While Salesforce is more than halfway to its goal \u2014 funding 52 million trees to date \u2014 the report confirmed the loss of an estimated 10% of trees funded, largely due to insufficient site planning and extreme weather.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why it matters: <\/strong>Independent evaluations like the one Salesforce underwent are critical for driving accountability and for adapting reforestation and conservation strategies over time to maximize positive impact. Nature is in constant flux, and trees are part of dynamic ecosystems that are impacted by weather events, animals, and human activities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About the audit:<\/strong> ERM conducted the evaluation by leveraging a combination of technology and field visits. They analyzed extensive drone footage from project sites and thousands of satellite images of the highest available non-military resolution for projects where results may have been inconclusive. They then deployed field teams to four locations where more in-depth data was needed. The team conducted interviews with project partners and stakeholders about the progress of forest projects, including the impact on the community, biodiversity, and the climate.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow\" data-effect=\"slide\"><div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_container swiper-container\"><ul class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_swiper-wrapper swiper-wrapper\"><li class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_slide swiper-slide\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_image wp-image-78967\" data-id=\"78967\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/06\/IMG_2127_8dd47c.jpg?w=1024\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_slide swiper-slide\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_image wp-image-78969\" data-id=\"78969\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/06\/IMG_2119_50ed97.jpg?w=1024\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_slide swiper-slide\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_image wp-image-78971\" data-id=\"78971\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/06\/DSC_0707_6bad45.jpg?w=1024\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_slide swiper-slide\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_image wp-image-78972\" data-id=\"78972\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/06\/DSC_0643_f25549.jpg?w=683\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_slide swiper-slide\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_image wp-image-78973\" data-id=\"78973\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/06\/DSC_0332_0856a9.jpg?w=1024\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_slide swiper-slide\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_image wp-image-78974\" data-id=\"78974\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/06\/DSC_0293_2606ea.jpg?w=1024\"\/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><a class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_button-prev swiper-button-prev swiper-button-white\" role=\"button\"><\/a><a class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_button-next swiper-button-next swiper-button-white\" role=\"button\"><\/a><a aria-label=\"Pause Slideshow\" class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_button-pause\" role=\"button\"><\/a><div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_pagination swiper-pagination swiper-pagination-white\"><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dive deeper: <\/strong>The audit uncovered several best practices as part of this work, many of which Salesforce has leveraged since the program&#8217;s launch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Incorporate the local community. <\/strong>When Salesforce first made the commitment to fund 100 million trees, it published a <a href=\"https:\/\/trees.salesforce.com\/home\/?d=cta-body-promo-8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">tree counter<\/a> to hold itself accountable and track progress against its goal. But the number of trees funded is only one piece of the story. Forest restoration is most successful where it increases biodiversity and benefits people. In Uganda, for example, two local community members planted 3,000 trees as part of a restoration project. Once the trees mature, they can use the income from selling branches for firewood. They plan to re-invest in growing more trees to continue restoring natural habitat, creating ecological corridors, and securing a steady source of income in the future. The result is enduring community support, benefiting both nature and people.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Adopt a landscape approach. <\/strong>Forest ecosystems do not exist in isolation. They are usually part of a large socio-economic and ecological landscape. Large-scale tree planting alone cannot address the urgent effects of climate change and its impact on people around the world. Any reforestation efforts must be made with the full context of any given landscape \u2014 the right species, in the right place, at the right time. In one region, the evaluation found that tree mortality was higher than expected, mainly due to insufficient site planning and poor species selection. This was critical learning for both the company and its restoration partner, which allowed them to quickly course-correct by taking a more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edenprojects.org\/stories\/why-is-there-a-need-for-lr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">holistic landscape approach<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Invest in resilience.<\/strong> Extreme weather events like fires, droughts, and floods can put an additional strain on forest ecosystems. As significant climate events increase, it is even more important to factor in tree loss, and incorporate biodiversity and resilience into forest investments. For example, one of the projects Salesforce funded in Australia has worked closely with the local community to integrate cultural burning practices into land management to get ahead of wildfires and improve seed germination. Salesforce is working to embed these types of strategies directly into its investments going forward.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Lead with transparency and shared learnings. <\/strong>As a corporate partner and funder within 1t.org, it\u2019s critical that Salesforce keeps an open line of communication with its tree-growing partners to provide updates and feedback that allow for continuous improvement of joint processes and systems. This fall, Salesforce plans to further increase transparency by publishing details of its forestry projects at <a href=\"https:\/\/restor.eco\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Restor.eco<\/a> as its first corporate partner. With these details readily available online, the company can share learnings and best practices with others involved in the trillion trees movement to increase its global impact.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<aside class=\"more-from-block more-from-block--2 alignfull wp-block-newsroom-moreontopic\">\n\t<div class=\"more-from-block__content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4
