Aspiration

🌳 Exciting Progress in Reforestation! 🌳 American Forests recently hosted a webinar in collaboration with our partner Aspiration, highlighting the remarkable strides being made in reforestation efforts under the historic REPLANT Act. Support from partners like Aspiration plays a crucial role in amplifying the impact of this transformative initiative by helping us to scale supply chain solutions to create more resilient forests for the future. The webinar, open to Aspiration account holders whose “Pay What is Fair” contributions directly support these efforts, explored the groundbreaking impacts already achieved through these vital partnerships. Most notably, that 15% of the reforestation backlog has been addressed in just three years since the act was passed! Our Chief Program Officer of the Resilient Forests Program, Brian Kittler, shared these exciting updates and engaged with attendees through a Q&A session. Together, we're making a difference for our planet! 🌍💚 Chad Hunter | Tim Newell
