"Green Movement" A Scam, 2020 Trend or Global Crisis

Year 2020 has just started and barely we are done with the first month, January, yet many organizations, researchers, scientists, politicians and so-called "tree huggers" are throwing the words and phrases to us on daily basis such as Economical Friendly, Eco-Friendly, Climate Change Crisis, Global Warming, Carbon Footprint, and etc, but what does all these mean? Are these just business gimmicks, scams or do they actually mean something? Who started this and why? Is this year 2020 trend?

Before we can answer these questions and more regarding this topic, we first need to take a step back and peek in the history. We will cover this topic in several posts, in order to understand the necessary aspect without being boggled down with loads of information, confusing terms, and/or being bored.

The Seed of Life® Goals

Many of us become the victims of depression, anxiety, outcast within our family members, and most of all alone, confused and hurt. When we started The Seed of Life®, we realized, each of us are broken, but that doesn't necessarily mean we bleed on Earth by destroying bit by bit.

Instead of bleeding, we united with each other and started creating a small path of difference in our lives to make path of better future. We don't like to "die" or be forgotten, while still being alive.

We want to live, make a difference, and whoever is forgotten or "dead" we would like to pay respect and attributes to them by respectfully planting a tree in their memory. Keep their legacy alive for next generation(s) to come!!!

The Seed of Life® is committed to Restore Nature | Plant Trees | Honor a Life | Give Hope | Leave a Living Legacy

Sudden Beginnings

When few of us friends came together one weekend in summer of 2019, we were discussing our jobs, politics, beliefs, and economy. Suddenly the hot topic became environment, of course, as we all are passionate regarding mother nature.

We realized that we need to come together and do something for our planet Earth. We cannot be ignorant and chase our dreams of becoming successful or wealthy, if we don't have a safe place to stay. So we decided to create a group called, "The Seed of Life®".

We realized through trees, everything is born and begins and ends. What better name then that. So that is how The Seed of Life® started in summer 2019 in USA
