NEW YORK & LONDON (April 22, 2024) –  EDITED™,  the leading global retail intelligence platform, is excited to announce a partnership with One Tree Planted, which aims to aid reforestation efforts. 

Fashion is one of the most unsustainable industries in the world, accounting for ~3-5% of global carbon emissions. EDITED recognizes the urgency of mitigating these environmental effects and is committed to taking actionable steps toward sustainability. 

While supporting this initiative is not sufficient for combatting climate change, it is one step the company is taking to be accountable. Scientists consistently identify reforestation as one of the top solutions to the climate crisis, and the trees planted as part of this initiative will support the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals.   

“Through our partnership with One Tree Planted, EDITED is proactively addressing the environmental issues our planet faces by contributing to reforestation efforts worldwide. This initiative underscores our commitment to sustainability and aligns with our mission to inspire a sustainable approach to success within the retail sector.” 

– Shellie Vornhagen, CMO at EDITED 

This partnership aims to: 

1. Support global reforestation efforts 
2. Inspire others in the retail sector to think about and prioritize sustainability 
3. Provide customers with a simple way to take action and give back to the planet 
4. Raise awareness about fashion’s environmental impact and the importance of restoration

“With EDITED’s commitment to giving back to the environment by planting trees, we will restore forests, create habitat for biodiversity, and make a positive social impact,” says Louis Lagoutte, Regional Fundraising Director at One Tree Planted. “We are grateful for their support, which is a prime example of how a global retail intelligence brand can give back to our planet.” 

This campaign aligns with EDITED’s mission to inspire brands and retailers to take profitable and sustainable action. By leveraging AI-driven intelligence, EDITED empowers businesses to make real-time decisions that drive profit while minimizing environmental impact.
