One School, One Tree, One Gift to Nature

The Green Wave is a multi-year global campaign that enables children and youth to make a difference – one school, one tree, one step at a time. The Green Wave brings together children and youth from around the world to raise awareness about biodiversity, and the need to reduce its loss. The Green Wave contributes to the Plant for the Planet Billion Tree Campaign.

Students from thousands of participating schools around the world will plant a native tree on the 22 May 2011.  At 10am local time students will water their tree simultaneously: creating a global, symbolic, Green Wave
