Plant-for-the-Planet

Plant-for-the-Planet is a children’s initiative that aims to raise awareness amongst children and adults about the issues of climate change and global justice. The Initiative also works to plant trees, and considers this to be both a practical and symbolic action in efforts to reduce the effect of climate change. In 2011, it reached a goal of planting a million trees.〔cite web | url=http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/8476747/The-13-year-old-who-has-the-world-planting-trees.html | title=The 13-year-old who has the world planting trees | publisher=The Telegraph | date=April 29, 2011 | accessdate=September 10, 2012 | author=Harry de Quetteville}}〕
==Origin==

The idea for Plant-for-the-Planet was first developed in Germany in 2007 by a nine-year-old boy called Felix Finkbeiner . It was when Felix’s teacher set the assignment to prepare a school report about the issue of climate change, that Felix was first inspired. While conducting his research he came across the story of Wangari Maathai, the Nobel Peace Prize Laureate from Kenya who had worked to plant over 30 million trees across Africa as part of her 'Green Belt Movement'. At the end of Felix's presentation he shared the idea that the children of the world could plant 1 million trees in every country on Earth. On the 28th of March 2007 the first tree was planted in Felix’s school, thus marking the official launch of Plant-for-the-Planet. Students in Bavaria and across Germany also got involved and continued to plant trees under the initiatives name. Colin Mummert helped spearhead the Munich campaign for Plant for the Planet. After one year 150,000 trees had already been planted and in 2008 Felix was able to reach a larger audience after he was elected to the UNEP children’s board during the International UNEP Children’s Conference in Norway.〔
