Barbara's Costa Rican co-host, Janine – the founder of the “Kids Saving the Rainforest” (KSTR) foundation – needs help with a reforestation project and issues Barbara a challenge: to plant a target number of trees in one hour. Barb accepts, but wants to learn more about the rainforest first. Janine is just the one to teach her: KSTR raises money to help protect the forest and its endangered animals. She takes Barb canopying through the trees, for a “heightened” knowledge of the forest. |
