Treesplease's Longleaf Valley initiative surpasses two million trees planted! The developer has announced that their debut game's eco-conscious campaign, in partnership with Eden Reforestation Projects, has resulted in the planting of over two million trees, offsetting an estimated 42,000 tonnes of CO2.
This impressive achievement is further celebrated with the launch of a new in-game Veganuary event, featuring content inspired by the official Veganuary Cookbook. Players can participate regardless of their dietary choices, earning adorable baby animal rewards.
Award-Winning Sustainability
Treesplease's commitment to environmental responsibility extends beyond the game. CEO and founder Laura Carter received a Global Gaming Citizen award at the 2024 Game Awards for her climate action work, and Longleaf Valley earned the Best Purpose Driven Game award at the 2024 Playing of the Planet Awards.
The "Play it, Plant It" model has clearly resonated with gamers, demonstrating a significant positive impact. This success highlights the growing interest in combining gaming with positive social contributions.
