From Old Phones to New Forests: Join ecoATM and One Tree Planted in Celebrating Earth Day with 50,000 Trees Planted in North America

Environmental Innovators Join Forces to Tackle E-Waste and Restore Ecosystems

SAN DIEGO, April 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Transitioning from a single day of awareness on Earth Day to a full month, ecoATM and One Tree Planted are joining forces this April to plant 50,000 trees in North America.

Together this Earth Month, ecoATM and One Tree Planted are on a mission to turn action into impact. By pairing responsible e-waste recycling with planting 50,000 trees, ecoATM and One Tree Planted are helping to offset environmental damage -- restoring ecosystems, improving air quality, and removing harmful pollutants that contribute to climate change.

This partnership aims to drive greater consumer engagement in recycling with ecoATM, particularly during a time when environmental awareness is heightened. As a result of this partnership, 50,000 trees will be planted by One Tree Planted in an area impacted by wildfires in Canada, where ecoATM recently grew their kiosk network.

"This partnership drives meaningful impact for communities and the planet," said Neil Fried, ecoATM Senior Vice President of Corporate Development. "This April, we invite our consumers to join ecoATM and One Tree Planted in doing good for the planet. Together, recycling old devices at our convenient kiosks and planting 50,000 trees creates a more sustainable future for all to enjoy. Through technology circularity, promoting rehabilitation of a fire-stricken area, and returning value for our customers, we look forward to making a meaningful difference this Earth Month."
