Plant a tree on birthday

Around 130 million people born every year! So where will they live?

Now half of the world's population lives in the cities, and that is going to be increased by about 70% by 2050. This means the cities will have to expand, and there will be fewer trees and more greenhouse gases. Concrete and machines like Cars and Air Conditioners in cities increase the environmental temperature as we know. Hence it is pretty clear that we are going to need a lot of trees if we hope to build large sustainable cities. How can we do it?

Let’s take a small step towards this and plant a tree every year on our birthdays.

How many trees can be planted with this concept? As per the average life expectancy - if we live approx 70 years then we can plant around 70 trees in an individual lifetime.

And there are around 18 million people celebrating their birthday on any given day. So the same number of trees can be planted every day!

Do we have so much land to plant the trees? Yes! We have. We can have 3 times trees than we have today, i.e. we can have around 9 to 10 trillion trees on our planet without affecting the agricultural land and cities.

What are the options you have to plant a tree hassle-free with minimum effort and ensure that the tree is growing right?

You may have mostly two options - either you do it yourself if you have that provision around you. Or you may take the help of an NGO, like us, working for this sincerely.
