Re:Online Ordering Real Saplings Planted? (Score 1)

Hi Doc Ruby,

Last week New York social media agency Converseon, in partnership with Colorado non-profit Plant it 2020, launched an island in Second Life where you can buy a virtual tree and have a corresponding tree planted in the real world.

You can visit the island in SL here: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Second%20Chance%20Tree s/139/127/31/

For 300 Linden (a bit over US$1) you can purchase and plant a virtual copy of one of 10 species of rainforest tree. This will spur the planting of a matching tree in an endangered rainforest area in the real world by Plant It 2020.

If you'd like to learn more about it, you can check out our media release here: http://www.prweb.com/releases/second-life/converse on/prweb518283.htm
