I've heard a lot about tree planting, and websites that allow you to pay a fee, and they'll plant a tree as a "carbon offset". Right now Girl Guides of Canada has partnered with TD Friends of the Environment Foundation, and they are offering girls the opportunity to apply for a five hundred dollar grant, so that thier unit can organize a tree planting event, and plant a tree to help the environment. I think this sounds like a really cool idea, but what do you think?? Please comment to tell me your thoughts and opinions!

I think this is a great idea!
ReplyDeleteWhen my son was in Beavers they planted trees every Earth Day with there den and leaders. I just assumed all branches were doing the same. What better way to celebrate the day than planting a tree.
