Community Tree Planting: Intergenerational Afforestation,

Commitment to a "Net Zero 2050" Green Future

On the afternoon of March 21, the first stop of the "Shaoguan Charity Walk" was held in Beiyue Village, Zhangshi Town. CIGL Chairman Mr. Kenneth LO and CIGL Vice-Chairman & YCCT Chairman Mrs. Yvonne LO led colleagues from Hong Kong Headquarters, DCKG, YJ, CMZS, and YD, together with teachers, students, and volunteers, to plant 6,000 moso bamboo seedlings with high carbon sequestration capacity. CIGL has been promoting ecological tree planting projects for 18 years since 2007, with over 3,900 acres of afforestation and forest quality enhancement completed in Qujiang over the years.

CIGL Chairman Mr. Kenneth LO emphasized in his ceremony speech: "All things need fertile soil to take root. The growth of a tree is inseparable from fertile soil; similarly, Crystal's green tree planting project cannot succeed without the support of all parties." He added: "Seeing more than 400 partners here today deeply moves me. Among you are the backbone of CIGL and the future of our society. This is a touching scene of intergenerational vitality. Every seedling we plant today is breathing for the Earth. By stepping outdoors today, everyone is standing at the forefront of ecological protection."
