•the impacts on people everywhere of the current situation,
•how to plant trees and organize planting parties in order to reach our goal of lowering global temperatures by planting 1,000 Billion trees by the year 2020 (14 Billion already planted!),
•and how to make effective presentations and influence policy.
Since 2007, Plant for the Planet has empowered more than 34,000 children in 50 countries to stop Climate Change in part through planting more than 14 billion trees so far. Academies are an amazing combination of serious and fun, and they provide excellent photo and video opportunities.
