What is the Million Tree Challenge?

ZAP is Creating a Major Campaign to Plant 1 Million Trees by 2010.


Currently our manufacturer in China has agreed to plant one tree for every vehicle they make in China in the new manufacturing Plant.

We have already planted the first ceremonial tree in China:


"The America China Friendship Tree"

What is the America China Friendship Tree Project all about?

The "America China Friendship Tree" was selected to symbolize the new U.S.-China joint venture to develop forms of transportation that reduce greenhouse gas emissions. ZAP Chairman Gary Starr says the collaboration can go a long way towards restoring a balance with nature.

Why Did You Plant Trees?

I love trees because of everything they do for us.  They provide shade for us and shelter for animals, and also play one of the most important roles of creating oxygen and eliminating carbon dioxide.

Others can help save the environment by planting trees, but also by creating less pollution by car-pooling to work or events, and reducing consumption of electricity, oil, and other natural resources we all use everyday that contribute to pollution and global warming.

   ZAP! is working with Trees for the Future.
   Together we are working with communities to plant
   multipurpose windbreaks around their fields. These
   three photos show communities putting to practice
   what they learn!
