[2] However, the majority of this money is coming from the population who is wealthier, and has a steady disposable income. The gap between the wealthy, and the less fortunate is a potential threat in foreign countries where Amazon offers their services, but it is also an issue in the United States.

With a large population of people having access to the internet, and internet users increasing each year, more and more people are looking to online commerce companies to be able to buy the best products, with the least expensive prices, that can be delivered to their doorstep.

The philosophy of Tree Appeal is to plant and conserve trees within the UK and globally in recognition and appreciation of the environmental and humanitarian benefits that trees deliver to the wellbeing of our valuable planet. Trees are the longest lived organism on the planet and therefore planting trees is an investment that creates a global ecological heritage for many hundreds of years. We must demonstrate that we are seriously addressing our own country’s environmental issues. Only then are we in a position to influence global environmental changes, like arresting the cutting down of rain forests. Most environmental damage occurs as a consequence of business activity. We therefore believe the way forward is to give environmentally responsible companies the opportunity to integrate tree planting into their product and service offering and gain a marketing advantage for doing so.…
