Two decades ago, on 21st September 2004, the ENO network initiated a tree planting day for peace. As this event has gained momentum during the years, it became evident that a broader platform was needed to amplify its impact. In the wake of escalating conflicts, including the war in Ukraine, the imperative for a more inclusive movement for peace and environmental stewardship became apparent. Thus, the Plant And Care For Peace movement was born in 2022, an initiative by Mika Vanhanen, in co-operation with Environment Online - ENO and Act Now India
Plant And Care For Peace is a global initiative dedicated to fostering peace and environmental sustainability through tree planting, community engagement, and the promotion of arts and culture.
It transcends mere tree planting; it embodies the cultivation of humanity and friendship, both locally and globally. We believe in nurturing peace through various forms of art, including music, poetry, and creative expression, as they serve as powerful mediums for fostering understanding and harmony. Additionally, our commitment to environmental protection underscores our dedication to creating a sustainable world where peace and nature coexist in harmony.
We invite everyone to join us and celebrate this tradition: to build bridges between nations and communities by contributing to our goal: to plant trees in every country on Earth. Whether youve been with us from the first sapling or have recently joined, your efforts weave into our global forest. Lets come together, exchange stories of hope, and lay the groundwork for another 20 years of growth and connection.
