Play It Green

Play It Green was created to provide a simple and cost-effective way for people, businesses, schools and sports clubs to take the next step to a more sustainable future. 

 Everything we do is wrapped around our unique 3 step solution to climate change:

Repair the planet and rebalance footprints by planting trees.

Planting trees is taking immediate action on your carbon footprint, supports local and global sustainability targets and will leave a true legacy for future generations. 

With science behind his words, David Attenborough has said that replenishing the lost ecosystem through tree planting is critical to reducing the CO2, the main greenhouse gas, in our atmosphere.

By planting trees with Play It Green you are removing CO2 from the atmosphere, providing employment and creating life. Our tree planting partner is Eden Reforestation Projects. 

Profit with purpose

One of the worst side effects of climate change is an increase in social inequality, which is why Play It Green gives 10% of the money raised through our tree planting to good causes chosen by our community.  We also invest at least 50% of our profit into start-ups that are innovating with climate solutions through our partnership with the Green Tech Alliance.

Forest Garden

Every member of Play It Green gets their own bespoke webpage that we call a Forest Garden. This becomes your focal point in galvanising others to support the planet. It has support packs, a free net-zero framework, social media tools and much more. 

Whilst acting as your dashboard to see how many trees you have planted, the resulting CO2e reduction and who is supporting your campaigns, it also allows you to do more. You can start a campaign, share with friends and family and ask them to support your tree planting target and good cause. Every tree sold through your forest garden will appear on your tree counter. You can also showcase create competition between those that support your efforts with a leader-board feature for every campaign you run.   

Values

Play It Green was founded on the idea of doing things the right way. In a post-covid world we all need to be more conscious of our impact and we like to think that we can be conscious capitalist and use our profit to do good. With that in mind, our values are as follows:

Openness  – We wish to be one of the most open and transparent limited companies in the world. Board meeting minutes, accounts, tree purchase receipts, donation receipts and sign-ups will be shared openly. Trust is paramount.

Togetherness – Collectively we are stronger and better both internally and externally. Our community is part of global, national and local communities which will be embraced, used for good and celebrated. 

Customer Led – By seeking feedback, listening and actioning customer-led change we are more likely to succeed.
