Every man ought to plant a tree once in his lifetime and that would mean an additional 5-6 billion trees. All our life, our past, our present, and our future, and all our hope and wisdom are stored in the trees. The infinite vitality of the green has to be grasped by every human being, for he alone of all the species on earth, is ignorant of its vitality and significance.
Recently Ethiopia officially launched an annual seedling plantation initiative that they have planned on a massive scale all across the nation. Deforestation is a matter of national concern in Ethiopia as it has affected the climate and economy of the drought-prone nation in North Africa.

The project is ambitious and radical, typical of past initiatives undertaken by the PM. Only 11.9% of Ethiopia is forested or about 13,000,000 hectares(around 32,000,000 acres). Forest fires, both natural
and man-made, use of wood as fuel, commercial farming and resettlement are the cause of the loss of forests in Ethiopia, which loses an average of 140.900 hectares (350,000 acres) each year.
