The Forest
As a company in the yoga industry, we are very sensitive to our carbon footprint and want to make a positive contribution to solving the climate crisis. We concretize this by being a member of "Leaders for Climate Action " and adhering to the "Sustainability Clause". That is, we are committed to measuring our CO2 emissions and reducing them through reduction and compensation measures. Our contribution: 1) Yoga provides us with guidance to help people act more sustainably. The ethical principles of yoga (yamas) teach us that all actions have consequences and that we cannot avoid the consequences of our actions. The more people who practice yoga and take this to heart, the better for the environment.2) Our vegan deli concept is to help more people eat vegan to further reduce greenhouse emissions. 3) 1% of the sales of our online store go to the "Balance Yoga Treedom Forest". With every purchase, our customers make an active contribution to our reforestation project and to environmental protection. With this initiative, we want to actively contribute to the improvement of the world in which we live and breathe.
Impact
The trees we plant have big ambitions: to bring benefits not only to the environment, but also to the people who live in it. That's why we work with NGOs and local communities to select the right tree for the right place and the right purpose. That’s why we think about the medium and long term, because we’re not content with simply planting trees: we want to see them grow.
The trees in the forest will absorb:
22.85 t* of CO₂
