Treeigami Bonsai Environmental Impact
Treeigami is dedicated to a net zero environmental impact. We do care about the earth and just because our products are produced with plastics, does not mean we can't positively impact the environment. We do this a variety of ways.
1. We reuse, sell or recycle nearly all of our waste.
- We donate some items (spools, plastic purge, support) to artists and schools.
- We recycle our cardboard and plastic bags through local recycling.
- We recycle plastic waste that can not be reused or recycled locally at a special plastic recycling facility in St. Loise when we are in the area for bonsai shows. This is turned back into usable plastic that can be resold.
2. We have been a Greenspark partner since March of 2024. With EVERY order we receive, we plant Two Trees, clean up Four Plastic Bottles from our oceans and offset Ten Kilograms of Carbon Emissions. While this may seem insignificant, over the coarse of days, weeks and years this will add up to forests of trees, megatons of carbon emissions offset and football fields of plastic bottles removed from the environment. You can check our contribution Here!
3. We are working on a program that we will purchase plastic offset credits for every pound of plastic filament we purchase. This means that for every pound of filament we will buy, an equal amount of plastic is removed from the environment.
If we all just do a little to make the world a better place, perhaps someday it will be.
