Wondering how a less expensive initiative could yield positive green ROI? Here’s your quick guide to starting your green initiatives in your company – 

  1. Plant trees on employees’ birthdays, farewell, retirement, etc to engage with them and honor them with our eTreeCertificate (like Reserve Bank of India, Ernst & Young, DSM, SBI Life, YES Bank, Tata Teleservices, Rallis India, Luthra & Luthra, Conde Nast, Times NOW, Logica, Genpact, ISS, Loop Mobile, CHEP Equipment Pooling, Wolters Kluwer/Medknow, Larsen & Toubro, Citi, Central Bank Of India, Sundaram BNP Paribas, Guavus, Knight Frank, Tata Motors, Tata Capital, Aakit, EOS, Aricent, Datamatics, etc)

  11. Offer a Payroll Program to employees, with no cost to the company, to plant a grove of 10 trees a month. The employees can “bank” their trees in their accounts and send out tree-dedication e-certificates with their personal message to friends on birthdays, anniversaries, New Year, etc. The company can share in this cost, if it so desires, and have its logo put on the certificate. This would invite employee participation, reach out to potential customers through employees’ greetings, contribute to CSR, and visibly enhance the company’s green image.
