Tuna changamoto kubwa sana ya ukame miaka ya hivi karibuni hasa mikoa ya kanda ya kati. Pia, tuna changamoto kubwa sana ya ukataji miti. Upandaji miti ni suluhisho la kuitunza Tanzania ya kesho.
Ofisi ya Makamu wa Rais Mazingira ituongoze kwenye huu mpango uwe wa kitaifa. Wenzetu wameiweka siku ya leo kuwa holiday. Tuikijanishe Tanzania ya kesho. Tuchukue hatua sasa.

The Kenyan government has declared that Monday will be a “special holiday” in which people nationwide will be expected to plant trees to help with the country’s land restoration efforts.
Kithure Kindiki, cabinet secretary for the Interior and Administration of National Government in Kenya, made the announcement in a post on X on Monday in which he wrote, “the public across the Country shall be expected to plant trees as a patriotic contribution to the national efforts to save our Country from the devastating effects of Climate Change.”
Posting an official notice declaring November 13, 2023 to be National Tree Growing Day, Kindiki added that those with national exams that day “shall proceed normally.”
The exercise will form part of Kenya’s Landscape and Ecosystem Restoration Program, which aims to grow and nurture 15 billion trees by 2032 to restore and conserve 10.6 million hectares of degraded landscapes and ecosystems, according to the notice.
There will be a national venue and 47 county venues dedicated to the tree planting, “where all Kenyan citizens and the general public will be expected to participate,” the notice said.
Kenya’s forest cover decreased from 12% to just 6% between 1990 and 2010, according to the United Nation's Food Agricultural Organization (FAO). In 2022, the figure went up to 9%, according to the Kenya Forest Service, which said in a post on X on Monday that it “welcomes all Kenyans to mark the celebration” by planting trees.
