Dear parents, educators, and other adult friends of Little Green Books: EVO.com
Eco-Libris
Eco-Libris partnered with three highly respected US and UK registered non-profit organizations that work in collaboration with local communities in developing countries to plant these trees. These trees are planted in high ecological and sustainable standards in Latin America (Nicaragua, Guatemala, Panama, Belize, Honduras) and Africa (Malawi), where deforestation is a crucial problem. Planting trees in these places not only helps to fight climate change and conserve soil and water, but also benefits many local people, for whom these trees offer many benefits, such as improvement of crops and additional food and income, and an opportunity for a better future.

Each year, millions of kids learn what it means to be green through Keep America Beautiful's fun and educational classroom programs, web learning tools, and by taking part as volunteers in our signature event, the Great American Cleanup. By teaching kids not to litter, how to properly reduce, reuse and recycle, and how to care for their communities, Keep America Beautiful has played an active role in raising three generations of environmental stewards.

Eco-Libris is a green business that works with book readers, publishers, authors, bookstores
and others in the book industry to balance out the paper used for books by planting trees. More than
30 Million trees are cut down annually for virgin paper used for the production of books sold in the
U.S. alone. Eco-Libris aims to raise awareness to the environmental impacts of using paper for the
production of books and provide people and businesses with an affordable and easy way to do
something about it: plant one tree for every book they read, sell or publish. Customers also receive
a sticker made of recycled paper for every book they balance out saying "One tree planted for this
book" and can later display these stickers on their books' sleeves. Publishers can use our logo in
their cover designs to indicate one tree is planted for that book.
Keep America Beautiful, Inc., established in 1953, is the nation's largest volunteer-based
community action and education organization. With a network of nearly 1,000 affiliate and
participating organizations in communities nationwide, Keep America Beautiful forms public-private
partnerships and programs that engage individuals to take greater responsibility for improving their
community's environment.
Since 1989, Trees for the Future has been
helping communities around the world
plant trees. Through seed distribution,
agroforestry training, and our country
programs, we have empowered rural
groups to restore tree cover to their lands.
Planting trees protects the environment
and helps to preserve traditional
livelihoods and cultures for generations.
