WHY PLANT TREES?
- Trees sequester the carbon which we pour into the atmosphere when we drive cars and heat our homes using fossil fuels.
- 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.
- The United Nations calls for each human being to plant 140 trees in their lifetime.
