Every Day Is Earth Day At Competition Subaru

The Subaru Love Promise is our vision to show love and respect to all people at every interaction with Subaru. Together with our retailers, we are dedicated to making the world a better place. Loving the environment means more than loving the great outdoors – it means working to preserve it. Competition Subaru of Smithtown is proud to announce that with every vehicle purchased or leased at our dealership we will be planting a tree as a thank you in partnership with One Tree Planted.

One Tree Planted

One Tree Planted is a non-profit environmental charity that focuses on global reforestation. One Tree Planted is on a mission to make it easier for individuals and businesses to give back to the environment, create a healthier climate, protect biodiversity, and help reforestation all around the world – all by planting trees!

ONE DOLLAR. ONE TREE.

One Tree Planted began its mission in 2014 and since then, they have more than doubled the number of trees planted year over year.

By teaming up with reforestation partners in North America, South America, Asia, and Africa, they are able to plant trees to restore forests after fires and floods, create jobs, build communities, and protect habitat for biodiversity. In 2019, One Tree Planted was able to get 4 million trees in the ground!

One Tree Planted plant trees in North America, Latin America, Asia, Africa, Europe, and the Pacific. Learn more about where they plant here.

Why Planting Trees Is Important

Now you may be wondering... why trees? One Tree Planted explains why trees are so vital and important for the environment. Trees help clean the air we breathe, filter the water we drink and provide habitat to over 80% of the world's terrestrial biodiversity. They also provide jobs to over 1.6 billion people, absorb harmful carbon from the atmosphere, and are key ingredients in 25% of all medicines.

How To Help The Earth

There are so many ways individuals around the world can join the mission for the reforestation, conservation, and protection of forests around the world. Every dollar plants one tree. Individuals can donate, create a fundraiser, or even join a community to help make a difference.
