According to the order of the President of Mongolia, the National Tree Planting Day is held every year. And this year, the second phase of the national movement starts.
In the framework, the National Tree Planting Day will continue until the end of May. During these days, over 300 organizations will plant trees in 8 locations of the capital city, and 4 million trees are planned to be planted in 33 locations in 21 provinces.
By doing this, citizens and organizations are having an opportunity to join the tree planting campaign without the pressure of time.
42 million trees have been planted since the beginning of the "Billion Trees'' national movement. About 8% of the total territory of Mongolia is forest. If 50% of the total territory can be afforested in the future, an ecosystem for comfortable living will be created.
The deterioration of the ecosystem in Mongolia has started to affect the healthy and safe living conditions of citizens, as well as the economy of the country. Therefore, an important and short-term measure to address this is planting trees.
