Oxygen for the Future: Amsterdam Independent Film Festival Plants 300 Trees with Treeplan.org

The Amsterdam Independent Film Festival has made a notable move towards environmental responsibility by collaborating with Treeplan.org to plant 300 trees. This effort is part of the organization's dedication 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, Amsterdam Independent Film Festival has chosen to take action. By planting 300 trees through Treeplan.org, they are contributing to reforestation efforts that help restore ecosystems, combat climate change, and promote biodiversity.


About Amsterdam Independent Film Festival


The glitz and glamour of showbusiness in the mainstream film festival circuit can sometimes detract from the true purpose of the event — the celebration of creative film-making. While the red carpets, the champagne parties, and the high admission prices may be good for grabbing headlines and driving profits, they may also prevent the dissemination of art to the audience.

 

At the Amsterdam Independent Film Festival, we focus on film. The festival will also bring independent artistic visions to an audience that demands a more fulfilling experience than the latest Hollywood fare.In Amsterdam’s LAB111 — a cult cinema located in a former anatomical pathology hospital — we’ll be screening selections of remarkable independent films from all over the world free of charge, giving film-makers the widest possible exposure and freedom from commercial constraints.

​


Treeplan.org is dedicated to reversing deforestation by working with individuals, businesses, and organizations to plant trees and restore forests. Their mission is to ensure that future generations have access to clean air, thriving ecosystems, and sustainable resources.


Through innovative partnerships, Treeplan.org merges environmental, social, and commercial objectives, enabling businesses to make a real impact while maintaining their goals. By joining forces with Treeplan.org, companies like Amsterdam Independent Film Festival play an active role in securing a healthier planet for future generations.

Did you know: Trees are amazing organisms. Every tree captures carbon dioxide and generates oxygen for other people, plants, and animals on earth. Depending on the size and type of tree, a single mature tree can produce enough oxygen for up to 18 people!

Did you know: humanity destroys 18 million acres of forest every year. That’s billions of trees that are being wiped out year-after-year for building materials, paper manufacture, or to make room for cattle grazing or infrastructure development. At Tree Plan, we want to turn that around. It’s our goal to be part of the solution, ensuring that healthy forests and abundant clean air are available for the coming generations.

Tree Plan works with individuals, businesses and organizations, empowering them to reforest the planet and reconnect with nature while still realizing their business goals.
