| dc.description.abstract | Green legacy initiatives are much to be gained from altering the plantations of indigenous trees surrounding road sides, parks, and green places. One Tree Planted focus in our country Ethiopia is to rebuild animal habitat, restore soil and critical watersheds, all while improving the lives of the communities who rely on the forests the most. As trees grow, they help stop climate change by removing carbon dioxide from the air, storing carbon in the trees and soil, and releasing oxygen into the atmosphere. The main environmental problems impacting, aside from climate change, are soil erosion and land degradation, deforestation and forest degradation, water scarcity, biodiversity loss, and several forms of pollution, global warming, overpopulation, waste disposal, ocean acidification, loss of biodiversity, deforestation, and ozone layer depletion are a few of the pressing challenges. Not only, the political leaders, stakeholders as well as directly concerned bodies and the community at all plant the seedlings but also, the foreign country like Heads of UN Agencies and staff of the United Nations in Ethiopia planted trees in Addis Ababa in support of the Green Legacy Initiative, a go-green campaign to counter the effects of deforestation and climate change. “The Green Legacy Initiative “Launched in 2019 by Ethiopia Government, the Green Legacy initiative is part of the Government’s plan to plant 20 billion seedlings by 2024 .Green Legacy Initiative is aligned with the priorities of the Government of Ethiopia’s (GoE) national development plan and strategy. Ethiopia. Since 2011, it has been preparing and implementing its climate resilient and net-zero carbon emission development strategy. In his address, strengthening the Enabling Environment for Clean Cooking Sector Phase II Project Manager, Dr. Gessesse Dessie, urged participants to plant trees for a sustainable future for the next generation. He added, 'Trees are not just wood. Their leaves, branches, trunk, and roots percolate raindrops in the soil. This water later springs out and flows to a river. The most utilized humble river that never leaves Ethiopia only to remain sunk inland.' Furthermore, he stressed that making sure the seedlings grow into trees, will ensure the Green Legacy initiative for three consecutive years . The year 2021 tree planting is held under the motto ’Let’s make Ethiopia greener'. Assessing the impact of Green Legacy initiative on the environment research was undertaken in Entoto Park where one of the interesting Green Legacy initiative center in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia | en_US |
