Join Live Earth in support of the Art of Living Foundation/ Stand Up Take Action's Mission Green Earth Campaign.  Eight years ago, at the Millennium Summit, 189 country heads committed to work together “to build a safer, more prosperous and equitable world for all by 2015.”   Mission Green Earth is one program in support of the seventh goal of the campaign: to ensure environmental sustainability.

This year, participants can show their support by joining Mission Green Earth in planting trees EVERYWHERE. The campaign is already active in India and in 88 other countries, and has a goal of planting 100 million trees before October 16th.  It is said that the average person utilizes the oxygen of 16 trees to survive his/ her lifespan. Let’s work together and take action between now and October 16th to plant 100 million native, locally appropriate trees to support environmental sustainability.

You can read more about the United Nations Millennium Campaign on their website.  The Art of Living Foundation creates many programs in support of the goals;  to get involved this year please complete the reporting form for the trees you plant at www.standuptakeactionaolunmc.org You can also download posters for the tree-planting campaign, find out more about how to plant a tree so that it will grow and thrive, and get other materials to support a tree-planting event.  The project is supported by many partners including the United Nations Environment Program and Plant for the Planet.
