The message reads, in part:
“Our country has the largest forest reserves in the world. The conservation and rational use of this unique national asset are rightfully among the state’s key priorities. It is therefore encouraging that such serious initiatives as yours contribute directly to addressing these important tasks. With its noble mission, your initiative unites hundreds of thousands of people of all ages and professions across all regions of Russia. They sincerely strive to contribute to expanding our forest wealth and restoring ecosystems damaged by fires and other natural disasters. The scale of this work is truly impressive: in recent years, about three hundred million trees have already been planted by you.
I am confident that your campaign will continue to attract wide participation, contribute to fostering a responsible attitude toward nature in society and promoting environmental culture, especially among the younger generation.”
