What does this tell you?

You can make a real difference for the environment right now. 
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Be part of one of the biggest, most effective environmental efforts in the United States.
 
10 Reasons to plant trees with AMERICAN FORESTS today. Your trees will:

• Clean our water and make it safe for drinking, boating, fish and wildlife.
• Clean the air of pollutants and give off oxygen, so we all breathe easier.
• Provide vital habitat for wildlife, from bears to bald eagles, salmon to salamanders.
• Cool the air, land and water with shade and moisture.
• Save money by reducing the cost of stormwater runoff, lowering home & office energy use, and improving property values.
• Celebrate life. Planting trees shares the joy of a birth or birthday, remembers a loved one, or says "thank you" to a friend.
• Make good neighbors. Trees improve quality of life, build community spirit, reduce crime, and help control urban sprawl.
• Help fight global climate change by removing carbon dioxide from the air.
• Planting 30 trees pays the average American's annual "carbon debt" - the amount of carbon we release into the atmosphere.

Trees count! Every tree you plant counts toward AMERICAN FORESTS' goal of 20 million trees for the new millennium. It's easy!

Plant more than ideas with your students this Earth Day.
 

Your trees will be planted in one of our 169 environmental restoration projects across North America. We're also planting trees in more than 300 urban sites and 21 countries around the world. And we're adding new Global ReLeaf projects each year!

Here's what you'll receive as our thanks for planting 25 or more trees right now:

 

The colorful, award-winning American Forests magazine for one year. Your own official AMERICAN FORESTS tree planter decal. A personalized AMERICAN FORESTS tree planting certificate of appreciation in your name or the name of the person for whom you plant your trees (children, grandparents, etc.).

Trees make great gifts!

You can plant Global ReLeaf trees as a living gift or memorial and send a personalized gift certificate.

Thousands of people have planted Global ReLeaf trees in the names of others to celebrate births, create living memorials for loved ones, commemorate important events, or simply to thank friends for kind deeds.

Brides plant trees for their wedding guests. Mother's and Father's Days are especially popular. Arbor Day and Earth Day are annual favorites. Or plant trees for a family occasion, such as a reunion or anniversary.
