“Living in a boundless waste land,

we remain immobile, extending our roots deep in the earth.

Grass grows along with the wind,

and so do we, aiming for the top.

Them, gravel, boundless loess.

We, poplar, sorbifolia, sylvestris, mono maple, bush and tree.

They are half deserted.

And we, are half forested.

❖ “Song of Nature” Folk Song Concert ❖

A sensational musical banquet
Shanghai’s greenest folk song gathering
A combined show of nine musicians
Five months of intense preparation by the Roots & Shoots Think Tank
We look forward to you joining us!

On June 5th, World Environment Day, for the spark of green energy in the waste land, for the streak of sunlight on tree heads, we’re gathering a group of young musicians, bringing to you the greenest charity concert in Shanghai.

Our Unparalleled Cast

Whether you are an environmentalist, music lover, folk song fan; whether you like our theme, love our singers, or just happen to be in the mood for an afternoon of music: we sincerely invite you to our musical concert…

If you come, we will plant two trees in Horqin, Inner Mongolia under your name!

We hope to use the proceeds from this concert, to plant a forest patch in Inner Mongolia. Every ticket covers the expenses of two healthy saplings, planting & maintenance fees,  and assurance that they will successfully grow into full grown trees. This entire process will be monitored by the Shanghai Roots & Shoots’ Million Tree Project team.

COME AND HELP US PLANT A FOREST!

About Us

• Shanghai Roots & Shoots Think Tank

Shanghai Roots & Shoots Think Tank includes members from various high schools and colleges. It is responsible for organising, planning, and coordinating large annual volunteer activities, charity events and meetings.

• The Million Tree Project

Due to climate change, overgrazing, and overfarming, desertification has become one of the most severe environmental problems facing Inner Mongolia.  MTP strives to fight desertification through effective reforestation efforts. By planting different species such as poplar, sorbifolia, sylvestris, mono maple, bush & tree, we increase bio-diversity of the local environment, revigorating the land that was once deprived. MTP has reforestated 1,400 hectares of land, and the average tree survival rate is 68%.
