DISTRIBUTION OF 4000 FOREST SEEDLINGS TO MUNICIPALITIES IN IQLIM AL-KHAROUB REGION, AT THE ENVIRONMENT MINISTER’S INITIATIVE

Iqlim al-Kharoub Association for Social Development distributed 4,000 seedlings of various forest trees to a number of municipalities and associations in the Iqlim al-Kharoub region, following an initiative by Caretaker Minister of Environment Nasser Yassin.

This comes as part of an environmental cooperation protocol between the Ministry of Environment and “Wilco” company, which provided the seedlings, and the Association of Reforestation in Lebanon, which coordinates the reforestation process in several regions.

The initiative aims to combat climate change by increasing green areas, as well as confronting random logging and fires to restore environmental balance to forests and natural reserves in Lebanon.
