How We are Reducing Our Carbon Footprint
We believe in bringing people together to take action to protect our planet.
That's why we partnered with One Tree Planted, a non-profit dedicated to global reforestation, to plant trees.
They raise awareness about the importance of trees and offer a sustainable solution that everyone can participate in to do something positive for the environment.
When you register for eTail, we automatically donate £1 to One Tree Planted on your behalf. But you can get involved too!
You can donate to One Tree Planted and contribute to our goal of planting over 9,000 trees.
