Buying trees costs money, but by planting trees, you indirectly save on high costs resulting from climate change. By buying a tree, you become more aware of your own consumption behavior and will be more likely to choose a sustainable lifestyle. Compensation through tree planting and the choice for less environmentally damaging activities will ensure that we spend less taxpayer money on environmental protection measures.
