Chandler Van Voorhis is the co-founder and managing partner at GreenTrees, a global leader in reforestation to answer climate change and the largest reforestation program operator in the U.S. At GreenTrees, he drives the organization’s efforts to address climate change through reforestation. Under Chandler’s leadership, GreenTrees has engaged more than 600 landowners ranging from 10 to 3,500+ acres, planting 130,000+ acres of trees that have generated carbon offset credits equivalent to removing more than six million metric tons of carbon from the Earth’s atmosphere.
With nearly three decades of industry experience, Chandler is a leading expert in conservation and ecological markets. In 2002, he was awarded the ChevronTexaco Conservation Award, the nation’s most distinguished private conservation award.
