Xbox Quests and Microsoft Rewards programs have long been a way for Microsoft users to gain points through various tasks, redeeming them for free Xbox Game Pass subscriptions, gift cards, and more. But there’s another way for users to make an impact: by participating in MSN Weather’s “Plant a Tree” initiative, where simple actions translate into small, but real, environmental benefits.
What Is the MSN Weather “Plant a Tree” Program?
The “Plant a Tree” program allows users to contribute toward tree planting efforts around the world by simply completing weather-related activities on the MSN Weather platform. Each completed action goes toward Microsoft’s contribution to tree planting efforts with their partners. The program is easy to use and fits seamlessly into any user’s routine by requiring only simple clicks or quick checks of the weather map.
How Can Users Get Involved?
For those already familiar with Microsoft Rewards and Xbox Quests, MSN Weather’s program offers similar simplicity. Tasks include:
- Checking the Weather: Simply open MSN Weather, check the local weather, and gain points towards tree planting.
- Exploring Weather Maps: Navigate around the interactive weather maps to complete tasks and make contributions.
- Reporting local Weather: Report weather changes in your area and complete another easy task.
- Clicking on Climate Facts: Some tasks involve reading short climate facts or forecasts, which not only educate, but also add to the points needed for tree planting.
These activities don’t require any special skills or additional costs, making it easy to integrate environmental impact into daily routines. Just as you’re done with your Microsoft Quests, hop to the Weather tab and do the Weather tasks. One extra minute a day is enough!
How to Start
- Go to MSN Weather and sign in with your Microsoft account.
- Look for “Plant a Tree” prompts as you explore the weather map, check the forecast, or set up alerts.
- Complete the activities each day or whenever you check the weather.
- You can also use the Bing app on mobile to access the Weather app within, and complete extra tasks. Much quicker if you already use Bing on mobile for your Microsoft Rewards points.
Why the Program Matters
Trees are vital to fighting climate change, with benefits including absorbing CO₂, improving air quality, and providing habitats for wildlife. Microsoft has pledged to reduce its environmental impact, and this initiative is part of this effort, helping combat deforestation and improve the global ecosystem.
For those who already complete Xbox Quests or earn Microsoft Rewards points regularly, joining the MSN Weather “Plant a Tree” program is a natural next step. It turns everyday actions into impactful, eco-friendly contributions without any extra effort. So, next time you check the weather, remember that a few clicks can help make a difference for the environment.
