Earth Month acts as an opportunity to educate employees and customers about environmental issues and promote a culture of sustainability.

With more people working desk-bound jobs, increasing activity has become crucial for overall health and well-being. We need to avoid being sedentary, but it can be hard to find time for even small amounts of exercise. Luckily, walking is one of the most low-impact ways to avoid a sedentary lifestyle. According to the CDC and others, just 5000 steps a day might be all it takes to avoid the effects of too much sitting and resting. While one recommendation is to aim for at least

Throughout October, E.ON and Nottingham Forest FC partnered with Treekly to give people a tree every time they hit a daily 5000 step goal. By joining the sponsored E.ON group on the Treekly app, people were rewarded for their daily walks with a real mangrove tree, at our reforestation project in Kenya. Over 2,700 fans and customers took part, planting a total of 37,170 trees. Over the next twenty five years, the mangrove trees planted will sequester an estimated 11,500 tonnes

We’ve partnered with E.ON and Nottingham Forest FC to help turn footsteps into forests. Throughout the month of October, you can plant a tree every single day that you hit your 5000 step goal. Just tap the E.ON + Nottingham Forest banner on the home page of the app, and join the group. Now every day you hit your steps target, E.ON will plant another tree on your behalf.

Now more than ever we must consider the environmental impact of our actions. Everything from the clothes we buy to the food we eat influences our environment, with some behaviours being more harmful than others. It is easy to assume individual actions have little to no impact on the natural world, however, the concept of the Anthropocene suggests otherwise. Has our impact on the Earth been so great that we’ve changed the natural rhythms of the Earth forever? Epochs are a geol

It’s fair to say that most of us know that walking is good for us. It helps improve stamina, burn calories, and can reduce stress. But walking has many other benefits which are less well known. Even 5000 steps a day , an entirely achievable target, can make a huge impact on your health. That's only about half an hour of walking to reduce all kinds of disease risk. The Greek physician Hippocrates, often referred to as the father of western medicine, once said “Walking is man’s

March 21st marks the International Day of Forests. First declared in 2012, the day celebrates and raises awareness of the importance of the world’s forests. In preparation, we wanted to share the significance of forests. Globally, over 1.6 million people and over 2000 indigenous cultures depend on forests for the goods and services they provide. Covering around 30% of the Earth’s land area, forests are home to 80% of all terrestrial species. Forests also have had spiritual si

Deforestation is a major cause of concern and is happening at an alarming rate. To put it in perspective, there are only around half the number of trees left on the planet compared to when humans first evolved. Also, between 1990 and 2016 an area of forests larger than South Africa was lost according to the World Bank. So, we know deforestation is happening, but why is it happening? Five main causes of deforestation are listed below. 1. Animal Agriculture As the global dema
