24.01.2022 This week is the 50th anniversary of World Earth Day. #gratitude #bekindplanttrees #worldearthday #legacy

23.01.2022 We've been quiet lately, as we've been super busy chasing many squirrels, but we have some exciting new things to share with you soon! In the meanwhile, how is everyone's planting going? We'd love you to share some progress pics with us! #bekindplanttrees #sharethelove #somanysquirrels

22.01.2022 In Singapore they have built an Eco-Link to re-connect two nature reserves that were separated when a Freeway was built. The bridge provides safe passage for animals, increasing their habitats, gene pool and chance of survival. There are plans for more of these bridges with over 3000 native trees planted on this one alone. What can you do to help increase animals habitats? HINT: Birds love it when natives are planted nearby!

21.01.2022 Tine recently shared with us some planting action to combat deforestation in the Philippines. If you are interested in finding out more or getting involved in some planting activities in this area, you can get in touch with FPE who are working to educate communities, protect and reforest vital areas in the local environment to create healthy ecosystems, and promote sustainable development. Check it out! #bekindplanttrees #communityaction #philippines #fpe ... https://fpe.ph/

21.01.2022 If New Zealand can plant a billion, I wonder how many Australia can plant... we do have a history of strong competition with the kiwis! :D Thanks Andrew MacMillan for sharing! https://educateinspirechange.org//new-zealand-is-planting-...

You are not alone. #ruok #checkin #love #kindness For more information on how to start a conversation with people who might be struggling, go to www.ruok.org.au

15.01.2022 This one is particularly special to us. When Cam was first diagnosed, he made a choice to continue living his best life, rather than just waiting for his life to inevitably end. He made plans and booked trips and started things he knew he might never finish! He navigated the line between living like there was no tomorrow, but planning for one anyway incredibly, and there were so many adventures and experiences he would have missed out on if he didnt maintain the hope of one ...more day, one more week, one more year. There were lots of things he didnt get finished. But there were heaps that he did, and there were loads that he started for us to carry forward. This is our definition of a life well lived! "Even if I knew that tomorrow the world would go to pieces, I would still plant my apple tree." (Martin Luther) #bekindplanttrees #legacy #hope #camerongill

14.01.2022 There is absolutely joy in sustaining the life force of relocated organisms. (And trace amounts of oxygen!) You might like to choose gifts of nature this silly season :) #bekindplanttrees #relocatednature #lifeforce #joy #giving #christmas

14.01.2022 "Until you dig a hole, you plant a tree, you water it and make it survive, you havent done a thing. You are just talking." (Wangari Maathai). Lets not be talkers, peeps! Lets be doers! #bekindplanttrees #action #legacy #camerongill

14.01.2022 These stories remind us that any of us can make a difference if we keep working away diligently towards our greater goals. Massive thanks to Andrew MacMillan who finds these great stories and shares them with us. #bekindplanttrees #regreening https://mobile.abc.net.au//lady-elliot-island-gre/11549832

14.01.2022 This is your weekly call to action! And the answer to almost every question. Be kind. Plant trees. #bekindplanttrees #legacy #camerongill

13.01.2022 Okay peeps, here is some easy action we can all take! Ecosia is a nonprofit search engine that plants trees with its advertising income! Every time you browse the internet you are planting a tree! See below for instructions on how to add the Ecosia extension to your search engines! You dont even have to get off your couch to make a difference. (There is a mobile app as well!)... #bekindplanttrees #lazyactivist #ecosia https://www.ecosia.org/

10.01.2022 Cameron did not like being told he was inspirational but he inspired people to act to create change. It has been 1 year since he died but he continues to inspire us. Today we relaunch his blog, a collection of his writings about his vision and journey. We invite you to view and be inspired to be kind, plant trees. Kindness and tree planting are the answer to almost every question. We can all be world changers. Today we call you all to action. Please plant a tree for Cam, a small action to make a kinder, better world. We miss you Cam. http://www.camerongill.com/why/

10.01.2022 There have been a lot of political and controversial posts and articles lately about the burning and deforestation in the Amazon and the impact it is having on the communities, wildlife and economy. This short video from a BBC documentary explains the science around the importance of the Amazon in preventing climate change, and the impact of deforestation (whether by fire or chainsaws) and the release of carbon into the atmosphere. Dr Berenger says "Once its gone, its gon...e." What this also means is "Once its gone, WERE gone." Trees dont just provide us with the air we breathe - they also store the air that we cant (carbon)! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TigV80hwebg #bekindplanttrees #climatechange #amazon #deforestation

