Memo: EU launches ‘Click a Tree’ campaign

The European Commission launched its new initiative 'Click a Tree' in a drive to raise awareness of the actions we can all take to fight climate change and protect the environment. In the run up to the United Nations Climate Change Conference to be held in Copenhagen in December this year, the campaign aims to encourage young Europeans to take individual action against climate change. To get the campaign off the ground, Young Europeans can order and plant one of 5,000 free tree seedlings they receive from the website clickatree.europa.eu, or simply buy their own tree to plant and then register at the site.
