WHY PLANT TREES?
  1. Trees sequester the carbon which we pour into the atmosphere when we drive cars and heat our homes using fossil fuels. 
  2. The number of trees on our planet has dropped by 46% and we need to plant more trees for keeping our oceans & rivers cool, & the air clean. 
  3. The United Nations calls for each human being to plant 140 trees in their lifetime.
