The 2023 Queensland Planting Event takes a practical action on restoring the environment, allowing their eco-friendly supporters to be at the front of the climate change battlefield.

The total output included the planting of nearly 2,000 native trees that will grow into a forest that removes carbon, restores biodiversity, and provides habitat to the local wildlife.

Marketing & Communications Director of Global GreenTag International Debra Robertson said: "We speak from the heart when we say that restoring nature is at the core of Global GreenTag's ethos."

"This was such a brilliant initiative to participate in. Businesses from all over South-East Queensland participated. We hope that events like this raise greater awareness about the importance of preserving our biodiversity and ecosystems, amongst the general public and spread to more people putting their hands up to re-vegetate and bring our forests back."

Greenfleet is a leading not-for-profit environmental organisation on a mission to protect the climate by restoring forests. Since 1997, Greenfleet has planted 10 million trees in over 500 forests across Australia and New Zealand. These forests will capture 4.4 million tonnes of CO2-e over their lifetime.

Global GreenTag's Business Development Director Brett Hazlett said: "Hours of blood, sweat and tears and I am glad that together we could accomplish this beautiful project. Greenfleet are helping to change the game so we have a healthier future by valuing the rights of the Earth. This is very close to the heart of GreenTag. "
