Newton Plants 697 Trees Through Tree Planting Partnership
Written by Warren Muschialli
We are over the moon to have contributed to the planting an amazing 697 trees as part of Tsurumi’s Tree Planting Project!
The fantastic initiative from the Japanese pump manufacturer plants a tree for every Tsurumi Pump sold in 2024. Overall, the project aims to plant 10,000 trees both in the UK and overseas during 2024, helping to protect the planet and also remove over 5.5 tonnes of CO2e (carbon dioxide equivalent) from the atmosphere over time.
To put this into context, it is the equivalent of saving 8.2 million kilowatt-hours of electricity, which is roughly the amount used by 750 homes in an entire year!
Protecting our Planet
Trees are one of nature’s greatest weapons in combating climate change as they absorb greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide (CO2) into their trunks, branches, and leaves, before releasing clean and breathable oxygen back into our atmosphere.
Trees also play a vital role in preventing flooding, reducing localised temperature changes, and providing essential habitats for wildlife. As a result, they are crucial for safeguarding the planet’s ecosystems.
Carma & Green Task Force
To ensure that no-one is just using the scheme as way of ‘green washing’, Tsurumi have partnered with the B-Corp certified environmental company Carma, who will plant the trees.
Furthermore, Tsurumi’s trees will also aid in the rehabilitation and support of armed forces veterans, as well as combating climate change. This is thanks to the Green Task Force, a charity founded to take action against global warming while also creating meaningful reemployment opportunities for our veterans, and who plant trees for Carma.
So far, Green Task Force has planted an amazing 3 million trees, providing nature-based therapy to veterans in order to have a positive impact on their overall mental health.
Newton Waterproofing Recycling Service
We are thrilled to have contributed to another project which aligns with our sustainability initiatives.
These initiatives include our Recycling Service, a closed-loop recycling scheme between Newton and our Specialist Contractors. The services collect off-cuts of HDPE waterproofing membrane, as well as plastic tubs and metal containers, for reprocessing, recycling and reuse within the construction industry. Once the waste has been collected, it is shredded into small chips, which are later used to make new construction materials.
Thanks to our specialist contractors and our Recycling Service, since 2017 we have been able to:
Recycle 24.75 tonnes of plastic
Avoid 28.44 tonnes of CO2 emissions from being released
Collect over 1,100 bags of recycling
By actively supporting Tsurumi’s Tree Planting Project, and successfully recycling waste construction materials, we hope to play our small part in creating a safer, healthier, planet for the future, creating a healthier ecosystem that will benefit the world for years to come.
As of November 2024, the project is heading steadily towards its target, with 8,600+ trees planted across England, Madagascar, Mozambique, and Kenya.
We are looking forward to seeing how the project continues to progress, and we thank Tsurumi for the opportunity to continue to contribute to their fantastic new initiative!
