Jane Goodall's Roots & Shoots Turns 20
On February 19, 1991, Jane was at her home in Dar es Salaam, the capital of Tanzania, where she met for the first time with the first-ever members of Jane Goodall’s Roots & Shoots. Tomorrow, February 19, 2011, 20 years later, Jane joins the entire Jane Goodall Institute community in celebrating and congratulating the positive impacts that members of Jane Goodall’s Roots & Shoots have had over the last two decades.
The Roots & Shoots program is about making positive change happen—for our communities, for animals and for the environment. With hundreds of thousands of young people in more than 120 countries, the Roots & Shoots network connects youth of all ages who share a desire to create a better world. Young people identify problems in their communities and take action. Through service projects, youth-led campaigns and an interactive website, Roots & Shoots members are making a difference across the globe.

Dear Roots and Shoots, It is
Dear Roots and Shoots,
It is woderful work to get together new and old generations to create a better and more humane environment for us and for the other species to which we share the Planet.
Ms. Jane Goodall inspired me to work with and for another species-the Squirrels and to start a new Organization for their protection and welfare. We are at very, very beginning and we invite everybody who wants to help us with our first steps and who wants to participate. We aim to become part of the World Movement for the protection of non-human species , Movement that has as brilliant pioneers Dr. Jane Goodall.
Our WebPage (still in working) is: www.IOPWSquirrels.org
Sincerely,
Carmen Ghanim

I recently had the priviledge
I recently had the priviledge of meeting Jane Goodall here in Naples FL. What a beautiful and inspiring spirit she is. Thanks for sharing the 20th anniversary video. I will recommend Roots and Shoots to local organizations and my own grandchildren.
One problem with the video was a lot of buffering. We do online videos for hundreds of companies locally. Might I suggest you use Youtube to host your videos for better viewing and additional exposure. You can create your own Roots and Shoots Channel and store all of your videos there.
As Jane says "Together we can make the world a better place to live."
