Plant-for-the-Planet
The Plant for the Planets activities for the International Day of the Tree (Arbor Day) resulted in unexpected participation and attention. Over 300 German newspapers, radio and TV stations were prompted to report on this student initiative. The UNEP Billion Tree Campaign website also reports our activities.
Meanwhile the Billion Tree Campaign increased its own goal to 7 billion trees – from planned 1 billion in the beginning of the campaign.
