Starting in 2023, Element will be an official member of “Engage for the Planet”, the French-based affiliate of the World Wildlife Fund.

Helping to fund forest protection initiatives​. As one of the world’s most trusted NGO’s since 1961, WWF works to stop the degradation of the planet’s natural environment and to build a future in which people live in harmony with nature.​​

As a skateboard company, it is obvious to us that the skateboard decks we make and sell have an impact on forests where trees are harvested for this use. As a global leader in the area of conservation and protection of forests around the world, WWF is the ideal partner for Element to work with to help improve our overall impact on the planet.​​

Forests provide habitat to upwards of 80% of the world’s land-based biodiversity and are the largest absorbers of carbon emissions on the planet, so it is integral to the future of our planet that these habitats are not just protected, but actively nurtured through various projects and solutions that WWF and its partners can help to provide. It is with the expertise, history and global network of ecological professionals of WWF that Element will be able to best utilize our financial pledge as a member of 1% for the Planet.​​
