Default Avatar Home Tree Initiative

K .. this is like old old news, but I didn't even know about it till today

AVATAR Home Tree Initiative

and according to Earth day network, they did achieve it:

Avatar Home Tree Initiative Plants Over 1 Million!

In case you haven't already heard, neither natural disasters nor a depressed international economy could thwart the dedication of Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment (TCFHE), Earth Day Network (EDN) and 17 partner organizations around the world in achieving the goals of the Avatar Home Tree Initiative.

Despite the challenges faced in 2010, over 31,000 individuals planted 1,006,639 trees on six continents, creating immediate benefits forf tens of thousands of families and long-term benefits for the global environment.

Congratulations to all of our partners: Million Trees NYC, Friends of the Urban Forest (San Francisco), Tree People (Los Angeles), SOS Mata Atlantica (Brazil), Grupo Ecológico Sierra Gorda (Sierra Gorda Ecological Group, Mexico), Bosque Sustentable A.C. (Sustainable Forest, Mexico), Tree Canada, Plantemos Para el Planeta (Spain), The Woodland Trust (U.K.), Stichting wAarde (The Earth Value Foundation, The Netherlands), Kinome' (France & Senegal), ClubE (Germany), Vereniging voor Bos in Vlaanderen (Organisation for Forests in Flanders, Belgium), Municipality of San Giovanni in Persiceto (Italy), Skogen i Skolan (Forest in School, Sweden), Trees for the Future (Haiti) and Landcare Australia.

"Its only 'here' that we lose perspective, out at the Cosmic Consciousness Level things get a lot clearer. For example, there is an actual star pattern that is traced in the shape of a Willow Tree, across the breadth of the Milky Way! And no wonder Indigenous peoples refer to the 'here after' as the Happy Hunting Grounds! Has it ever occured to anyone why the bioluminescence dots, on the Na'vi!"

Brilliant job to all those who participated. We all should plant a million trees every earth hour/earth day.

I'm in the same boat as you Mika, I just heard about it now but it sounds like it would of been great fun.

One is mine, from the Avatar member program code in the DVD... I guess each Avatard purchasing the first DVD took part. Nice to know that we were able to make a little impact - one million trees is a nice number to reach, really.

Wiggling bare toes,
