Through the TreeUp program, Office Depot and the Arbor Foundation will plant 223 longleaf pines in the Upper Altamaha Watershed in Georgia to offset the wood used and carbon emitted by UD’s paper usage in 2018. The watershed supports the largest concentration of rare species of any river in the state, according to Office Depot. It is part of a habitat restoration protect supporting more than 10 endangered plant and animal species found in or along the river.
