El dia del Arbol ???????? hay personas que entienden eso....

i have seen this message over the last few days quite a lot and was wondering if anyone had any ideas on where this originates from, if it celebrated in colombia or all of the latin american countries...or any body knows how exactly does one celebrate this special day......by throwing a glass of aguadiente over the tree stump or roots and saying...'Salud mi arbolito'.........i remember down in Bolivia and Peru they worship and have a ceremony for mother earth of something...mama tierra but this is different i believe to protect the indigeanous miners there..

thanks for any ideas or thoughts

Amazon River: The massive Amazon River dumps between 9 million and 32 million gallons of water per second into the Atlantic Ocean. It has more than 1,000 known tributaries, and 17 of those are at least 1,000 miles long. No bridges cross the river, whose main stream is 50 miles wide.
