As Christmas lights twinkle and cinnamon scents fill the air, consider a gift that lasts: a greener, cleaner world. SkootEco invites you to join our mission this festive season, bringing sustainability to life through initiatives that extend far beyond the holidays.

A Forest of Change: Over 1.7 Million Trees and Growing

Imagine a forest vast enough to cover nearly 60% of Hyde Park in London. Thanks to our partners, we’ve already funded the planting of over 1.75 million trees across Brazil, Kenya, and Nepal. Each tree planted is more than just a number; it’s a powerful contribution to Mother Nature’s health—capturing carbon, enriching biodiversity, and rebuilding communities and ecosystems.

Join the Green Festive Spirit

This Christmas, we’re inviting businesses and individuals to help drive a greener future. Every receipt, every stay, every meal, every drink, every night out, every gift, and every invoice can become an opportunity for positive environmental change.

All our Christmas festivities can be part of a greener movement.

The Power of Mangroves: Nature’s Superheroes

Not all trees fight climate change equally. Mangroves, unsung coastal heroes, sequester up to five times more carbon than Northern Hemisphere trees and store up to five times more carbon than rainforests, making them invaluable in climate defence. By supporting SkootEco’s mangrove initiatives in Kenya, your business can foster these natural fortresses that protect coastlines, stabilise ecosystems, and absorb atmospheric carbon, locking it into the soil so that even when they die, the carbon isn’t released.

Beyond Trees: SkootEco’s Holistic Approach to Sustainability

At SkootEco, we tackle environmental challenges from every angle, supporting our planet in ways that extend far beyond tree planting:

Ocean Plastic Recovery

Our teams have prevented over 190,000 ocean-bound plastic items from polluting the seas. With every bottle recovered, you’re helping protect marine life and preserve our oceans.

Carbon Countering

We’ve countered over 200,000 tonnes of CO₂e through high-quality humanitarian projects and are on track to remove 350,000 tonnes by 2026. That’s the equivalent of taking over 43,478 cars off the road for a year!

Community Empowerment

Our projects have created 25,000 workdays for some of the world’s poorest communities. By supporting SkootEco, you’re helping not just the environment but also livelihoods globally.

Be a Force for Good This Christmas

We can all easily give the gift of sustainability this holiday season, from as little as £1. Whether you’re an individual, a café, hotel, or restaurant, SkootEco has tailored solutions for integrating eco-friendly practices into your model:

Eco-Dining - Add a small “Eco-Contribution” to each bill, allowing diners to offset the carbon footprint of their meal with ease.

Eco-Events - Make Christmas parties and New Year’s celebrations memorable by hosting carbon-positive events that your guests will love.

Eco-Stays - Offer hotel guests the option to plant a tree instead of requesting daily room cleaning. It’s a simple, effective way to enhance their experience while helping the planet.

Eco-Invoices - For every invoice you send out in November and December, you can add just £1 to do good.

Eco-Staff - Why not plant a tree for every employee as a thank you?

Eco-You - Simply scan the QR code to plant a tree for £1.

The Time to Act is Now

This Christmas, choose to make a difference. Together with SkootEco, we can plant more trees, recover more plastic, and counter more carbon. Let’s make 2025 the year sustainability became more than a buzzword—it became a way of life.
