International Solidarity: Healing Trees

 

On May 4 & 5, 2022, everyone has the opportunity to join the global community in international solidarity to contribute to climate change mitigation by planting trees in memory of lives lost to COVID-19.  Healing Trees seeks partners from around the world to join in 48 hours of collective effort planting over 5 million trees.

Healing Trees was started by the San RamΓ³n Carbono Neutral Foundation in Costa Rica. It has grown with the support of the Battle Creek Community Foundation, MasterCard Foundation, Cummins, Inc., Catalyst 2030 and the Government of Cost Rica. They seek individuals or organizations to join them. More information is found on the Healing Trees website. The organization requests that people visit the website to register their commitment to plant trees to help track the number of trees to be planted.

I'm truly moved by the initiative of Healing Trees to commemorate those lost to COVID-19 by planting trees. This not only honors their memory but also contributes significantly to climate change mitigation. The collaboration of various organizations and the support from the global community is heartwarming. It's a beautiful way to bring people together for a cause that benefits both our planet and humanity. I'm looking forward to participating and adding to the goal of planting over 5 million trees. What a meaningful way to create a lasting legacy!
