00:00You guys spammed me to plant 20 million trees on Twitter, Reddit, all over my comment section, so I made it happen.

00:06Today we will be planting 20 million trees.

00:10And we put them in the hole.

00:12Now we need mulch.

00:13Put the mulch around the tree.

00:16And we hydrate it.

00:18And there we go.

00:19And again, hole, tree, mulch, water.

00:24And before we go any further, this is Sarah.

00:26She's a tree planting expert.

00:27Will this tree grow to be big and healthy?

00:30I'm going to look and see if I can pull on it and it doesn't pull out of the planting hole.

00:35So good job there.

00:36Only 19,999,980 more trees.

00:41Let's go.

00:43Oh, yeah.

00:43Sturdy.

00:44Oh, very sturdy.

00:45Dude, you could tug on this with a rope and it wouldn't come out.

00:48Chris, I need help.

00:50Can you massage my tree for me?

00:51Massage your tree?

00:52I can't get it out of this.

00:54Dude, it's like rock solid in here.

00:56There you go.

00:58So talking to trees makes them grow faster?

01:01Huh?

01:02Bro, what do you want the planet to die?

01:04Come on.

01:04Bro, you grow.

01:05Do you see the sky?

01:06It's so beautiful.

01:06It's going to be a house for birds.

01:08I'm going to leave you.

01:10You've got to toughen these trees up.

01:12Look at this.

01:13No movement.

01:14So the reason we're spacing the trees eight feet apart is so the roots like have to grow

01:18out and they don't have to compete.

01:19It's kind of weird to put mulch around a growing tree.

01:22It's like grinding up all of its relatives and spreading it around them.

01:27Bruh.

01:27All right.

01:31Well, it started to rain.

01:32At least now we don't have to water the trees.

01:34No, but seriously, we want to plant 20 million trees and a little bit of rain.

01:38Never hurt anyone.

01:39The tree falls in the woods.

01:41No one's around here.

01:41It doesn't make noise.

01:42Yes.

01:43Still a tree.

01:44Plant a tree in the middle of the forest.

01:45Hold on.

01:45I've got to do something important.

01:46Timber!

01:48Why are you mad?

01:50What is this?

01:53It's a hole.

01:53With a tree in it.

01:54Look at this tree.

01:55Look.

01:57What is this, Chris?

01:58You see that?

01:59I see you see.

02:05After planting all day, we only managed to plant 300 trees.

02:09Which is less than 20 million and my back hurts.

02:11I put out a tweet and I have tons of people coming here tomorrow to plant trees.

02:14I think I've got an idea for a drone.

02:16So I haven't mentioned this yet, but this is Mark Rober.

02:18This is his channel.

02:19He used to work at NASA.

02:20He put this thing on Mars.

02:21He does a lot of cool things.

02:22He's going to try with the drone and we're going to try it with people.

02:25Play to your strengths.

02:26All right.

02:28It's day number two and we brought a lot more people.

02:32And now we're going to try to plant the 20 million trees.

02:35So step one is we need to give everyone their tree.

02:37In the air.

02:38Can I have a fist bump?

02:38Yes.

02:39Oh my God.

02:40I shall name him Russell.

02:42Russell.

02:42Look at all these people.

02:44We're easily going to hit 20 million.

02:47And now it's time to begin.

02:49Let's plant the trees.

02:51Unless you're him.

02:53He already planted it.

02:54You're doing great.

02:55Great.

02:55Good job.

02:56Do you need help?

02:57If you would like to help, go for it.

02:58Yes.

02:59I think right here seems like the best spot.

03:01The hole's too big.

03:04Tree review.

03:06See the tongue test?

03:09You don't want any oxygen in the root system or the tree won't survive.

03:13What are these people doing?

03:14That's a solid tree.

03:15That's a solid boy?

03:16That's a solid tree.

03:17Okay, good.

03:17That's great.

03:18Whoever planted that, amazing.

03:19Make sure you want to do a donut.

03:29I believe in you.

03:30Thank you so much for helping us do this, by the way.

03:32How'd you hear about this?

03:33Oh, I saw the tweet.

03:34I had to hop in.

03:35Oh, not bad.

03:36Fist well.

03:37I like it.

03:37Thanks for helping with my tree, man.

03:38Of course.

03:39Appreciate it.

03:39Nice to meet you.

