MELVILLE, N.Y., April 3, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- A mature, leafy tree produces as much oxygen in one season as ten people inhale in a year[1]. JASON^® brand, a leader in the natural personal care category, is partnering with Earth Day Network's Canopy Project to create enough oxygen to fill thousands of lungs across the globe with a program that will result in the donation of 5,000 new trees to be planted.

From April 1^st through 30^th, JASON^®, a brand long known for its pioneering spirit, will host a program through its Facebook page allowing consumers to do their part for the environment in celebration of Earth Day. For every new "like" on the JASON^® page during this time frame, one tree will be planted via the Canopy Project.  

The Canopy Project has already planted over 1.5 million trees in 18 countries.  The partnership with JASON^® will help bring them closer to achieving the organization's goal of planting ten million more over the next five years. As unpredictable weather, increasingly frequent and violent storms, floods and fires have created devastating soil erosion, Earth Day Network (EDN) is relying on the support of sponsors like JASON^® to dramatically increase the number of trees planted for soil cover.

Earth Day Network's mission is to broaden, diversify and mobilize the environmental movement. EDN coordinates Earth Day, mobilizing over one billion people in 192 countries every year on environmental challenges impacting health, quality of life and the natural world.  Each year, the trees planted via their Canopy Project help communities – especially in the world's impoverished areas – sustain themselves and their local economies. In many cases, these lands have been damaged by fire, flood or stripped bare of trees by logging.

"The JASON^® name means 'healer' in Greek. We stay true to our mission to create innovative personal care products that are safer for us, our families and the planet," says Nathalie Yin , Director, Marketing of Hain Celestial Personal Care. "As deforestation has compromised the economic and environmental stability of communities around the world, we're thrilled to be aligned with a charitable initiative that helps 'heal' forests and their associated communities. We're all very proud to be doing our small part."
