The seed kit is intended to encourage young Ontarians to get involved in protecting and conserving biodiversity in urban parklands and forest ecosystems and is an initiative of OPG Biodiversity. Kids will be given a tree seed kit with instructions, including online registration where they can record and track the progress of their own tree.
"At OPG, we believe that industry has a key role to play in conserving, sustaining and protecting nature and fighting climate change," said Tom Mitchell, OPG's President and CEO. "We're pleased to work with Trees Ontario and all our partners to encourage awareness of the importance of biodiversity."
Until the early 1990s, upwards of 30 million trees were planted each year in southern Ontario. By 1998, that number had dropped to less than 2 million. Trees Ontario is working with partners like OPG, local conservation authorities and stewardship groups, and the provincial government to change this.
"Trees are the lungs of the earth - breathing in carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen. They help clean our air, restore our watersheds, re-establish wildlife habitat and buffer against the effects of climate change," said Robert H. Keen, RPF, Trees Ontario's a/CEO. "All of us have a role to play in protecting the environment so that we can ensure a sustainable ecosystem and a healthier populace now and for our future generations."
