At Swype®, we believe that building a better world means doing more than great client work. Since partnering with Ecologi in 2024, we’ve been quietly planting trees and funding carbon avoidance projects with every new job we take on.
Now, half a year in, we’re taking a moment to reflect on the impact we’ve made.
67 Trees Planted Across 5 Global Projects
In our first six months, we’ve helped fund the planting of 67 trees. These trees are being planted across a number of reforestation projects, including:
• Forest restoration in Kenya, where the majority of our support has gone so far
• Mangrove planting efforts in Madagascar
• Community-led forest gardens in Uganda
• Restoration projects in regions such as Ethiopia
Each tree plays a part in restoring natural ecosystems, supporting biodiversity, and capturing carbon to help reduce long-term environmental impact.
Carbon Avoidance: Tackling Emissions at the Source
Alongside reforestation, we’ve also supported four verified carbon avoidance projects, which together have prevented over 5 tonnes of CO₂ emissions from entering the atmosphere.
These projects include:
• Protecting the Matavén forest in Colombia
• Avoiding methane emissions from landfills in Brazil
• Restoring and conserving peatlands in Indonesia
• Repairing water boreholes in Eritrea to reduce fuel use
These efforts help tackle emissions at the source, reducing reliance on fossil fuels and protecting some of the world’s most at-risk environments.
Why We Joined Ecologi
We know that running an agency comes with a footprint. Our goal isn’t to offset everything just yet, but to take responsibility where we can. By contributing to trusted environmental projects through Ecologi, we’re doing our bit to support change beyond our day-to-day work.
For us, it’s simple. One new project, one tree planted.
Follow Our Progress
Our Ecologi profile shows exactly where our contributions are going. It includes live stats, project breakdowns and impact maps, so you can see the real change taking place.
We’ll continue to share updates on our progress and aim to grow our contribution as Swype® grows.
Looking Ahead
This is just the beginning. Sustainability isn’t a side project for us. It’s part of how we work. Whether you’re a new client or a long-time partner, know that working with us means you’re also helping contribute to something bigger.
