The Click a Tree initiative



I already planted my tree.
Did you?
Learn how you can contribute the cause:

The European Commission invites young Europeans to take part in the Click a Tree initiative and to act against climate change.

Make a commitment to the natural world by planting a tree today! Get rooted in the campaign by registering here.

As one of the first 5,000 contributors, you will receive a free seedling ("Euonymus europeus", 15 - 20 cm high) from the European Commission. The seedling will be delivered together with instructions on planting. All you have to do is take the seedling or tree that you have acquired, check out the planting suggestions, plant the seedling or tree, and take a picture of what you have planted. Upload your picture and have the chance to win a fabulous adventure at an environmental learning camp.


Around nine billion tonnes of CO2 is absorbed by trees every year, but nearly two billion tonnes are released through deforestation. By planting more trees, we can demonstrate our commitment to balance of the Earth's climate and can make our own surroundings a little bit greener!

Join the competition today and raise awareness of the need to act to tackle climate change.
