As we bring the Biodiversity Challenge to a close, we take a moment to look back at this incredible journey and celebrate the success together. John Lotspeich, the executive director of Trillion Trees, was very pleased with the outcome of our shared mission:
“Support to Trillion Trees through Robeco's Biodiversity Challenge has been inspiring; not only for their commitment to improving peoples' well-being through exercise, but also to our planet's well-being. Thanks to your dedication, we will be growing 3,346 trees, which will benefit people, nature and the climate”.

“I think this is a great initiative,” he says. “Safeguarding our planet’s biodiversity will be the next major issue facing my children’s generation, with the current frightening levels of habitat destruction and species extinction. Every positive contribution we can make is important. The Robeco challenge has also been a fun way to connect across the team and stay healthy.”
Walk the talk
Together with our colleagues, we have kicked-off the Biodiversity Challenge! We had a 45-minute walk through Rotterdam and logged our activity on the Strava app. Every minute counts, because for every 3 hours of exercise, we’ll plant a tree. Find your local club and download the Strava app.
