Synopsis:
It only takes four and a half minutes to watch this compelling film. Tesfaye lives in Ethiopia and recalls what his homeland was like 30 years ago. Where he lives has been severely deforested and now his country is in crisis, suffering from severe erosion, deforestation, extreme poverty and oppressive circumstances. He questions how his family and his community will survive. Tesfaye rallies his community in partnership with Eden Reforestation Projects to reforest, planting millions of trees and employing thousands of workers even has they heal their own lands. Millions of trees have been planted. Millions more are needed. Working together we can plant trees and forest again. Everything lives where trees live - plant trees. Save lives.
