Is there such a thing as too much greenery?
stc has planted 7000 trees of Al Ghaf, Sidr and Al Gardh in the southern areas of Bahrain as part of their “Trees for Life” campaign. In cooperation with the Supreme Council for Environment and the Ministry of Works, Municipalities Affairs and Urban Planning, it’s the largest national afforestation campaign we’ve seen in Bahrain, yet!
“Trees for Life” campaign contributes highly to adapting to climate change, reducing carbon emissions, and reducing temperatures! The desert trees such as Al Ghaf, Sidr and Al Gardh are known for their drought-tolerance, which can remain green even in harsh desert environments.
stc Bahrain Chief Government Affairs Officer Shaikh Zeyad Bin Faisal Al Khalifa, said:
“stc Bahrain is actively striving to increase the green spaces and to reach a more sustainable environment in Bahrain. We are delighted to see our Trees for Life campaign is expanding to different areas around Bahrain, particularly in the southern areas, where we have covered areas in the desert, in around the Bahrain Golf Club and Al Hunaneeya park, with trees that suit these areas which extends its benefits to the areas such as reducing dust and sand storms, and we aim to cover more areas in the near future.”
Greener better tomorrow!
