Publisher's Synopsis
In 2007, a year of "planetary emergency", when global warming was widely recognized as the defining issue of era, the Billion Tree campaign came to symbolise the readiness of people everywhere to work to protect our climate and collective home. This publication can introduce but a fraction of the energy and results inspired by the Campaign. It is intended to convey the range of partners moved to action: from children to giant corporations, from women's groups to technocrats, dancers to diplomats, farmers to national governments.
