TREE PLANTING PROGRAM
I'm writing an article about eco travel and I got to thinking --
when we travel, the vehcile uses fossil fuel to move us, sending
tons of carobon dioxide into the air. But tree planting would
offset the CO2 by absoring it. So plant a tree every 2000 miles
driven by car or flown by airplane.
I'm looking for tree planting programs in other countries. (I have
a fairly good list in the USA). I want to encourage my readers to
plant trees in the countries that they visit.

Please send me a list of tree planting programs with addreses and if possible
costs of the programs.

Planting a tree while beeing in an aeroplane must be funny. :-)
I bet half the atlantic ocean will be drowned under trees soon. ;-) :-(


I think, as long as people consider driving in cars or flying by
aeroplanes is a reasonable method to move from A to B, any efforts in
saving our atmosphere will fail. (No smiley)
