This year, Hanley Energy is taking the next step in our sustainability journey and have launched a new initiative to protect, restore and replenish rural forests in the communities we proudly serve.
As part of our ongoing commitment to operate our business in a way that is beneficial to the environment, Hanley Energy is focused on quality, that endures and responsible sourcing. We are fully committed to using local eco-systems and suppliers within the business communities that surround our global office locations. Even our shipping crates are crafted from wood because of their durable and renewable entities. In fact, 85% of the materials currently utilized at Hanley Energy are responsibly sourced and it is envisaged that this figure will reach 100% by the end of 2021. We are also keen supporters of bio-diversity and projects that underpin habitat restoration and enjoy keeping our own apiary alongside local beekeepers and growers in Loudoun County.
To deepen this commitment, Hanley Energy is setting a new goal to plant 250,000 trees by end of 2025 and, we invite you to follow us on this exciting journey. For every global delivery made, we will plant a tree in that local area in partnership with One Tree Planted.
We are proud to partner with One Tree Planted, one of the largest and most recognized tree planting organizations in North America and around the world. This partnership will help to create a healthier climate, protect bio-diversity and restore our forests in the areas of greatest need in the U.S. and around the world.
Our initial pilot project will be in Oregon State in the weeks ahead – home to Hanley Energy LLC on the west coast since last September. The 2020 Oregon wildfire season was one of the most destructive on record, destroying over one million acres; with that, in mind, we are looking forward to playing our part in a meaningful way.
Here’s to working together, reducing our ecological footprint and making a positive impact.
