Mokugift, to fight climate change, launches tree planting campaign with MobileBroadbandSupermarket.co.uk

MOBILE connectivity specialists MobileBroadbandSupermaket.co.uk have today announced that they have partnered with mokugift to plant a tree for every sale made through the site. 

Andy Gott, Managing Director of MobileBroadbandSupermarket.co.uk, said,
“We considered ways we could be proactive about using our business to promote our commitment to sustainability – so tree planting really appealed to us. We’re delighted to be partnering with mokugift as they are an official partner of the United Nations Environment Programme’s Billion Tree Campaign.”

“We love technology, but we’re all active outdoor types too, and if we’re not squeezing in a long weekend surfing in North Wales, or cycling in the Pennines, we’re taking a well earned break for a snowboarding trip to the Alps.”

“There’s nothing we love more than being involved with, and thoroughly enjoying, the planet on which we live, and it’s very important to us that we do what we can to help keep it healthy.”

“At mobilebroadbandsupermarket.co.uk, we view technology as a potential means to reduce our impact on the planet – we can reduce international travel and therefore our carbon emissions using tele-conferencing, video-conferencing and webinars. And, of course this is all vastly enhanced by the ability to use your dongle and connect from anywhere.”

Mokugift plant trees in tropical zones as they have been proven to be the most beneficial to the fight against global warming. The trees they plant help reduce climate change and global warming by absorbing the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide. An average tree inhales 26 lbs of carbon dioxide per year and exhales enough Oxygen for a family of four for a year. Trees also reflect solar radiation back into space by evaporating water back into the atmosphere to increase cloudiness.

Colorado Rocky Mountain School and Aspen Ski Company Partner on Solar Array

Last summer saw the official ribbon-cutting ceremony and debut of the Colorado Rocky Mountain School and Aspen Ski Company solar-electric array. Colorado Governor Bill Ritter and Aspen Ski Company owner Jim Crown were present for this grand-opening ceremony, in addition to many other key leaders statewide. This one-half acre, 147kw array situated on CRMS land is among the largest of its kind in Western Colorado and reinforces Carbondale’s position as solar-energy leader. CRMS will utilize the array to power the Jossman academic building and the rest of the electricity will be fed into the power grid, with CRMS purchasing power for the next 20 years at a fixed rate. CRMS has been committed to exploring solar energy since the mid ’70s and will utilize the new array as a teaching tool, in addition to following the energy-production data online.

This partnership puts CRMS at the forefront of independent schools in terms of commitment and action towards creating a more sustainable future. For more information contact lraleigh@crms.org or go to www.crms.org
