“The #TreesForOurPlanet initiative makes a meaningful contribution to protecting the environment.”
Our teams joined forces to go far beyond that target, planting 10,033 trees in 2021. This achievement was made possible by the collective spirit and passion for the planet that make Grünenthal unique. Now, we want to take this success to the next level and make an even bigger positive contribution to the environment by planting at least 30,000 trees in the next five years. We aim to plant 7,600 trees in 2022. Everyone in our global team is invited to get involved in group and individual activities. Together, we can make a long-lasting positive impact on the planet.
Our reforestation initiative is a visible indication of how we live up to our sustainability commitments every day – and join together to help protect our planet’s precious ecosystem for future generations.
