Celebrate “Tree Lady of Africa” on National Arbor Day 🥳

April 30 is National Arbor Day, a celebration of trees and promoting tree planting and care. I’m re-posting my 2019 blog about Dr. Wangari Maathai, the “tree lady of Africa” and Founder of the Green Belt Movement.

National Arbor Day and Remembering Wangari Maathai 🥳

Note: Today is National Arbor Day, a celebration of the role of trees in our lives and promoting tree planting and care. I’m reposting my 2019 blog about Dr. Wangari Maathai, Founder of the Green Belt Movement.

In 2007, the late Dr. Maathai launched the Billion Tree Campaign. To date, 193 countries planted 15 billion trees. Plant for the Planet honors Dr. Maathai’s achievements by taking the campaign to the next level with the Trillion Tree Campaign. Plant a tree for National Arbor Day!

March is Women’s History Month and March 3 is Wangari Maathai Day. In celebration of women everywhere, here’s my post about one of my heroines, Wangari Maathai.
