Ancient trees, like the coastal redwoods and giant sequoias, are some of our planet\u2019s most vital resources in the fight against climate change. Yet, these majestic trees are disappearing at an alarming rate, with over 98% of old-growth redwood forests already lost. \u00b9<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019re committed to making a difference by giving back to preserve the future of our planet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Supporting reforestation efforts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Every month, we <a href=\"https:\/\/www.answerconnect.com\/onetree\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">plant a tree<\/a> for every customer and team member.

David\u2019s mission is to clone and replant the world\u2019s most ancient and vital trees. These trees have stood for thousands of years, and are essential for maintaining healthy ecosystems, but they\u2019re at risk.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a life-changing near-death experience in 1991, David has been on a mission to propagate the genetics of ancient trees, creating \u201cliving libraries\u201d of these giants and reforesting areas worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out David Milarch\u2019s incredible story in the video below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"position: relative; width: 100%; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden;\">\n  <iframe \n    src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wW9w6eCQQkU?\" \n    style=\"position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%;\" \n    frameborder=\"0\" \n    allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" \n    allowfullscreen>\n  <\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AATA\u2019s efforts aim to reverse deforestation and ensure that future generations benefit from the ecological services these trees provide, from carbon sequestration to water cycle regulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why this matters<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Old-growth trees like the coastal redwoods once covered over <em>2 million acres<\/em> of the California coast. Today, only a fraction remains.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By cloning and replanting these trees, AATA proves that restoration is possible, helping build a healthier and more sustainable future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/answerconnect-blog\/1\/2025\/01\/Tree-planting-day_4-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13306\" srcset=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/answerconnect-blog\/1\/2025\/01\/Tree-planting-day_4-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/answerconnect-blog\/1\/2025\/01\/Tree-planting-day_4-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/answerconnect-blog\/1\/2025\/01\/Tree-planting-day_4-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/answerconnect-blog\/1\/2025\/01\/Tree-planting-day_4-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/answerconnect-blog\/1\/2025\/01\/Tree-planting-day_4-2048x1152.png 2048w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/answerconnect-blog\/1\/2025\/01\/Tree-planting-day_4-1200x675.png 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Join us in giving back<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>By <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/e98RPtpWOZg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">planting trees<\/a>, we\u2019re creating a lasting legacy for future generations and helping restore our planet.
