A PARTING GIFT…

When leaving Hong Kong, the client presented me and my co-worker with these AWESOME Baby Tree trinkets. It’s basically a tree (that looks like a real tree in a small glass container). It’s also a seed that you water, and the tree grows. You can even transplant it to the ground once it gets big enough. The gift is actually part of a new merchandising program they are launching, which plants trees in a conservation site. Every purchase of this item comes with a certificate, as well as the latitude and longitude coordinates of where your real tree is planted at the conservation site. You even get uploaded to Google earth, so everyone can see exactly where your tree is planted. I thought this was the coolest, and most creative gift ever. It’s not yet commercially available, so I couldn’t get it for all my faithful readers… but who knows, someday. I haven’t downloaded all the software to see it myself, but here’s the coordinates:


Sector: 105 WWF HK
Tree ID: WWF 2805
Latitude: -8.46481
Longitude: 116.56558
