The Presidency’s Head of Communications, Prof. Burhanettin Duran, shared a message on his NSosyal account on the occasion of 11 November National Afforestation Day.
In his message shared on NSosyal, Head of Communications Duran said:
“11 November National Afforestation Day, declared in 2019 under the leadership of our President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, is an important expression of our determination to protect our Green Homeland and leave a more liveable environment for future generations.
This year’s afforestation efforts, carried out under the motto ‘A Breath for the Future, Peace for the World’, also lend special significance to COP31, held in Antalya under Türkiye’s hosting and presidency.
We are aware that combating climate change requires not only decisions taken at international meetings but also concrete steps to protect and preserve nature.
With the hope that every sapling planted will breathe new life into a greener Türkiye and a more liveable world, I extend my gratitude to everyone who has contributed to this meaningful mobilisation and convey my best wishes on 11 November National Afforestation Day.”
