Falling crop yields: rice yields drop 10% with each degree of warming.

Water shortages: by 2025, 5 billion people will be living with regular water shortages.

Polar melting: the north polar ice cap will melt entirely within 50 years.
When the Greenland ice cap melts, world sea level will rise 23 feet.
UN estimates show the Kyoto Accord will slow rising world temperatures by just 0.2 degrees, while temperatures are projected to increase as much as 11 degrees by 2100.

Clearly, we must FIX GLOBAL WARMING NOW, offestt your carbon by planting trees.

How does each tree help Fix Global Warming Now?

Each Tree that is planted has many benefits. Here are a few of those benefits:

• A single tree can absorb one ton of carbon dioxide over its lifetime.
• Each tree helps top soil stabilie against erosion.
• Provides habitat for local wild life.
• It is another way to support endangered species.
• Helps lower temperature of local climate.
• Provide shade and help reduce wind speed.
• Absorb sound and block rainfall.
• Filter polutants and dust from the air.

Hot and dry weather throughout much of the United States has created problems for our National Forests. These dry conditions have been a perfect stage for wildfires in many areas of the country, especially the western region. The effects of these have devastated wildlife, forests, and even our cities and homes. What’s even more frightening is the effect these fires are having on our environment and global warming. Environment correspondent for Washington (Reuters), reported that the most recent fires in Southern California have created 8 MILION METRIC TONS OF CLIMATE WARMING CO2 into the atmosphere in just ONE week. That’s about one quarter as much as fossil fuels do in the entire state of California in one month. That is a lot of carbon dioxide affecting global warming now. At this rate of global warming, our children will be greatly affected unless we do something about it now. One way to contribute and help fix global warming now, is to plant trees and offset the carbon dioxide that we are emitting. Trees also emit life giving oxygen back into the atmosphere and help stop soil erosion from wind and water. MAKE A DIFFERENCE RIGHT NOW, PLANT A TREE.
