Negative. They are well past 250 million trees. They hit 250 million a couple months back.
huh - wonder why the site doesn't indicate that. Well, that's awesome

Hell yeah!! Thank you, OP for creating this thread. It's so awesome to see everyone come together for this (though, I am a little shocked that this isn't more popular on here). Does anyone know of any databases for local organizations that need help with planting trees? I wasn't finding much out of the Nashville, TN area, but I probably have yet to find the right website.
Well I hope more people join because I asked a mod to change the title with a new goal lol... 25k trees for Christmas. THINK BIG
Hey I live in Nashville, TN! It's hard for me to find anywhere good to volunteer as well unfortunately.Hell yeah!! Thank you, OP for creating this thread.

I'm setting a 2k target for myself for the end of the year. I'm quitting smoking, and donating the cost of a pack ($17 where I live) to various causes up to the end of the year if I stay smoke free for a week is my plan to stay motivated. So I actually don't have to be all that good to make it, lol

Boy does this thread need a bump.
This should honestly be plastered on Era's Front Page, Stickied, and then advertised by Resetera's mods. So many people willing to complain about how they are all screwed over by climate change, but unwilling to to put their money where their mouth is(Yes, corporations need to entirely more work into this as well).
Let's change that though. I am actually going to be planting some trees next weekend. Hoping to get maybe 20 in a local forest.
Awesome goals.
Got my girlfriend to participate!
We are now at 12 645 trees, which means more than halfway done!
A friend of mine plans to gift trees to everyone for Christmas as opposed to regular presents.The thead is in the community goal rotation. I will make sure it pops up there at least once before Christmas.

I don't do presents anymore, elsewise I would too.
Great idea - and I'd also like to point everyone to http://www.ecosia.org - a web search engine based on Bing with additional Chromium based apps for iOS/Android that uses paid ads from your search requests to plant trees. I've switched to it and I'm using their Chrome extension since a while and have financed a few tries by just doing what I'm doing anyway!
I decided to jump in:
I also used my company match so that's a total of 2k more trees.

HOLY SHIT
I just invested $5k in two acres of trees here
at 110 trees per acre, that adds another 220 to our total. 😁
One acre of empress trees absorbs on average 103 metric tones of carbon. So for $2500 you can carbon a couple years of your life. 😎

Incredible. Along with other donations it's awesome seeing that total grow. What a brilliant thread and kudos again to the OP for initiating it.I just invested $5k in two acres of trees here

WTF!? hahahaha
I wasn't expecting this going into my thread this morning. What a nice surprise. Thanks to you all!
We are at 28 155 trees!!!
I donated 100$ to teamtrees, does this count to our total? Sorry if I misunderstood.

100!
Did you report it, otherwise they are likely to miss it.MODS, could you please change the title to ERA's tree planting thread - [NEW GOAL : 50 000 TREES FOR CHRISTMAS]
You're in! Thanks for taking the first step in being a Tree Ambassador.
We'll be in touch soon with more details. For now, take a moment to celebrate 🎉
Here's a fun graphic you can save & share on social media!
We have planted 2000 trees a few months ago on behalf of our company and it was my idea to do it, please count some of that :(
