Treesplease's Longleaf Valley initiative has achieved a remarkable milestone: players have collectively planted over two million trees in the real world! This success, in partnership with the Eden Reforestation Project, represents a significant CO2 offset of approximately 42,000 tonnes.
The positive impact extends beyond tree planting. Treesplease is launching a new in-game event for 2025, inspired by Veganuary and its cookbook, offering players fresh content and adorable baby animal rewards. Participation is open to everyone, regardless of dietary preferences.
