You are invited to the 50th Anniversary World Environment Day, Commemorative Tree Planting. This ceremony echoes a tree-planting ceremony 40 years ago to the day of the last tree planted by the Richard St. Barbe Baker in union with the University of Saskatchewan on World Environment Day (W.E.D.), June 5, 1982, near the Diefenbaker Centre.
