Clean Maldives Presents GoGreen Tree Planting Event!

Step outside of your house and take a look around for the trees that are planted at your environment. While they are all pretty to look at, their importance stems beyond for their beauty. The value and purpose of trees is enormous! And their existence is vital for our survival.

Not only do they produce oxygen while combating global warming by absorbing carbon dioxide, they help to prevent flooding and soil erosion, by absorbing thousands of liters of water. From birds and insects, to bats and lizards, trees provide a canopy and a habitat for many species of wildlife. But they don’t just act as a home for them, the trees provide fruits as food for them too.

Trees help to improve air quality by intercepting and trapping dust and other pollutants from the air. The shade of trees also provides a useful barrier to harmful ultra-violet radiation from the sun. But it’s not just our physical health that benefits, our mental health does too. When surrounded by trees or taking part in nature-based activities, stress and depression levels can be significantly reduced.

So, as you can see, humans, animals and the environment depend upon trees for survival. Therefore, as deforestation continues, we must put back what we’re taking away. By planting more trees, it will contribute to global reforestation efforts, restoring lost forests, repairing damaged ecosystems and mitigating climate changes.

This year, Clean Maldives has aimed to plant 3000 trees! Join the GoGreen Event taking place at Hulhumale’ Phase 2, and give your contribution as part of the regime! Clean Maldives is known for their successful environmentally friendly events in the past.
