Show HN: Check how many trees you need to offset your carbon footprint

Hacker News - Wed, 05/07/2025 - 8:08am

Hi everyone!

Last year I posted about my environmental project, but then it didn’t get much attention here. Now, as we’ve made some progress and improved our website a bit using users’ feedback, there is an occasion to give it another chance!

This time I’d like to focus on the feature that allows you to check how many trees are really needed to be planted to offset one’s carbon footprint, based on emissions per capita. It includes trees’ survivability rate, as not every seedling will get a chance to mature. It is often an overlooked factor.

You can also start gradually planting a whole forest and track your impact by choosing your planting plan. As for planting, we restore broadleaf forests with environmental purposes and not industrial plantations.

Since last year, several municipalities have expressed interest in partnering with us, pledging enough land for over 10 million trees for our project, and there is a potential for much more! We’ve also got some subscribers from across the US and the EU. Now we are looking to bring in more people to plant with us, to make it happen in a reasonable timeframe, so I’d immensely appreciate if you decide to join and spread the word!

We’ll be also further developing our app and website.
