HSBC staff have planted trees in the park for two consecutive years on National Tree-Planting Day. HSBC China has made the long-term commitment to look after these trees as a way to improve the ecology in Shanghai and to increase staff awareness of environmental issues. There are currently 80 trees in the area and HSBC has committed more than US$25,000 for their care over the next three years.
