Continous Reforestation

A GitHub Action for planting trees within your development workflow using the Reforestation as a Service (RaaS) API developed by DigitalHumani. Planting trees is an easy way to make a difference in the fight against climate change. Every tree helps to bind CO2 as long as it grows and creates living space for wildlife. Automating the process gives you total control of where, when and how much you want to contribute while saving you the fuss of doing the whole process manually. By using the RaaS API, you or your project can plant trees in a transparent way by exposing the API calls and related statistics.

  2. Copy the example worflow to <your_git_repository>/.github/workflow/integration.yaml and change the variables in the workflow to your data. Set the production variable to false to test your implementation within the sandboxed development API. Push your script to GitHub and check the GitHub Action tab of your project.

  3. 📈 A dashboard is provided to ensure a high level of transparency. This is currently under development and will provide additional details. For this purpose visit: https://digitalhumani.com/dashboard/<enterpriseid>

  4. Verify the number of trees planted in the dashboard development statistics. After a successful run add the API key to the GitHub secrets of your project our organizations as raaskey
