"Now, with our Tree-Shirt ReLeaf promotion, the simple act of purchasing a t-shirt will result in the planting of a new tree." "The Tree-Shirt ReLeaf campaign gives everyone a chance to contribute to the renewal of dwindling forests, and to promote cleaner air and a healthier planet," said Deborah Gangloff, Executive Director of American Forests. "With 100,000 t-shirts sold, we can make a difference. 100,000 trees will eventually absorb a million pounds of air pollutants from the atmosphere each year -- now that's a dent in global warming."
