Speaking at the ceremony, a representative of the General Department of Environment, Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment said: Vietnam is facing many problems in managing, developing natural resources and protecting the environment; affected by climate change, the area of primeval forests is increasingly shrinking. Therefore, the act of planting trees and protecting forests has become both an urgent task and has long-term strategic significance in minimizing the impact of climate change and environmental pollution.
