Green is Universal goes to Share and Plant Trees this Holiday Season
Green is Universal’s free “One Small Act” social gaming platform celebrates little changes that have a big impact on the environment.
So now and every year at this time if you dress a tree and share it: a tree gets planted. In fact, the Green campaign is universal and highlights tree planting as a global effort.
Arbor Day FoundaTion
Let me explain.
NBC and the The Share a Tree program help the Arbor Day Foundation every year plant trees across the United States. These trees are planted in our national forests, state forests and state parks. Two parks as examples are in Michigan’s Mackinaw and Au Sable State Forests. Clearly, Green is Universal reaches all these environments.
So Jack Pine Trees will be planted improving the habitat of the endangered Kirtland’s warbler. The warbler is a neotropical, migratory songbird breeding habitat almost exclusively confined to young, dense Jack pines. This reinforces how universal efforts for green conservation make a difference.
Today, Kirtland’s warblers are only located in ten counties on Michigan’s northern, lower peninsula and four counties in the upper peninsula. The work done by the Arbor Day Foundation’s replanting partners increased the number of singing males from less than 200 to more than 1,900. This work has brought back the bird from bringing the brink of extinction. Importantly, these environmental successes show how green is universally relevant to all species.

One response to “Green is Universal : Plant a Tree Today”
Pangea Organics has a bar soap that comes in packaging that contains tree seeds. So, when you open the package, just plant the box and a tree will grow. Pretty neat. https://pangeaorganics.com/
