When I spoke last week to the group at Wood Dale Public Library, west of Chicago, one of the audience members told me that Lions Clubs International are active in planting trees. Last year alone, they planted more than 15 million trees. I had no idea that Lions Clubs were this involved in conservation, so I was very happy to see this. To check out what Lions Clubs are doing, you can go to this web site, which has a very informative map showing where they have planted trees.
