On 22 May, the International Day of Biological Diversity (IBD), students around the world will count down to 10:00 local time, when they will water their tree in their respective schoolyards, creating a figurative 'green wave' starting in the far east and traveling west around the world.

    Throughout the day, students will upload photos and text summaries to greenwave.cbd.int to share their tree-planting story with other children and youth from around the world. An interactive map depicting all the Green Wave trees will go live at 20:10 local time, thereby creating a second 'green wave'.
