Trees for the Earth
Earth Day’s Global 2016 Theme: Trees For The Earth.
Over
the next five years, as Earth Day moves closer to its 50th anniversary,
we’re calling on you to help us achieve one of our most ambitious goals
yet — we’re planting 7.8 billion trees and we’re starting now.
Our planet is currently losing over 15 Billion trees each year (equivalent to 48 football fields every minute). In honor of Earth Day’s 50th anniversary in 2020, Earth Day Network announced Trees for the Earth, a plan to plant 7.8 Billion trees by Earth Day 2020: one tree for every person on the planet. We invite you to join us!

Trees will
be the first of five major goals we are undertaking in honor of the
five-year countdown to our 50th anniversary. On their own and together,
these initiatives will make a significant and measurable impact on the
Earth and will serve as the foundation of a cleaner, healthier and more
sustainable planet for all.
In planting 7.8 Billion trees, we will contribute to three major goals:
Mitigating Climate Change and Pollution
Planting trees absorb excess and harmful CO2 from our atmosphere. In a single year, it takes roughly 96 trees to absorb the amount of CO2 produced by one person. Trees also absorb odors and pollutant gases like nitrogen oxides, ammonia, sulfur dioxide and ozone, as well as filter particulates out of the air by trapping them on their leaves and bark.

Protecting Biodiversity
By planting the right trees, we can help counteract the loss of species, as well as provide increased habitat connectivity between regional forest patches.

Supporting Communities and their Livelihoods
Planting trees help communities achieve long-term economic and environmental sustainability and provide food, energy and income. Studies have shown that schools with tree cover have reduced asthma and lung disease rates and help students with ADHD concentrate for longer periods. Tree planting has a direct correlation to reduced crime rates, increased property values, reduced litter, higher social cohesion, and a number of other social and psychological benefits.

Make Your Own Paper
You are going to pulp the old paper together with water, spread it out, and allow it to dry. It's that simple!- Tear the paper (feel free to mix different types) into small bits and put it into a blender.
- Fill the blender about 2/3 full with warm water.
- Pulse the blender until the pulp is smooth. If you are going to write on the paper, blend in 2 teaspoons of liquid starch.
- Set your mold in a shallow basin or pan. Pour the blended mixture into the mold. Sprinkle in your mix-ins (thread, flower petals, etc.). Shake the mold from side to side, keeping it in the liquid, to level out your paper pulp mixture.
- You have few different options here. You could remove the mold from the liquid, let the paper dry in the mold, and then peel it off. I flipped my paper out onto my countertop and used a sponge to wick away excess water. You could press a cookie sheet onto the paper to squeeze out the excess water.
