Read the passage and write short answers to the following questions.
In January 2007, when Felix Finkbeiner was nine years old, he did a project on climate change at his primary school in Starnberg, Germany. While preparing for the project, he came across the story of Wangari Maathai, a Kenyan woman who started a tree-campaign in 1977 and won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2004. He thought her campaign was a great idea, so he decided to talk about it in class. In his presentation, he suggested that children should plant one million trees in each country of the world. Two months later, Felix planted his first tree and started a campaign to plant a million trees. He called his campaign ‘Plant for the Planet’. In 2011, Felix made his speech at the United Nations. He asked world leaders to ‘stop talking – start planting’. In the same year, his campaign reached its goal of planting one million trees in Germany. Felix also asked some people to help him make his own chocolate bar, and for every five bars sold, a tree gets planted. Now, ‘The Change Chocolate’ bar has become a best-selling chocolate bar in Germany. Today, Felix is 21, ‘Plant-for-the-Planet’ employs 130 people internationally and has trained more than 81,000 children in 73 countries.
