Walk for Change

Have you ever complained about the air quality?

Have you ever worried about climate change?

Are you concerned with your health due to lack of exercise?

Let’s take action and change for the better.

Ericsson Shanghai initiated a challenge WALK FOR CHANGE. Participants completed a 10km or 20km hike within 3 hours and contributed to the Million Tree Project in Inner Mongolia.  We passed on the challenge in a way similar to the ice bucket challenge.

Ericsson staff selected between a 10km hike within 3 hours and a 20km hike within 3 hours and took the walk on Jan.17 2015 at Gu Cun Park.  Meanwhile they had to pass on the challenge to 3 more colleagues, who could choose to either take on the same challenge or to sponsor the challenger at RMB5/km, which would be 50RMB for a 10km (2 trees in Inner Mongolia) or 100RMB for a 20km walk (4 trees in Inner Mongolia).

By the end of the event, Ericsson had contributed 157 trees to MTP and the Ericsson forest is expanding!
