Help us plant trees!

Tree-Nation.com Do you want to help us plant a tree, or two? Sure you want.

As we all know planting trees can help fight climate change and poverty. And now you can help out to plant trees, for free!

Our green forum currently only has 85 members. We want more people to find out about this friendly forum community. That’s why we will plant ~~one tree~~ two trees for every hundred members that sign up, starting from today. That means we only need 15 more new members until we can plant our first trees.

So, invite your family, friends and co-workers and help us plant trees!

Tree-Nation.com and WWF will plant our trees. They are supported by the United Nations Environment Programme, so you can safely trust that this is legit.

It only takes a few seconds to register an account and it’s free. Thank you!

Update 1: We will now plant TWO trees for every hundred members that registers on our green forum.

Update 2: Two trees have been planted – Thank you!

@ crystal: Of course it's sort of a "business gimmick". We want our forum to grow and so we come up with the idea to plant two trees for every 100 members that join. That way we create some kind of incentive to join while we also do something good for the environment.

We can't afford to just plant the trees without getting something in return. We have hosting bills etc to pay and we don't do paid blog posts or affiliate us with some greenwashing companiy, like some other blogs do.

What I know, we are the only site that offers anything like this. If you want to help us (and the environment) please join our green forum. ;)

Thank you for taking the time to make a comment.

why do you need 100 members to plant two trees? Can't you do it even without members joining in. Its a good initiative to make a better earth. Its seems like a business gimmick. But i do appreciate the effort
