E3 International throught its SLLEI initiative and Balkan Energy and Forestry Trend (BEFT), together with their partner CIFOR/ICRAF and with the generous support of the German Development Agency (GIZ) proudly joined the SBB Foundation’s widespread afforestation campaign “Let there be more forests. Let us breathe better!” by donating 100,000 cuttings of willow, which will be planted next to water bodies and in moist areas throughout Serbia. The first willows have already been planted in Nis (1,200 cuttings) and Valjevo (5,000 cuttings), and will be continued in Loznica, Trstenik, Zrenjanin and Ljubovija during the upcoming period. “Let there be more forests. Let us breathe better!” is a part of the SBB Foundation’s long-term campaign “Don’t litter. You have no excuse!”.
The goal of this campaign, which will be implemented in cooperation with local self-governments and schools, is to make Serbia as green as possible, for the youngest to learn the true importance of trees and, in general, to raise awareness of the public about the necessity to actively contribute to the protection and improvement of the environment.
Dusan Jovic, on behalf of E3 International and BEFT said: “We started implementing this initiative two years ago related to sustainable land management, improvement of living conditions and, of course, sustainable energy. Through the popularization of this initiative, we are trying to, in some way, accustom our citizens to the idea of turning this to a regular activity and something that should gradually transition to a habit”.
