WE ARE A GROUP OF CONCERNED ENVIRONMENTALISTS

When you fly, do you tick the box ‘offset my carbon footprint’? We used to.

Do you know what it means or where your money goes? We didn’t either.

That’s why we created Footprint Free.

So people like you. Like us. Could make a difference.

Footprint Free offers our members a way to invest in the future of our planet - by protecting precious rainforest.

Members can then trace the impact of their investment.

 

Humans need trees to breathe.

This isn’t about climate change.

It’s about our rainforests disappearing at a football field by the second.

Without the trees, how will we breathe?

Our rainforests are down to 14%. Imagine if our dams were down to 14%?

Without water you’ll live for about to 36 hours. Without oxygen you’ve got 4 to 5 minutes.

We need to protect our trees

Trees absorb carbon dioxide and put out oxygen.

The fewer trees there are on the planet, the more the C02 levels rise.

Globally, rainforests produce between 20-30% of our oxygen.

Tropical rainforests are the lungs of our earth.

Keeping excessive carbon dioxide out of our atmosphere must be a priority for the future of our planet

We exclusively allocate to our members the GPS coordinates of a cluster of trees their investment helped us to preserve and protect.

 
 

How are we different?

We know the location of every rainforest cluster in our portfolio that we protect.

Our members can trace the trees allocated to them with GPS coordinates.

Every cluster of protected trees is exclusively allocated to one member - they can visit their trees or even hug them.

These trees are allocated to our members. So our members can see how their investment is helping restore our rainforests.

Transparency: 100% of your money will be donated to Rainforest Conservation Foundation to Save, Restore and Preserve rainforests worldwide.

We source ethical and effective projects powered by The Rainforest Conservation Foundation.

We allocate every individual Footprint Free member, traceable and protected trees with GPS coordinates.

The trees we allocate you, are exclusively yours to visit.

WHO ARE WE?

  • TONY GELLERT

    Tony wanted to create a way for individuals to make a contribution to our planet that was traceable yet effective in saving our planet.

    His vision with Angus for Footprint Free was about asking individuals to take responsibility for their impact on the earth and starting a movement to see our planet left for our future generations.

  • ANGUS LOVE

    Angus was worried about the future of our planet and the impact this would have on his four daughters. He wanted something to find something that he could do as an individual that was tangible, affordable and would leave a lasting impact for the future generations.

    He couldn’t find anything so he created a way for individuals to join a movement.

“Now is a good time to prioritise the protection, recovery and buffering of primary ecosystems before planting trees.”
