As Deadpool, he fights villains and megalomaniacs on the big screen. But Ryan Reynolds is fighting a different kind of baddie—the environmental kind, like climate change—when he isn’t performing in front of the cameras. On Instagram, the 40-year-old actor posted his picture with the tree he planted last year. He wrote, “A year ago, this little sprout was the 50th millionth tree @EddieBauer and @AmericanForests planted.
“This year, we embarked on [another] partnership to work toward the next 50 million, planting another 280,000 through generous customer donations. Happy birthday, buddy! #onetree.”
Ryan was later quoted, “The outdoors have always been a big part of my life, and I hope to help preserve our forests for future generations, one tree at a time.”—Rito Asilo
