Skippy, yes of course, I am sure the Teen would agree, more trees are good, period. :)

Hi. Just want to ask permission to copy the concept for my birthday. Will be planting 30 trees on my 30th bday. =) I’ll be copying the concept in preparing my invitation. Hope this will merit a favorable response. Godbless. =)

You know those people whom you can’t seem to think of a gift for? I think you have given me a wonderful idea for birthday presents and all other kinds of presents for them.

Hi, I really like the idea! I am actually thinking of giving herbs for Christmas but your idea is better. Honestly I have no idea where to start. How do I go about it? Thanks.

wow, this is an amazing idea from your family, with your timely concern about carbon footprints. I am part of a climate change work and it is amazing to learn that there are people like you who have personal initiatives to help our environment.

Recycling paper is not green at all. Making recycled paper is just another manufacturing process on top of a manufacturing process (There is NO manufacturing process that does not create pollution) add to that the chemicals they use that goes into the waste water that is produced. Just imagine the pollution and waste caused by the multiple transporting, shredding, cleaning of the used paper even before it is made into new (rather inferior quality) paper (which, by the way is more costly)

Besides, the paper pulp industry is responsible for planting most of the trees in tree farms around the world (you didn’t think paper came from rainforest trees, did you?) A healthy growing global appetite for virgin paper products would encourage more tree farms and thus, more trees in the world.

Instead of recyling paper, plant trees in any available piece of land like what MM and family are doing.

MM,
Hats off to you and your family. It’s amazing how you could remind us (me personally anyways) of the the things we could do or we’ve been wanting to do but just got put on hold to help our environmnet.

Bro, you inspire a lot of our kababayans to do better and appreciate a good life.

May the peace and blessings of G-d almighty be upon you and your family.

EbbaMyra, Manila Seedling Bank is at EDSA cor Quezon Ave., not very far from the weekend market in the Lung Center compound. If you go on a Sunday morning, you can visit both places in one trip.
