Emma met their goal.

During SXSW, we asked you to show your support for our leafy friends by voting YES for trees. The idea was simple: if you and 999 of your pals voted YES, we would plant 1,000 trees in a non-harvest location in the U.S. So on behalf of cedars, sycamores and possibly hackberry trees everywhere, we’re thrilled to announce that our mission was successful.

It sounds like they have the right idea planting different sorts of trees for bio-diversity. Too many of the “Plant a tree” initiatives in the past were about monoculture.

I guess I don’t understand why you have to have people vote for that. If you’re gonna plant trees to help the environment, just plant trees already.

I helped a cedar. I liked it, quirky fun getting an email from a tree
