The “Plant for Pakistan” initiative, in collaboration with the Military Land and Cantonment Board and the Punjab Forest Department, is set to launch a significant tree planting campaign in Murree on August 24, 2024. This campaign is a key component of the Green Pakistan program, aimed at boosting environmental conservation efforts across the region.
The tree planting will cover the entire Murree tehsil, with notable assistance from Pakistan Army helicopters that will help disperse seeds throughout the area.
