Help Us Plant 1,000 Trees – by May 31st!

Posted by Jessica, BiOH Polyols Marketing Manager on May 14, 2009

In the spirit of Earth Day, we kicked off an effort to support The Nature Conservancy and their Plant a Billion Campaign. We have started a Facebook Cause with a goal for 1,000 members by May 31, 2009. For every member who joins the cause (up to 1,000 people!) , the BiOH® Polyols business will donate $1 to the campaign which plants 1 tree in Brazil’s Atlantic Forest.

The trees will be planted by Conservancy staff and partners. According to The Nature Conservancy, the Atlantic Forest is considered one of the world’s most endangered forests. Tropical forests play a special role in fighting global climate change. The Nature Conservancy estimates that this reforestation effort to plant a billion trees will remove 10 million tons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere every year – which they say is equivalent to taking 2 million cars off the road!

Do you want to help? Start by joining our cause today! Then help us reach our goal of 1,000 members by May 31st by inviting your friends to join and support this cause. Let’s plant some trees!
