Laos is going green in a big way! 🌳 The country has announced plans to plant a staggering 34 million trees across 42,000 hectares of land this year, ramping up efforts to achieve 70% forest cover by 2025. Talk about a leafy glow-up! 💚
Kicking off the initiative, Laos’ Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry will plant 3.5 million saplings on June 1 to mark National Arbor Day—a move straight out of Mother Nature’s playbook. 🎉 Schools, colleges, and local communities are also joining forces with forestry authorities to green up public spaces, roadsides, and parks. Think #TeamTrees meets Southeast Asia!
With deforestation challenges lingering, this mega-project could be a game-changer for Laos’ ecosystems and climate resilience. Who knew homework could include planting trees? 📚🌿
