ENO 100 Billion Trees by 2017 started today!

ENO Tree Planting Day is a part of ENO Tree Planting Campaign. Today it is 5th of June, The World Environment Day 2008. To celebrate it we launched a tree planting campaign that will last a decade. Our target is 100 Million Trees by 2017 and we ask the others to make it 100 Billion Trees By 2017.

The official launch was today at SMK Teloi Kanan, ENO school in Kuala Ketil, Malaysia. They planted some pine trees today but aim to plant one million trees by the end of 2008!

80 students,10 teachers and 8 parents joined their tree planting event. They planted 9 trees and each for one year indication - 5 June 2008 to 5 June 2009.

There were 4 ENO Schools involved:
1. SMK Teloi Kanan
