Small and medium sized businesses across Ireland are being invited to celebrate Earth Day - which was Thursday of this week - by planting trees to offset their carbon footprint.
Development charity 'Self Help Africa' is seeking support from retailers, small manufacturers and other businesses for a campaign that is aiming to plant a million new trees in Africa this year.
If it reaches its goal, the new initiative will enable Irish businesses to plant trees that will remove more than 20 million tonnes of carbon from the atmosphere every year for decades to come.
