Ecotonoha

Ecotonoha is an environmental project by NEC Corporation to nurture a virtual tree collaboratively and at the same time contribute to the environment by helping to combat global warming.

For every 100 signatures (or leaves) received on Ecotonoha, we plant a tree. In 2005 we had 84,539 signatures, and so planted 845 trees on Kangaroo Island in Australia.
