Changwon Special City Holds Japanese Cypress Planting Event for the 81st Arbor Day
Creating Green Forests for Future Generations
On March 25, Changwon Special City in Gyeongnam held a tree planting event in celebration of the 81st Arbor Day at San 11, Yulti-ri, Jinjeon-myeon, Masanhappo-gu.
This year's tree planting site carries special significance, as all pine trees infested by pine wilt disease were removed and replaced with Japanese cypress (hinoki), a change of species aimed at restoring a healthy forest ecosystem and expanding carbon sinks for future generations.
Approximately 80 participants, including public officials and citizens, joined the event as part of the ‘Big Tree Afforestation Project’ and planted 750 four-year-old Japanese cypress trees. In addition, a resolution was adopted to pledge active wildfire prevention and monitoring during the special spring wildfire prevention period.
