Something that\u2019s been going viral recently is the TeamTrees<\/a> fundraising challenge aiming to raise $20M by the end of 2019 to plant 20M trees. So we thought we\u2019d like to do our part too.
<\/pre>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Who’s planting trees and why?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The fundraising was started by American YouTubers MrBeast and Mark Rober. Trees will be planted in association with Arbor Day Foundation, a non-profit organization with 47 years of tree-planting experience and the same Charity Navigator rating<\/a> as the American Red Cross. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Forest restoration has the most climate mitigation potential comparing to other solutions, thus it’s vitally important to not only protect<\/a> forests but also to restore them. Trees will be planted in forests where they\u2019re most needed across the planet over the course of 2 years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s been inspiring to see how many people around the world have supported this initiative: Discovery channel, Plants vs Zombies<\/a>, Tesla CEO<\/a>, YouTube CEO<\/a> & Twitter CEO<\/a>, lots of famous YouTubers and even third-graders<\/a> stepped in to fight against climate change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can make a difference<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
We invite you to be a part of the solution. For every SSL<\/a> you buy, we donate to teamtrees.org. Our goal is $50,000 to help them reach the $20M goal until the end of 2019. The amount of trees you\u2019ll plant is based on the number of years you choose. With some products, you\u2019ll be donating even more trees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The fundraising will run until December 20th. In the end, we will give away TeamTrees branded hoodie and t-shirt<\/a> for those 2 gardeners who planted the most trees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
