Acer is going all in on the environmental sustainability of one of its newest products. Starting now, the company will ensure that 100 trees get planted for every purchase of its new Chromebook Spin 513.

According to reviews, the Spin 513 performs well in place of a laptop or desktop computer, but is more environmentally friendly. According to PX3, which specializes in sustainability in IT, the Spin 513 is 84 percent more energy efficient than a legacy desktop PC.

All the trees from these purchases will be planted through a partnership with Ecologi UK, which plants trees all around the world. All you have to do after purchasing your unit is register it on the Acer website, and they’ll take it from there.
