The trees help us, we help the trees, you help us!
Those who follow our activities know exactly how much and in what way through our Facebook or website. We are determined to plant 10 million trees. Part of this involves encouraging our fellow citizens to take responsibility for at least one tree in their lifetime based on the principle of 1 person – 1 tree: plant it, care for it until it becomes self-sustaining. Alternatively, we can take on this responsibility ourselves. We are civilians from every corner of the country. As we closely monitor the ongoing climate and biodiversity crisis, our belief grows stronger each day that the Earth needs our trees, and even more so, we humans do. For us, trees not only sequester atmospheric carbon but also provide coolness, trap dust, soothe the soul, and protect our dwindling groundwater. We live in mutual dependence: what we exhale, the tree transforms back into oxygen for us. Our helper, and above all, the assurance of humanity’s future, is the decades ahead for our children. What we parents can plant today will help our children in those decades when we are no longer physically with them.
In the coming days, along with me, several others, Lia Pokorny, Peter Geszti, Géza Röhrig, László Kollár-Klemencz, and Gabo Pumped will also ask you: give us 1% of your tax, and with this, you can help ensure that 10 million trees serve Life as soon as possible.
