A number of ambassadors yesterday participated in the ‘Plant Million Tree’ initiative of the Ministry of Municipality and Environment (MME).

The event was organised by the MME represented by the Public Parks Department in collaboration with Al Wakra Municipality. Ambassadors of Iran, Argentina, the Republic of Panama, Ghana, and the Republic of Costa Rica in the country planted saplings of different trees in order to encourage such initiative. Mansour Ajran Al Buainain, Director of Al Wakra M u n i c i p a l i t y , O m a r Muhammad Al Jaber, Head of the Parks Section in Al Wakrah Municipality, and a number of officials and engineers of the Parks Section in Al-Wakrah Municipality attended the event.

The Public Parks Department at the Ministry of Municipality and Environment invites all entities, institutions and community members to contribute to the initiative because trees are of special importance in preserving the ecosystem.

The green initiative, which was launched in 2019, has helped plant thousands of trees with the participation of ministers, ambassadors, schools, community leaders, public and private companies during different events.
