So, now that Copenhagen Climate Talk is over, some of you might be wondering on what actually is happening and hopefully changing in tropical forests now. Not much it seems. Forests remain under threat for all the same reasons that we’ve historically cut them down—illegal logging, industrial agriculture expansion, and destructive “development†projects. At least for one more year, business as usual is certainly going to continue and tropical forests will probably continue to be lost at the shocking rate of 1 acre/second.

Just in case you are a guy and that automatically means that step 42 is not applicable to you, 1000 Green Step provide you a back up plan. 1000 Green Steps know that the amount of rainforest in our world is rapidly decreasing each moment. It is impossible for us to stop people who have a lot of money to stop cutting down trees (just like in the movies). So what can we do? Why don’t you start by adopting a TREE instead of the whole RAINFOREST? If we think wide, imagine how many people had signed up for that and how many trees have been saved?
1000 Green Steps will list the down the things you have to do for that:
1. Invite as many people in your community to adopt a tree, and inform Adoptatree about that. (Each tree will cost you $25)
2. Adoptatree will give you your new family member’s ‘Birth Certificate’ and you can regularly visit your ‘child tree’ from Google Earth.
3. You’re done! You are now ready to get your benefits both morally and economically through Adoptatree website.
Are you ready to act now and get a new family member? Let them know!
Happy Green Living!