03:40Nice to meet you as well.

03:40I was honestly like, I have to do this.

03:43This is a once in a lifetime opportunity.

03:44We're going to get to the 20 mil, right?

03:46Oh, 100%.

03:47All right.

03:47No doubt.

03:47Cool.

03:48All right.

03:49Interview conducted.

03:50Look at all these people.

03:52Let's do a tree test.

03:53The way you know if they did a good job is if you can pull on it and that one you can pull

03:57on.

03:57You're killing it.

03:59How many trees have you planted so far today?

04:00I have dug 473 holes.

04:05Really?

04:05Yes.

04:06How many did you do?

04:07Hey, you're digging.

04:09Bruh, how's it going?

04:10I don't know.

04:11How's it going?

04:11It's good.

04:12It's good?

04:13It's pretty fun to plant some trees.

04:14It is pretty fun to plant some trees.

04:16You know?

04:17You know.

04:17Earth does a lot.

04:18Earth does do a lot.

04:24Let's do a little tug test.

04:26Oh, she's nice.

04:27Oh, she's nice.

04:28We just need some more.

04:29That's a good tree, man.

04:30Good job, Chris.

04:31Dude, thanks.

04:32Got him.

04:33There we go.

04:33He gets a high five, you know, whatever.

04:35The last tree.

04:36Thanks, Chandler.

04:38As you can see, there are a ton of trees here.

04:40Now, we actually grabbed a drone shot beforehand.

04:42So here's the drone shot of the empty field.

04:45Look at it.

04:45It's empty.

04:46And here's the drone shot now.

04:48Is that a lot of extra trees?

04:49Yes, it's quite extra.

04:51We had to, yeah.

04:53Cool.

04:57Unfortunately, despite having a large number of people,

04:59we came nowhere near close to planting 20 million trees.

05:02But I don't want to let you guys down.

05:04So I devised a plan where we can actually plant 20 million trees.

05:08But I need your help.

05:09We partnered with the largest non-profit tree planting organization in the world, Arbor Day.

05:14But we need your help.

05:15Every dollar donated, they will plant a tree.

05:17Watch.

05:18Here's a dollar.

05:19And I donated it.

05:20Another dollar.

05:21Another tree.

05:23Here's $10.

05:25And I just donated it.

05:26This is $30.

05:29And guess what happens when I donate it?

05:33Even Chandler can do it.

05:35Another one.

05:37Another one.

05:38Yep.

05:39And another one.

05:41Arbor Day and their partners are the pros.

05:42They've planted hundreds of millions of trees.

05:44They'll make sure they have a high rate of survivability.

05:46And they genuinely do care.

05:47If you donate a dollar, something like this ends up in the ground.

05:50And given enough time, this will turn into this masterpiece.

05:54Now, one thing I want to address.

05:56I personally haven't always been the most environmentally friendly.

05:58We've burnt a box for it.

05:59And we've done many other dumb things.

06:01And a lot of you might be of the mindset of the old me.

06:03That was basically, you know, someone else will figure it out.

06:06But that's not how it works.

06:06We genuinely need all the help we can get.

06:09And honestly, I've done everything I can.

06:10I got a bunch of fans together and we planted thousands of trees.

06:13Me and Mark have invested months of time behind the scenes into getting this all together.

06:17And I'm personally planting 100,000 trees.

06:20AKA a $100,000 donation.

06:21I've literally tried my best to do everything I can.

06:24And now it's your guys' turn.

06:25You guys have been spamming my comment section and spamming my mentions on Twitter telling

06:29me to do something.

06:30And now I want to see that same energy.

06:32We only have one earth.

06:34And it's important we take care of it.

06:36Recently, lots of not so great things have been happening to Forrest.

06:39And people just keep making fun of our generation for retweet activism and not actually doing

06:43something.

06:44Which is why we created teamtrees.org with the help of the Arbor Day Foundation.

06:48This is your chance to make a difference.

06:50For every dollar you donate here on YouTube or at teamtrees.org, a tree will be planted.

06:55And the Arbor Day Foundation are really good at what they do.

06:58These trees will have an extremely high rate of survivability.

07:01Please donate now.

07:02Don't push it off till later.

07:03You might forget.

07:04This is our chance to show the world we care.

07:06Forrest.org, donate there, or donate using the donate button below the video.
