FindaHireCar.com, the car hire comparison website, is pleased to report that Enterprise, one of the key car rental partners in our network of 550 leading car rental suppliers, is the first in the travel industry to launch a social media campaign to match consumer tree planting pledges.
This year The Enterprise Rent-A-Car Foundation will fund the addition of one million trees to national forests in countries where Enterprise operates as part of the 50 Million Tree Pledge. To celebrate this sixth round of tree plantings, and the sixth millionth tree planted through the Enterprise Rent-A-Car program, Enterprise Facebook fans can pledge to plant a tree. Enterprise will then match that pledge by planting another tree (up to 50,000), for a total of an additional 100,000 trees to be planted as part of this year’s effort.
“The 50 Million Tree Pledge is not about offsetting emissions, it’s about conservation,” said Lee Broughton, director of sustainability at Enterprise Holdings. “As a family-owned company, we are aware of the importance in protecting and enhancing the sustainability of the communities in which we live and work. Our conservation efforts go deeper than planting trees.”
“This year’s projects were selected to help rebuild and preserve several forests that are essential to local water sources,”said Broughton. “The planting of our six millionth tree this year will be just one more down payment on our long-term commitment to this issue.”
“Enterprise’s 50-year, 50-million-tree commitment is essential to our ability to keep forests healthy by planting trees,” said John Rosenow, founder and chief executive of the Arbor Day Foundation. “The need to replant our forests is vitally important because of damage from insects, disease and unprecedented wildfires. Through the next 44 years, thanks to the vision and commitment of Enterprise, we will plant another 44 million trees where they will best serve people, our environment and water resources for generations to come.”
St. Louis-based Enterprise Holdings owns and operates the Enterprise Rent-A-Car brand.
