* helping to offset net deforestation of 14 billion trees equivalent of 2025% of global CO2 emissions (in Phase II which seeks to plant 7 trees per child)
* increasing access to safe water, clean energy, healthy food
* limit global warming to 2.2 degrees
* supporting development of Power of One School kits
