Ethiopia plants over 103 million saplings
Ethiopia’s Government Communication Service said that as of July 31, it had planted more than 103 tree seedlings across the country in a single day’s Green Legacy Initiative campaign.
ENA, a partner of TV BRICS, reported that in the early hours of the morning, Ethiopia had witnessed millions of nationwide turnouts to break its record by planting 700 million saplings from dawn to dusk as part of its Green Legacy Initiative.
This year’s campaign, launched under the theme “Renewal Through Planting,” aims to plant 7.5 billion seedlings across the country during the rainy season, which typically runs from June to September.
As a state news agency, this nationwide effort underscores Ethiopia’s continued commitment to combating land degradation, enhancing climate resilience, and promoting sustainable development through its flagship environmental initiative. (TV BRICS/NAN)
