Capital Development Authority (CDA) has made comprehensive arrangements for the up-coming Spring Tree Plantation Drive 2016.
This year, during the Spring Tree Plantation Drive, more than 300,000 saplings of different species will be planted to enhance the beauty of the city and further enhance greenery of the federal capital.
CDA has also arranged a launching ceremony of Spring Tree Plantation Drive-2016, which would be held at Fatima Jinnah (F-9) Park. Plantation drive would be participated by Islamabad Chamber of Commerce and Industries (ICCI), representatives of civil society, government and semi government departments, students of different colleges and schools, NGOs and people from different walks of life.
Environment of the city always remained top priority of the authority, while executing different development projects. For this reason, CDA will plant four trees to compensate to one chopped tree, while executing development projects. CDA also prefers to plant indigenous species, which have the ability to withstand local weather changes.
