Giving Back to the Earth (Translated Subtitles)

<<10>> doTERRA means gift of the earth,

<<13>> but how are we giving back?

<<15>> This Earth Day, discover the sustainability efforts

<<18>> that go into a bottle of doTERRA essential oil.

<<24>> In Italy, doTERRA sources citrus essential oils

<<27>> like Bergamot and Lemon in a zero-waste process.

<<31>> Every single part of the fruit is used,

<<33>> ensuring that from the peel to the core,

<<35>> nothing goes to waste.

<<40>> In Oman, doTERRA has funded research

<<43>> and created plant nurseries to cultivate Boswellia saplings

<<47>> to guarantee the future of Frankincense sourcing.

<<54>> doTERRA has created over 5,000 farming jobs

<<57>> to source essential oils in Kenya

<<59>> and has planted 10 million trees and plants in the country.

<<62>> This number is planned to grow

<<64>> up to 30 million in the next five years.

<<71>> In New Zealand, Douglas Fir is an invasive species.

<<75>> doTERRA has been working with the local government

<<77>> to reduce its spread by harvesting the trees

<<80>> before they can reproduce.

<<82>> For doTERRA, this provides a sustainable opportunity

<<85>> to extract Douglas Fir essential oil

<<88>> while helping to preserve New Zealand's unique biodiversity.

<<92>> 32,500 wilding Douglas Fir trees have been removed

<<96>> from the Queenstown region in the last two years.

<<100>> In both Australia and Kenya,

<<102>> the steamed Tea Tree biomass is applied back

<<105>> to the fields to prevent weed growth

<<107>> and deliver important nutrients to the soil.

<<113>> Kealakekua Mountain Reserve is the largest

<<115>> native forest planting effort in the state of Hawaii,

<<119>> with over 100,000 Hawaiian Sandalwood trees planted

<<122>> in 2020 and 100,000 more coming in 2021.

<<129>> No trees are cut to produce Black Spruce essential oil

<<132>> during its production in Canada.

<<135>> The oil comes from the branches

<<136>> and needles wasted by the paper industry.

<<139>> The distillation facility is located next to a power plant

<<142>> and they feed each other, creating a closed cycle

<<145>> with net-zero environmental impact.

<<150>> All across the world, you are making an impact

<<153>> by choosing essential oils which are sourced sustainably.
