Eight years. Continuous action! The Green Footprint program continues to grow stronger, driven by public commitment and the common belief that Ethiopians can build a green and sustainable tomorrow together. Today is our annual one-night national tree planting program where Ethiopians come together to leave a lasting mark that will survive for the next generation. Together with the First Lady Znash Tayah and the COP32 National Committee, we have contributed to this joint journey by leaving our mark. As we are working together to achieve the ambitious goal of planting 800 million saplings, I call on Ethiopians to continue your efforts throughout the day.
