Girl Scout Tree Promise
Protect the planet from the effects of climate change.
All over the world in parks and forests, climate change is damaging the ability of forests to grow back on their own. In cities, trees help cool communities, reducing the heat island effect created by buildings, machines, and pavement that hold heat. Tree planting provides habitat for wildlife, creates shade on hot summer days, cleans water, and removes asthma-causing air pollution.
Girl Scouts have pledged to take 5 million actions to address climate change by planting, protecting, and honoring trees to support wildlife conservation and ease the negative effects of climate change. In partnership with the Elliott Wildlife Values Project, American Forests, and The Arbor Day Foundation, we have already planted tens of thousands of trees in all 50 states and globally but we must keep going!
