Plant a wedding tree

In Indonesia, reforestation is now REQUIRED for weddings.
In the Sragen region of Java in Indonesia - a country criticised for its rapid deforestation - couples will apparently be required to fund the planting of 5 trees in their local area if they want to tie the knot. And if they want to get divorced, they’ll have to stump up for 25 seedlings!So find your LOCAL reforestation service, and plant a tree for your wedding - ask your guests to do so.
You can always register with ArborDay.org.
