诗云：“年年岁岁花相似，岁岁年年人不同。”百万植树计划的项目团队早就习惯了铁打的植树流程和流水般的志愿者们。
今年却有一个熟悉的面孔再次来到了上海根与芽百万植树计划的内蒙古植树之行，这在参与活动的学生志愿者中算是绝无仅有的，他就是来自上海中芯国际学校（SMIC）的Jesse。虽然在交流时保持镇定，但他还是在最后告别时流下了激动的泪水。百万植树计划自发起至今已经坚持了整整十一年，Jesse连续来了三年。
The procedure of tree planting doesn’t change every year but the volunteers do. Therefore, it’s rare to see anyone joining the April planting trip more than once. Jesse from SMIC school is an exception. He has been with MTP since 2016, and this is his third and last time to Inner Mongolia before he moves to US for university. It’s certainly hard for him to say goodbye.
今年的植树之行注定是与以往不同，在第一批队伍抵蒙之后下了雪，在第二批和第三批队伍活动期间下了雨。。对于在当地植树来说，下雨自然是好事，然而再往深想一层，这种不寻常的气候，不就是气候变化愈演愈烈的预警吗？面对逐渐变化的环境，我们更需要坚定地去抵御环境变化的伤害。百万植树计划用植树对气候变化大声说：“不！”
This year’s planting trip was exceptional. The temperature changed dramatically from below zero to 15 degrees Celsius during the 10 days. It snowed on the first trip but rained in the next two. The abnormal weather is a warning of climate change. In an effort to raise awareness of the local environmental issues, MTP started to organize the planting trip years ago.

截止至2018年4月16日，共计来自7所学校、17家机构与企业的154名志愿者参与了这次的内蒙古植树之行，在他们的努力之下共种下了1110棵树。除了植树之外，有关土壤形成和植被作用的相关讲解课程，以及为往年林地修枝等环节也大受好评。
By the 16th of April, 154 volunteers from seven schools and 17 companies joined the trip and planted 1,110 trees. Apart from tree planting, sessions like pruning and demonstration experiments were also welcomed by the participants.

百万植树计划在此感谢所有坚持支持项目的赞助商和同学们。在你们的努力之下，百万植树计划才能有种植2,134,400棵树的成绩。为了感谢赞助商和学校的付出，百万植树计划推出的每年一度的植树之行为不少参与者提供了身临其境的机会，感受当地环境从恶化到逐渐改善的过程。
Seeing off all the volunteers, MTP continues its work for this initiative in the 12th year. Again, the team would like to give special thanks to the continuous support from the sponsor companies and schools. You are the reason that MTP can make it to 2,134,400 trees and bring change to local environment and livelihood.
