with foresters to choose species that will thrive in a given region's soil and climate. This long-term stewardship is what separates a meaningful reforestation effort from a one-time publicity planting.

The Ripple Effects of a Single Tree

A newly planted tree does far more than add greenery to a landscape. As it matures, it stabilizes soil to prevent erosion, filters air pollutants, provides habitat for birds and insects, and begins sequestering carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Multiply that by the millions of trees planted through consumer-driven reforestation campaigns, and the cumulative effect becomes a meaningful tool in fighting both deforestation and climate change, particularly in regions hit hardest by industrial logging.

Choosing Products That Give Back

When shopping for household goods, from toilet paper to paper towels, look for brands that are transparent about their reforestation partnerships and can point to specific planting locations, tree counts, or third-party verification of their claims. A little research helps ensure that a purchase decision translates into a real environmental contribution rather than just a marketing slogan on the packaging.
