How many trees did Pornhub plant?

Pornhub, one of the most popular adult websites in the world, has been making headlines lately not just for its content but for its environmental efforts. The website initiated a campaign in April 2019 called "Pornhub Gives America Wood" with the goal of planting trees for every 100 videos viewed under the campaign category.

How does the campaign work?

The "Pornhub Gives America Wood" campaign pledged to plant a tree for every 100 videos viewed under the campaign category. The videos featured performers planting trees and their production company donating money to plant more trees. Each video has a running counter in the corner that tallies total views and trees planted. The videos ranged from five to 25 minutes and could all be accessed for free.

What were the campaign's results?

The campaign lasted from April 18 to May 2, 2019, and surpassed its goal of one million trees, ending with 5,473,914 trees planted. The trees were planted across 20 different states in the United States, including California, Colorado, Florida, Hawaii, Michigan, and New York. The campaign also partnered with non-profit organizations such as the Arbor Day Foundation and Sustainable Pittsburgh to help plant and maintain the trees.

What's next for Pornhub's environmental efforts?

Pornhub has made it clear that they plan to continue their efforts in promoting environmental conservation, and have already begun new campaigns. In June 2019, they launched another campaign called "The Dirtiest Porn Ever" where for every 10,000 views, Pornhub pledges to remove one pound of plastic from ocean beaches. The campaign was so successful that the website ended up removing over 50,000 pounds of plastic from the ocean.

Overall, Pornohub's environmental campaign has shown that even adult websites can use their platform to promote positive change and impact the world in a meaningful way. Their success in planting trees and removing plastic from the ocean serves as an inspiration for other industries and individuals to take action towards protecting the environment.
