Macedonia today will join the worldwide tree planting campaign, launched by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP).
Under the Plant for the Planet: Billion Tree Campaign, people, communities, business and industry, civil society organizations and governments are encouraged to the objective of planting at least one billion trees worldwide during 2007.
In the course of national campaign against climate change "Our climate changes - We must change too!" 28.000 trees will be planted - 1.000 trees in areas surrounding 28 cities in Macedonia.
Tree planting will be carried out on Friday near the village of Volkovo, along Skopje by-pass road.
The planting was initiated by civic association Front 21/42, in co-operation with the Blue Sky youth network, through financial assistance of the British Embassy in Macedonia.
MD: Nice campaign! The British Ambassador Andrew Key and the Environment Minister Xhelil Bajrami will be the first to plant trees.
