We are a scout association of the city of Split and so far we have organized numerous afforestations. In addition to the largest afforestation campaign in the burned areas in Europe, Boranka, which planted over 100,000 seedlings, we organized the project Green, I love you green (according to a poem by F. G. Lorca), in which volunteers planted nearly 8,000 seedlings through ESC. All these seedlings desperately need our help, because they are small and, until they grow so that they can maintain themselves, they need water.
In this way, we contribute to climate and environmental recovery, as well as strengthening the resilience of our community to crises caused by global climate change.
