How long will I HUG A TREE for? You decide!
LET’S BREAK A WORLD RECORD TOGETHER – for the most number of photos of people hugging trees! You can join by uploading a photo of yourself hugging a tree (link to upload coming soon). You can hide your face behind the tree if you want. During the next United Nations climate meeting in Brazil in Nov 2025, I will do a tree hugging marathon by hugging a tree in Perth, Australia. I will hug the tree for one extra minute for every photograph that is uploaded! I will do this to raise attention of decision makers everywhere that kids deserve a safe earth to live on – and that 2,629 kids from 33 nations (have drawings on the giant banner) and nearly 9000 kids from 15 nations (have seen the giant banner) have joined this call for action so far! The school with the most photos uploaded will win a class set of 12 bleachable coral polyps (see kids using them), plus a video explaining coral bleaching from me. This is for EVERYONE – all ages please join in!
Contact Marji (marjettalp@gmail.com) if you want the giant banner to visit your school!!
The giant banner has been to 15 countries so far (see map above and read more). Last year, the banner toured Europe and has been part of 4 United Nations Climate meetings (COP26, COP27, COP28, COP29). Last month the banner was at Banksia Grove Primary School!
