Addis Ababa, July 30, 2025 (FMC) — Ethiopia is once again poised to demonstrate its commitment to a greener, more resilient future, Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed affirmed today.
“Tomorrow, beginning at 6 a.m., as part of our Green Legacy Initiative, we aim to plant an ambitious 700 million seedlings in a single day — a goal that embodies the strength, unity, and unwavering determination of our people,” the Prime Minister emphasized in a statement shared via social media this morning.
“This effort transcends mere tree planting,” Abiy stressed. “It is a clarion call for every Ethiopian — young and old, urban and rural alike — to engage actively in restoring our environment, safeguarding our precious water resources, enhancing livelihoods, and securing a sustainable legacy for generations yet to come.”
He concluded with a heartfelt appeal for collective action: “Let us all mobilize and participate in this historic campaign. Together, we will nurture not only trees but also a stronger, greener Ethiopia.”
