In Trees we Trust

Kudo's Tree Planting Program has gotten even better!

When it comes to the environment, us at Wireless NRG think that it's imperative to try to give more to the Earth than take. That is one of the reasons we created the Kudo Case, the only patented and Apple licensed case for the iPad equipped with Solar Panels, to provide charge on the go for your iPad and other USB devices.

Originally, we initiated our Tree Planting Program with the idea of having a tree planted for every case sold after users register to join in. Alas, sales were far more than registrations, so we had to come up with an idea to alleviate consumers of the need to register, to have a tree planted in their name. This brings us to the Arbor Day Foundation.

Just recently, we upgraded our relationship with the Arbor Day Foundation to a direct Corporate Partnership. With this partnership there is no need for consumers to register for a tree to be planted! This saves them time and helps us provide the environment with more energy from the trees! Our goal is to minimize our Carbon Footprint, if you'd like, you can view a Carbon Footprint Calculator. Each case in conjunction with the tree planted in the owner's name does more for the Earth than one would think.

Want to know exactly how large of an impact the Tree Planting Program has? Let's do some math.

A healthy and mature tree can absorb an average of 48 pounds of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) per year, while producing 260 pounds of oxygen (O2) during that same period, which is enough to support two people, according to the Colorado Tree Coalition. Healthy trees can also act as living filters with rain water, providing us with clean and safe water.  In fact, according to the US Forest Service, 100 mature trees can collect and store approximately 139,000 gallons of rainwater per year!

 Those are impressive  numbers, and it gets only more impressive when you add in the direct effect the Kudo Case has on the environment! For example, for every 1,000 Kudos used for 1 year the need for 9,000 lbs of coal used to produce energy is terminated. Each ton of coal creates about 2.86 tons of carbon dioxide, so those same thousand Kudos help to keep 7.15 tons per year of CO2 out of the atmosphere. Your Kudo alone will eliminate 14.1 lbs of CO2 by NOT burning that amount of coal described above, it will help to absorb another 48 lbs per year with the tree we plant for you, and produce 260 lbs of oxygen from that very same tree.What's better than that?
