The world is a lot greener thanks to a young man named Felix Finkbeiner.
Ever since he was 9 years old, he has been trying to save the planet.In
2007,the German created an environmental organization called"Plant-for-the-
Planet".It encourages and trains children from around the world to plant trees
as a way of fighting against climate change. The first tree for Plant-for-the-
Planet was planted in Starnberg, Germany in March,2007.
Since its creation, the organization has already made great progress
with the help of over 100,000 children between the ages of 9 and 12. One
year after it was created, 150, 000 trees had been planted. And four years after
it was created, it had achieved its goal of planting a total of 1 million trees around the world.Felix once said in a speech, "Forests are not only the livelihood of billions, but for us children forests are our
future." It inspired kids from over 90 countries to join his movement.
In 2011,the United Nations handed over its Billion Tree Campaign to Plant-for-the-Planet.The Billion Tree
Campaign was inspired by Wangari Maathai from Kenya, an African country. Her Green Belt Movement planted
more than 30 million trees in Africa. In 2017, the Billion Tree Campaign became the Trillion Tree Campaign: to
plant one trillion trees in the next 30 years. There are about 3 trillion trees alive in the world today, so planting a
trillion more would be a huge increase. That's about 150 trees for every person on Earth.

Who wants to cal food that is thrown away as waste? Believe it or not, that's exactly what world leaders did at
a lunch held by the United Nations in 2015.
During the meal,the world leaders enjoyed dishes like salads and burgers made with thrown-away vegetables
and fruits.Chef Dan Barber,who helped create the meal,hoped that the experience would make the leaders pay
more attention to the issue of food waste.
Ir is a huge problem. One out of nine people on Earth does not get enough food. Yet every year over one thirdof the food produced worldwide goes to waste!
Why is so much food wasted? Firstly, food is often thrown away before it reaches customers because too much
of it is produced, or because it is not kept properly in farms. Secondly, shops and supermarkets usually throw away
unsold food.Finally, customers often buy more food than they need, so a lot of uneaten food is wasted.
How can you waste less food? When eating out, you may ask for less food and take home what is left. Visit
fast food restaurants less often, since they're usually more wasteful. Encourage your favorite restaurants to give
unsold food to food banks.
You can also waste less food at home. Use smaller rice bowls so that you serve less rice. Encourage family
members to use unfinished rice to make rice puddings. Tell family members to make a shopping list and buy only
what is on the list when shopping for food.
Food waste is a growing problem and we, either farmers or food sellers or customers, must take this problem
more seriously and do what we can to help.
