As the sun sets earlier and the weather turns cooler, the holiday season is upon us once again. And while one might immediately think of stuffed with tinsel and lights, there’s something else to consider this year: The Christmas of the Trees.

What exactly is The Christmas of the Trees, you might ask? For starters, it has very little to do with the holiday traditions we’re used to. Instead, it’s a global effort to combat deforestation and promote environmental conservation in the face of a rapidly-changing climate.

The Christmas of the Trees was first introduced in 2019 by the UN’s BreatheLife campaign. The brainchild of former UN chief Ban Ki-Moon, the initiative aimed to raise awareness about the dangers of deforestation and its impact on our climate.

Since its inaugural year, the movement has gained momentum, inspiring individuals and organizations around the world to plant trees and protect the ones that already exist. And this year, it’s more important than ever.

With the COVID-19 pandemic still raging and millions of people confined to their homes, it’s easy to forget that our actions have consequences that extend far beyond our immediate surroundings. But the truth is that our planet is in crisis, and we need to act fast if we hope to preserve it for future generations.

The good news is that we can all do our part to make a difference. For starters, we can plant trees. Trees are crucial to the health of our planet: they absorb carbon dioxide, provide oxygen, and help regulate our climate by cooling our cities and reducing air pollution.

But planting trees is just the beginning. We also need to protect the trees that already exist. That means opposing deforestation and supporting sustainable forestry practices. It means recognizing the value of forests and the important role they play in our lives, and it means working together to ensure that we can continue to enjoy their benefits for generations to come.

So, this holiday season, let’s take the time to reflect on what truly matters. Let’s remember that the trees we decorate with tinsel and lights are just a small part of what’s really at stake. Let’s make a commitment to do our part in protecting our planet, and to ensure that The Christmas of the Trees becomes more than just a campaign, but a way of life.

Because, in the end, it’s up to us to ensure that the world we inherit is one that’s worth living in.
