One of the things that affects our health immensely is the environment. The air we breathe, the climate changes we endure, the droughts, the floods all affect our allergies and may contribute to asthma. That's why the planting of trees is so important. The trees contribute oxygen to the air. Reducing our carbon foot print will put more oxygen in the air.
Shaklee Corporation has had a program going for the last couple of years called "A Million Trees, A Million Dreams". They have also supported Wangari Maathai, the Nobel Peace prize winner, in her effort to plant trees in Africa. Tomorrow Shaklee will partner up with Wangari Maathai to plant their 1,000,000th tree! What a noble effort!
Shaklee became the first corporation in the world to receive the "Climate Neutral" designation in the year 2000, when we were just becoming aware of doing so. They also introduced their environmentally sound cleaning product 40 years ago, before we even knew what organic really was! Basic H became one of the first Earth Day products.
