"The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now.” - Old Chinese Proverb
As an RWA, you can bring together hundreds of people from your locality to plant a great number of trees. The more trees your RWA plants, the cleaner and healthier your area becomes. Here’s how your RWA can participate in the campaign:
Select a tree species - choose a species of trees that you would like to plant in your area from our list here .
Demarcate a space - select an open space – away from buildings and other obstructions - where all residents can gather together to plant trees.
Collect your saplings - write in to us with your sapling requirement and the proposed date of the plantation event and we will have them ready for collection at our office. Write to aat@wwfindia.net
Plant your trees – the most important step, of course. Check out the ‘How to Plant a Sapling’ page for a step-by-step guide.
Send us pictures – Don’t forget to tell us about your saplings and how they are growing! Tag @WWFIndia and mention #AdoptATree in your tree photos on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook and send us your photos so we can share them with the world!
