The tweet was sent at 3 p.m. and contained no other information than the fact that close-toed shoes were required and food would be provided. Most people couldn’t rally ten college students to get up and arrive at 7 a.m. on a Friday, but MrBeast isn’t most people. With one tweet less than a day in advance, hundreds and hundreds of teenagers and college students arrived in the dark at the Springeld bus station at 7 a.m., and from there, 100 of them were taken to an undisclosed location by bus. So what were they headed to do? Back in May, MrBeast asked his subscribers what he should do to celebrate hitting the 20 million subscriber mark. Two Reddit memes later, he decided that he was going to plant 20 million trees to help tackle the issue of global warming. After loading up on the buses, MrBeast and 100 of his followers from the Springeld and Eugene area headed out to an empty eld nearby, where they spent the whole day digging and planting 1,700 new trees. While 1,700 trees is nothing to sco at, it’s nowhere close to the 20 million trees that MrBeast had set as his goal. But the video, which was lmed right here in Eugene, now has over 32 million views. Using the video and his platform as a creator, MrBeast started #teamtrees and teamed up with the Arbor Day Foundation and other huge YouTubers to try to reach his goal of 20 million trees. The Arbor Day Foundation is a nonprot organization dedicated to planting and nurturing trees around the world. When they partnered up with MrBeast, they agreed that for every dollar donated, one tree would be planted and cared for. Since the video, the donations have come tumbling in. MrBeast started o by donating 100,000 dollars, and dared someone to top it. Alan Walker, a Norwegian DJ, then donated 100,001 dollars, which MrBeast topped with another donation of 100,002 dollars and a dare for someone to top him again. As of now, ve other individuals have contributed larger amounts. https://www.dailyemerald.com/arts-culture/mrbeast-is-planting-20-million-trees-and-it-sprouted-right-here/article_1f0b165a-0105-11ea-b718-5b6d845d… 2/3 10/30/2020 MrBeast is planting 20 million trees and it sprouted right here | Arts & Culture | dailyemerald.com Jean-Michel Lemieux, the chief technology ocer for Shopify, donated 100,100 dollars ‒ which translates to $ in binary ‒ with the caption “We are Groot. For sneaker Twitter.” Susan Wojcicki, the CEO of Twitter, donated 200,000 dollars, and Jack Dorsey, the CEO and co- founder of Twitter, donated 350,000 dollars. But the two biggest donations by far came from Elon Musk and Tobi Lutke. After hearing about the project, Musk, the founder of SpaceX, Tesla and PayPal tweeted out “Ok, sounds legit, will donate 1M trees.” He then proceeded to donate one million dollars by himself, with the note under the donation reading simply “for Treebeard,” a character from Lord of The Rings. Less than a day after Musk’s donation, Lutke, the CEO and founder of Shopify, donated 1,000,001 dollars to celebrate Shopify’s one-millionth merchant with the caption “For the Lorax.” As of today, 13,018,188 trees have been planted and the trend doesn’t look like it’s slowing down anytime soon. YouTube agreed to donate a million dollars, and on November 5th, the number one trending video on YouTube was titled “I plant 20,000,000 trees in Minecraft.” The video was created by PewDiePie, the world’s largest YouTube creator, who donated 69,420 dollars to #teamtrees. MrBeast is truly using his platform for good, and there isn’t a more tting place to kick o a movement like this than right here in Eugene, Oregon.

  • Global Tree Planting with Purpose and Power
    Global Tree Planting with Purpose and Power Partnership Study: Social media influencers inspire large-scale action among a new generation of tree planters What started as a callout on the social media platform Reddit quickly turned into an environmental force, driven by a new audience of tree planters. #TeamTrees — a collective effort with YouTube creators to inspire support for tree planting around the globe — took social media by storm in the fall of 2019. The campaign was one of the fastest-growing environmental fundraising initiatives to date and the largest crowdfunding effort in YouTube’s history. A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY #TeamTrees began with YouTube influencers MrBeast (Jimmy Donaldson, widely followed for his creative philanthropy) and Mark Rober (former NASA scientist) accepting a challenge to plant 20 million trees in honor of MrBeast’s 20 millionth subscriber. They chose to collaborate with the Arbor Day Foundation in managing the campaign to leverage three of its key strengths: ➊ Unique Position: The Foundation is uniquely equipped to handle a tree planting project of this scale and scope. ➋ Integrity: A commitment to planting the right tree in the right place for the right reasons. ➌ Credibility: A proven track record of working with a network of partners to deliver results. The goal was to raise $20 million by January 1, 2020. Each dollar raised would plant a tree, and trees would be planted on every continent except Antarctica. Hundreds of other content creators on YouTube and other social platforms were recruited to help lead the charge, and everyone involved developed unique content to drive their viewers to donate on TeamTrees.org in support of tree planting.

    WMHSMUN XXXIV YouTube Creators Forum Background Guide “Unprecedented committees. Unparalleled debate. Unmatched fun.” Letter From the Director Dear Delegates, My name is Sam Clark, and I have the honor of directing the YouTube Creators Forum for WMHSMUN XXXIV. I can’t wait to work with you all this fall, and I’m excited to see the direction you take our committee in, as I know it’ll be engaging and fun. Let me start by saying I’ve been on YouTube for as long as I can remember and observing how this platform has shaped the world of social media has fascinated me for a while. So needless to say, being able to dive into the international politics of YouTube is incredibly fun for me, and hopefully we can make it just as fun for you. As for my background, I’m a junior at William and Mary from a small town called Cranford, New Jersey. So far, I’ve been involved with every conference we’ve had here in my time at the university, but I also study English and Hispanic Studies. That’s right, you don’t have to be a government or international relations major to like MUN! Though I only did it a little bit in high school, I’ve found a renewed interest for it in college. In my free time, however, I like to game, write, watch films, and explore YouTube. YouTube has been a part of my weekly routine ever since I could access a computer. I became a part of the earliest communities and fandoms, and as the platform evolved, so did my interests and subscriptions.
