Boston Short Film Festival Joins Forces with Treeplan.org to Reforest the Planet

Boston Short Film Festival has taken a significant step towards environmental responsibility by partnering with Treeplan.org to plant 200 trees. This initiative is part of the company’s commitment to sustainability and a greener future.



Rebuilding Forests, One Tree at a Time


Forests are essential to life on Earth. Trees capture carbon dioxide, produce oxygen, and provide shelter for countless species. Depending on the size and type, a single mature tree can generate enough oxygen for up to 18 people. Unfortunately, deforestation continues at an alarming rate, with humanity destroying 18 million acres of forest annually.


To counteract this loss, Boston Short Film Festival has chosen to take action. By planting 200 trees through Treeplan.org, they are contributing to reforestation efforts that help restore ecosystems, combat climate change, and promote biodiversity.

ABOUT TREEPLAN.ORG

As ambition grows, so do forests.

Every organization leaves a footprint. At Treeplan, we believe that footprint can be a positive one.

​

Founded within the creative industries, Treeplan was created to help organizations transform their growth into lasting environmental impact. What began with film festivals, cultural events, and artistic initiatives has evolved into a broader mission: helping companies, institutions, and communities create living ecological legacies.

​

We believe that every ambitious project should leave something behind that continues to grow long after the event has ended, the product has launched, or the company has reached its next milestone. Through forest creation and ecosystem restoration, Treeplan helps organizations turn their success into something tangible, lasting, and alive.

​

Every organization deserves a forest.

A company has a logo. A website. An office. A team.

But what if it also had a forest?

A place in the world that exists because of its vision, its growth, and its contribution.

​

At Treeplan, we help organizations establish and support forests as a symbol of their commitment to future generations. Whether you are a startup, a film festival, a university, a cultural organization, or an international company, we provide a framework through which ambition can create lasting ecological value.

​

From projects to forests

Treeplan works with organizations of all sizes to support reforestation and ecosystem restoration initiatives around the world.

Each participating organization becomes part of a growing community committed to one simple principle:

As ambition grows, so do forests.

 

Join the movement

Build a forest. Leave a legacy. Grow something that will outlive us all.
