BASF is starting a donation programme in China to support the Yunnan Green Environment Development Foundation (YGF)’s participation in the global ‘Plant a Billion Trees’ campaign.
Under the ‘Glasurit Bodyshop Emissions Program’, selected bodyshops, which use the premium Glasurit 90 Line waterborne refinish paint, are invited by BASF to join the programme. All donations will be aggregated by BASF and then donated to YGF, which will use the funds to plant trees. The first batch of trees funded by BASF will be planted by YGF around August 2016 and YGF will also be responsible for tending the trees after they are planted. The campaign aims to plant one billion trees in Brazil, USA and China by 2025 to restore forests and protect their residents