09.01.2022 This afternoon's isolation exercise break took us past our local park (we are not allowed back into the playgrounds yet). How glorious are autumn afternoons? We would love to see some of the autumn colours in your gardens and surrounds. For those who are on the other side of the planet, we would love to see your spring greens! #autumnglory #iso2020 #bekindplanttrees

09.01.2022 Be the good. #bekindplanttrees #kindness #believe #legacy

09.01.2022 Be kind. Make trees. This Christmas, you may like to consider alternatives to buying a new plastic tree or chopping one down. These pics were shared with us by Craig Broughton who has been playing around with crafting Christmas decor by recycling and repurposing existing materials in his workshop into new Christmas tree sculptures. We love them so much. (PS. If you do prefer to have a "fresh" Christmas tree - we wont say "real" as obviously these wood sculptures were rea...l trees once! - we recommend purchasing from an ethical and sustainable source so that your purchase is both supporting a good cause and not reducing the number of trees on the planet.) #bekindmaketrees #bekindplanttrees #sustainablechristmas #ethicalchristmas

04.01.2022 When Cameron suggested that people could plant a tree if they wanted to do something to celebrate his life, it was easy to offer people a small sapling to plant in his memory. When he told us, Actually, I think kindness and tree planting are the answers to almost every question, we thought this was a magnificent message to share, given his years of tireless work to create a kinder world and his history of environmental advocacy. When we asked people to share photos of thei...r trees, we didnt plan to start a movement. Eight months on, it seems so obvious that Be Kind. Plant Trees would become a massive part of his legacy as a branch of ImpossibleCo. Its been lovely to see everyone coming together to share their tree planting and wonderful stories of reforestation and environmental activism from around the world. Rather than dwelling on the aching loss of Cameron, it makes us smile when we think of how we are all doing him so proud. We are super excited for the big things we are going to make happen in his memory in 2020 and beyond. A very merry Christmas to everyone in our BKPT community. Remember its about action, not just words. Be kind. Plant trees. (PS. Dont forget the kindness. Spread it around.) (PPS. Thank you Craig Broughton for making these gorgeous recycled trees for us from repurposed hardwood from Camerons ParagonInc Supercentre). #bekindplanttrees #kindness #legacy

04.01.2022 Heres another article about the suitability of about a billion hectares of uninhabited land (about the size of the USA) that we can reforest to capture 2/3 of human-made carbon emissions as the most effective method to combat climate change. If we can take this necessary action to reforest, and also stop deforesting what is still remaining, we will be back on track to save the planet (and ourselves!) #bekindplanttrees #reforestation #climatechange #onebillionhectares... https://www.sciencedaily.com/releas/2019//190704191350.htm

04.01.2022 We recently spent a great day at the Singapore Botanical Gardens. Established in 1859, the Singapore Botanic Gardens showcases the regions most significant living collection of tropical flora with more than 10,000 types of plants. It was inscribed as Singapores first UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2015. It was very interesting to see these in their store encouraging others to get involved with planting. A novel idea and more useful than a paperweight! ... What do you think about this? Have you seen it in other botanical gardens around the world? Yes, we see a potential issue with the plastic casing and perhaps recyclable containers would be better, but we are focusing on the positive impact of this one :) #bekindplanttrees #singaporebotanicalgardens #souvenirshop

03.01.2022 Happy Monday, peeps! Its time for us to remind you: Be Kind. Plant Trees. #bekindplanttrees #capeup #legacy #camerongill

02.01.2022 Cam always said we can achieve big things by taking small steps. If I had told him I wanted our group to plant a million trees, I know he would have laughed and said, "I think you mean a BILLION!" This is your weekly reminder to think big, even if your actions are small. Get out there and be super, peeps! #bekindplanttrees #legacy #action #babysteps #change #super #camerongill

01.01.2022 "Kindness and tree planting are the answers to almost every question." (Cameron Gill). PS. No, Cam did not plant these trees, he just posed in front of them! But we love this photo, which was taken by his dear friend Fontaine. ... #bekindplanttrees #travelsnaps #modellingposes See more

01.01.2022 Its a new day! Its a new week! There are opportunities everywhere to be super. Show us your superpowers! #bekindplanttrees #superaction #superkind #superlife #superheroes #legacy #camerongill
