This is community involvement!
Thousands of Macedonians took to the hills and forests yesterday to plant six million trees in a single day as part of a mass reforestation drive in the Balkan Country. "Our goal is to make Macedonian 'greener' and make people more aware of the needs of this plant." said Macedonian opera singer Boris Trajanov, who initiated the project. Thousands of people were bused to the planting sites, including more than 1,000 soldiers who planted some 200,000 seedlings. Trajanov said he hoped to spread the campaign across the whole Balkan region next year.
Wonder who donated the trees or if a fundraising campaign as well as awareness campaign was held. This is an outstanding idea. More ideas like this which involve people would be ideal.
