Deforestation is a massive contributor to the environmental issues our planet is facing. It threatens ecosystems, wildlife, and carbon regulation. The earth was once covered in ancient trees like coastal redwoods and giant sequoias, which were vital to maintaining a stable climate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, with over 98% of old-growth forests already lost, these vital resources are nearly extinct. That\u2019s why at Setmore, we\u2019ve been committed to donating 1% of our revenue to planting trees across the globe, including with the Archangel Ancient Tree Archive (AATA).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This commitment to making a difference and preserving the future of our planet is thanks to each and every Setmore customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who is Archangel Ancient Tree Archive?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Archangel Ancient Tree Archive<\/a> (AATA) was co-founded by David Milarch in 2008 with the vision of replanting our planet with the genetics of the world\u2019s ancient forests and key trees. These trees have stood for thousands of years and are essential to the ecosystem; despite this, they remain at risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A near-death experience in 1991 changed David\u2019s life forever, and since then, he has been on a mission to propagate the genetics of ancient trees. He envisions ‘living libraries’ of these trees, making reforestation efforts worldwide more accessible and achievable<\/p>\n\n\n\n
